Expert Aerodigestive & Esophageal Care
The Aerodigestive and Esophageal Center at Cincinnati Children’s is internationally known for our team approach to caring for children with airway and esophageal disorders. We have the multidisciplinary expertise to treat even the most complex esophageal, airway, pulmonary, upper digestive tract, sleep and feeding disorders. The center is equipped to treat a wide variety of conditions, both surgically and non-surgically.
How We’re Different
At Cincinnati Children’s, specialists from different disciplines – including otolaryngology, pulmonology, pediatric surgery, gastroenterology, nutrition services and speech pathology services – collaborate in a single location to prepare a comprehensive care plan. All of the specialists, social workers and nurse practitioners attend a weekly meeting to review each child’s case and develop and discuss the plan.
When treating complex aerodigestive and esophageal conditions, coordination and true expertise count. Your child’s initial, comprehensive evaluation involves multiple specialists and is completed over a three to five day period, depending on your child’s specific needs.
