Swallow Safely

Difficulty with swallowing is a typical symptom of Parkinson's. How do you know for sure that you have a swallowing problem and if you do, what do you do about it? Dr. Joel Herskowitz, M.D. and Dr. Roya Sayadi, Ph.D., authors of the just released book, Swallow Safely: How Swallowing Problems Threaten the Elderly and Others. A Caregiver's Guide to Recognition, Treatment, and Prevention answer these questions and explain the critical role of safe swallowing for persons with Parkinson's symptoms.
