Reflux

Dr. Abraham Khan joins us to discuss reflux and the voice. Dr. Khan is the director of NYU Langone Health’s Center for Esophageal Health, and a foremost expert on the topic of gastroesophageal reflux. Reflux has become something much larger than itself in our collective consciousness, such that it can be difficult to know what is true and what is myth, and how to navigate all the information. In this episode, we discuss what reflux is, how we define it, how we test for it, how GERD relates to laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), diet and reflux, and how reflux might affect the voice.
