Providing exceptional pediatric therapy services has always been our mission, and we’re excited to expand that commitment to even more families in Lexington!
When we first opened Hogg Therapy Pediatrics in 2014, we had a simple goal: to provide compassionate, high-quality therapy to children who need it. Over the years, thanks to an incredible team, mentors, and the support of so many wonderful families, we’ve grown—expanding our services and opening multiple locations, including in Lexington.
At the beginning of 2025, Wilson Pediatric Therapy approached us with an opportunity to ensure that their patients could continue receiving the care they deserve. We are honored to step in and help this clinic continue to grow—supporting both the amazing families and dedicated employees who call it home.
On March 26, 2025, Wilson Pediatrics will officially transition to Hogg Therapy. We are so grateful for this opportunity and look forward to making this a seamless, positive experience for everyone. Our team is excited to continue providing great therapy services and welcoming even more families into the Hogg Therapy community.

His mom and I joked that he went from Donnie Thornberry to Bruno Mars! Such a special moment for this autistic boy because he made the decision to get the haircut, he chose the barber online, he picked the hairstyle he wanted, and he made his mom invite me to come cause he knew he needed the support!…I can’t stop sobbing at his bravery, self advocacy, and his progress, as I’ve been seeing him since he was 2yo…I’m so blessed to be in this job and to be able to share the changes we make in these family’s lives.” β€οΈππ

Welcome to part 4 of our Adaptive Equipment series! This week, we’re learning about activity chairs with the help of our friend Slade and his speech therapist, Miss Megan!
An activity chair provides physical and sensory support to a client to allow for increased attention to a task, whether that’s feeding, fine-motor skills, or general play-based learning! While sitting in the activity chair, Slade uses an AAC device to effectively communicate. He’s also working on his fine-motor skills by picking up and eating the snacks he requested!
Make sure to leave a comment to tell us about your experiences with an activity chair or if you have a question! We would love to celebrate your experience or answer any questions you have. And thanks to all the therapists, parents, and patients who shared their stories about adaptive equipment this month! #hoggtherapypediatrics #adaptiveequipment #activitychair #speechtherapy #occupationaltherapy #physicaltherapy

Welcome to part 3 of our Adaptive Equipment series! This week, we’re learning about the dynamic stander with the help of PT Jacob and his buddy, Hayden!
A dynamic stander allows for a fully supported standing position that places a client in a fully weight-bearing position. Being fully weight-bearing allows for effective bone development and muscle strengthening for overall stability and development. Watch as Hayden pops bubbles while using the dynamic stander!
Dynamic standers are portable and easy to use, making them great for a wide range of activities, like puzzles, snacking, handwriting, or any type of play-based learning.
Make sure to leave a comment to tell us about your experiences with a dynamic stander or if you have a question! We would love to celebrate your experience or answer any questions you have. See you next Monday for part 4! #hoggtherapy #hoggtherapypediatrics #physicaltherapy #adaptiveequipment #dynamicstander
