Welcome to the Swallow Your Pride Podcast. I'm your host Teresa Richard. I'm a board

certified specialist in swallowing and swallowing disorders and I know firsthand

how much confusing and conflicting information there is out there about how we assess and treat

swallowing disorders. This podcast is all about bringing everyone together, getting on the

same page, being open to new ideas, and using evidence-based treatment strategies for our patients with dysphasia.

Just a quick disclaimer that all statements and opinions expressed in this episode do not reflect on the
