Description

Head and neck cancer can cause devastating swallowing problems, requiring a unique approach. This episode of Down the Hatch (The Swallowing Podcast) includes guest Heather Starmer, M.A., CCC-SLP who has extensive clinical and research expertise in dysphagia due to head and neck cancer. In addition to basics that make this population distinct, we dive into a few soap boxes including whether residue is "a thing"! Despite limited time, you will find this to be a very informative podcast about a very special type of dysphagia.
