Bringing high-tech swallow imaging and assessment to North Louisiana and South Arkansas.
North Louisiana Swallow Solutions provides Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) services to the greater North Louisiana and South Arkansas regions. FEES is a gold-standard, evidence-based, and cost effective swallowing assessment which can be performed practically anywhere.
Dysphagia, the inability to swallow safely and effectively, can only be accurately diagnosed with appropriate imaging. A clinical or bedside swallow evaluation CANNOT adequately diagnose swallowing disorders. With FEES, you can be assured of a comprehensive assessment of swallow function and interdisciplinary communication which improves treatment outcomes.

Why Choose FEES?
Timely assessments
Because of the health risks associated with dysphagia, including pneumonia, timely imaging of the swallow is of utmost importance. A delay in swallow imaging can lead to poor outcomes. This is why we strive to provide imaging to our patients within 3 business days.
cost effective
North Louisiana Swallow Solutions charges an affordable, flat rate per study. Since every single dysphagia patient needs imaging to achieve highest level of care, cost is key!
gold standard
A mobile FEES procedure provides objective, measurable data to assist with treatment planning. With FEES, we are also able to view excess secretions and signs of laryngopharyngeal reflux, two conditions that are very prevalent.
evidence based
Because it directly images the pharynx in real time, FEES has been shown to be higher in specificity and severity in identifying penetration, aspiration, residue, and spillage in individuals with dysphagia than an (MBSS).
education
Not only do we provide high quality imaging and assessment of the swallow, we also work with the treating speech-language pathologist, nurses, physician, family, and caregivers to promote evidence-based treatments and improve therapeutic outcomes.
“We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
