The Northwest Voice Conference is excited to host our annual Advanced SLP Topics in Voice, Swallowing, and Upper Airway conference. This one-day course is designed to educate speech-language pathologists who are evaluating and treating complex populations in otolaryngology practices and head and neck cancer settings. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a student eager to learn more, we aim to facilitate a supportive learning environment that provides clinicians with updates in evidence-based practice and strategies to optimize clinical care within their unique medical setting.
Our event will be held at the Health Sciences Education Building Rm 125, behind the University of Washington Medical Center - Montlake campus.
