Our services encompass all types of dysphagia for individuals of all ages, including infants, children, and adults. We work to ensure safe and enjoyable mealtimes by evaluating and managing issues such as difficulty swallowing, food aversion, and aspiration risks. Our tailored plans aim to improve feeding efficiency and comfort, helping you achieve better swallowing function and a more satisfying dining experience.
Mobile FEES Services
To enhance accessibility, we offer mobile Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallwoing (FEES) services that bring our expertise directly to your facility. We will travel to locations such as skilled nursing facilities or rural hospitals to perform comprehensive instrumental swallow evaluations using gold standard techniques. Mobile FEES offers significant cost benefits, improved quality of care, and a reduction in hospitalization for patients with swallowing disorders. By bringing the evaluation directly to your rehab facility or rural hospital, mobile FEES eliminates the need for costly hospital-based studies, reducing expenses for both healthcare providers and patients. This portable approach allows for timely and accurate assessment, leading to quicker treatment plans that improve patient outcomes. Additionally, early detection of aspiration or swallowing issues through mobile FEES helps prevent complications like pneumonia, which in turn reduces the likelihood of costly hospital readmissions. This combination of convenience, affordability, and enhanced care makes mobile FEES a a valuable tool in swallowing disorders management. Contact us today to organize a meeting and set up a contract to help your patients!
Outpatient Swallow Studies
In addition to mobile services, we conduct outpatient swallow studies at our clinic. Our outpatient swallow studies use Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) which is a highly effective convenient option for assessing swallowing physiology. FEES offers a thorough evaluation without the need for radiation, making it a safe and practical choice for diagnosis in and treating swallowing disorders. Our state-of-the-art facilities are equipped to provide thorough and precise assessments.
