By: Aprill Murphy

Albion, NE (July 30, 2025) –Boone County Health Center (BCHC) is pleased to welcome Melodie Look, MS, CCC-SLP, to its rehabilitation team as a Speech Language Pathologist.

Look brings over 17 years of experience in the field, with a strong background in serving patients across skilled nursing facilities, assisted living, outpatient clinics, and acute hospital settings. She earned her Master of Science in Speech Language Pathology from Fort Hays State University in Hays, Kansas, and holds a Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA).

Her passion for speech therapy began early, inspired by working with her cousin who has cerebral palsy and observing her progress during speech sessions.

At BCHC, Look provides comprehensive speech therapy services, including evaluation and treatment for voice, swallowing, and cognitive challenges. She also offers pediatric speech therapy.

“Speech therapy is so much more than helping someone talk—it’s about addressing communication, swallowing, voice, and cognition for people of all ages,” said Look. “I’m excited to work locally and have the opportunity to directly impact the health and well-being of this community.”

Look grew up in Stockton, Kansas, and now lives in Albion with her husband, Chris, and their son, Cole. She enjoys traveling and spending time with family in her free time.

She will be available to see patients Monday through Friday at Boone County Health Center. For more information or to schedule an appointment with Melodie Look, please contact Boone County Health Center’s rehabilitation department at 402-395-3113.
