As a speech language pathologist working at a hospital, It’s refreshing to hear a MD says to “learn” from us because we certainly don’t see a lot of doctors do that 😭😭 you are the best

[@MagiSanVlog]

Now that I just watched the video... I have NEVER thought about the swallowing process. It just happens so naturally! I have learned so much from this video and all your other vlogs. It is very interesting to meet new doctors and learn about their work. I am mostly impressed how you make me conscious about my body and my health. Thank you for that!

[@hkr667]

As someone who's had a stroke, unfortunately all natural things can become huge mountains to climb every time :( You learn to cope, but it never becomes natural again.

I’m a pre-ot student and was definitely just thinking this! There’s so much to healthcare that goes beyond nursing or being a or doctor that not too many people know about or have misconceptions (esp getting mixed up with PTs).

I’m currently a first year SLP completing my CF, and I miss the hospital setting so much. During my internship prior to graduation, I worked in a rehab hospital with a great deal of patients with dysphagia. I completely agree with the shakes and “ice cream” desserts tasting great, but a lot of my patients were simply discouraged about not being able to eat regular foods and drink thin liquids at the moment/anymore. It was tough for them to come to terms with their new normal and the only way they could drink their morning coffee was with two packets of thickener in it. At that point, it just doesn’t feel the same in their mouth especially if they already have sensory deficits. Not to mention, puréed macaroni and cheese or turkey and gravy doesn’t look appetizing. I found that just acknowledging their struggles really helped their buy-in to trying the thickened liquids and our swallowing exercises and strategies.
