Hello Mrs. XXXXXXX

Thank you for writing to us with your health query.

The best doctor to consult for your problem of slurred speech would be a "NEUROLOGIST". That is because a sudden onset slurring of speech could mean some problem with the brain hence consulting a brain doctor would be the right choice.

Hope this answers your question. Please write back if you have any more questions.

Wishing you good health.
