Why Choose Abhilash Ghadei
Abhilash combines advanced instrumental skills with clinical expertise most speech therapists in Gurugram do not hold. FEES and VFSS are specialist diagnostic tools that allow direct visualisation of the swallowing mechanism rather than relying on bedside observation alone. His Tata Memorial Hospital fellowship in head and neck oncology swallowing is an advanced, nationally recognised training that very few swallowing therapists in India hold.
That combination of instrumental assessment capability, advanced fellowship training, and IDDSI-based texture management puts him in a strong position to manage complex dysphagia cases where routine therapy may not be enough.

Abhilash works with adults who have swallowing and speech difficulty related to:
- Stroke-related dysphagia
- Parkinson’s disease and neurological swallowing disorders
- Head and neck cancer treatment recovery
- Post-surgical swallowing difficulties
- Dementia-related swallowing problems
- Aspiration risk and aspiration pneumonia history
