“This was an absolutely excellent course for the novice and veteran clinician alike! Even as a SLP with over 20 years of direct patient care experience with dysphagia evaluation and treatment in an acute care hospital ICU setting I learned valuable information with immediate application to my work in each section. All of the material presented was current, relevant and scientifically supported. Many thanks to Eric and MedSLP Ed for one of the best CEU courses I have taken in years!" - AnneMarie Schoenwetter

"This course was so refreshing and engaging! This type of course is something I was looking for and didn't even know it. I am so thankful for short courses and being able to learn about a variety of topics. But, I truly feel "fed" as an SLP when I get to dive into something a little more deeply. Thank you for offering these courses and helping us stay informed "

“Eric was a fabulous speaker with a wealth of knowledge. I appreciated how he intertwined the interdisciplinary roles to combine the larger picture of person centered care. I found it to be extremely empowering and it makes me realize how truly bad ass it is to be an SLP! We certainly do not always get the credit we feel we deserve but Eric certainly made it a point to earn it and share with the rest of us. Thank you so very much for taking the time to present such fabulous information."
