A great number of people misuse or strain their voice. I’ve referred many people to the doctors and speech therapists at the Clinical Center for Voice Care. They’ve all reported great experiences. It’s wonderful to have a resource especially dedicated to voice care. -- Nancy Elledge, Voice Professor, Texas Christian University

  • Functional Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) – an examination of the
    movement of the inside of the throat during swallowing
