Speech Delay

Asked for Male, 8 years

My son is 3.10 years old he is a CHD kid born with univentricular heart and operated twice for this. Problem is he speak words like mama baba behan bhaiya etc and still he cannot pronounce some words. I have consulted many docs they said that he will speak. it's normal to have speech delay till 4 years of age. I have given him vasodil-G,Aminorex and ceregin for this purpose. I wanted to ask that does he need a speech therapy??
