In this hour of “First Bite,” the dynamic duo opens up about their collaboration for a combined treatment approach for pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders. They share the good, the bad, the ugly: lessons learned about best practices for a team approach, etiologies that benefit the most from a team approach, as well as their favorite “do-overs”…as in, “welp if we had known this, then we would have done this”…and let’s be honest, the do-overs tend to be the best life lessons! Let this cheery episode warm you up this chilly winter day!
