Testimonials
I hadn’t spoken to my throat in all my 65-years
Our patients are central to guiding the research that we do. While we help them recover function, they help us design new approaches, strategies and technologies for use with subsequent patients.
So when our patients speak, we listen. We hope you will as well.
The videos below are a testament to their strength and their faith in recovery and our commitment to the potential for rehabilitation.
