Our team is passionate about helping patients restore vocal strength, resolve swallowing issues, and get back to doing what they love—without discomfort or limitation.

Vocal Cord & Voice Examination

The first step in treating any voice disorder is proper evaluation. If you're experiencing hoarseness, voice loss, or a change in pitch or tone, our specialists can perform a detailed examination using advanced tools such as:

Laryngoscopy – A small scope that allows the provider to view your vocal cords directly.
Videostrobolaryngoscopy – A state-of-the-art technique that uses a small camera to project slow-motion images of your vocal cords for more detailed assessment

These tools allow us to diagnose even subtle issues, so we can recommend treatment with accuracy and confidence.

Treatment for Complex Voice Disorders

Our Lafayette team is experienced in managing a wide range of complex voice conditions, including:

Laryngitis
Vocal cord paresis or paralysis
Spasmodic dysphonia
Muscle tension dysphonia
Chronic hoarseness
Vocal nodules or polyps

Treatment options may include medication, voice therapy with a speech-language pathologist, or in some cases, minimally invasive surgery. No matter your condition, we'll work closely with you to restore vocal quality and function.

Swallowing Disorders

Difficulty swallowing—known as dysphagia—can result from neurological issues, reflux, or structural problems in the throat. At LENTS, we evaluate swallowing concerns using comprehensive assessments and imaging. We then tailor treatment, which may involve therapy, dietary changes, or surgical intervention depending on the cause.
