OUR CLINIC PROVIDES SERVICES FOR EVLAUATION OF SWALLOWING DISORDERS. Impaired swallowing, or dysphagia, may occur because of a wide variety of structural or functional conditions, including stroke, cancer, neurologic disease and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
A videofluorographic swallowing study and Endoscopy is particularly useful for identifying the pathophysiology of a swallowing disorder and for empirically testing therapeutic and compensatory techniques.
They are usually amenable to rehabilitative measures, such as dietary modification and training in specific swallowing techniques.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) consists of partial or complete closure of the upper airway during sleep and lead to breathing cessation. People experience excessive daytime sleepiness, restlessness, snoring, recurrent awakening, and morning headache.
Untreated patients are at risk for hypertension, atrial fibrillation and other arrhythmias, heart failure, and injury or death due to motor vehicle crashes and other accidents resulting from hypersomnolence.
We offer exclusive diagnostic evaluation for snoring and OSA testing such as POLYSOMNOGRAPHY AND SLEEP STUDY AND DISE.
Treatment includes conservative trials with CPAP or BiPAP as well as surgical treatment options like Modified UPPP and Barbed techniques which have an excellent result.
