The Pediatric Airway, Voice, and Swallowing Center provides seamless care for pediatric voice disorders across multiple medical subspecialties, including pediatric otolaryngology, gastroenterology, pulmonology, and speech pathology, as well as a full range of diagnostic testing services.
Using a multidisciplinary approach, the center enhances the diagnosis, management, and communication of voice disorders, feeding and swallowing issues, and airway problems with primary care providers.
A Collaborative, Stress-Free Environment
We know that the time of your child's diagnosis and treatment can be very stressful. Our open and welcoming team strives to reduce stress by working together and consulting many different disciplines in a cohesive, coordinated manner.
Parents, along with primary care providers, become our partners in their child's care and have an active voice in all treatment plans.
Newborns and children coming to the Pediatric Airway, Voice, and Swallowing Center will be seen by multiple providers on the same day as necessary. Endoscopic and/or imaging procedures can be combined into the same appointment, too.
