Speech/Swallow Disorders
Manderly Cohen, M.S., CCC-SLP
Progressive Ear, Nose and Throat Associates offers one of the original premier outpatient locations for FEESST on Long Island. Patients receive this state of the art, non-radiographic alternative to modified barium swallow studies with immediate diagnosis and treatment recommendations. FEESST is the test of choice for patients with a history of difficulty swallowing, neurological disorders or reflex. FEESST allows for the direct visualization of laryngeal anatomy, assessment of airway protection and ability to handle various food consistencies safely. Laryngopharyngeal reflux can also be directly visualized during this examination.
