Voice
is essential to
most of us in our personal and professional lives. Yet, it can
be very difficult to obtain good information regarding voice
disorders. Often, hoarseness
or other voice problems are simply overlooked, or perhaps dismissed
as ‘laryngitis’, even if they have gone on for weeks
or months. Anyone with a voice problem knows how limiting it can
be, however. Sometimes, it is no exaggeration to call it disabling. Voice Medicine is intended to offer the visitor reliable and current medical information about disorders that affect the voice. This information represents a combination of scientific evidence and consensus among experts, for voice medicine (laryngology) is a rapidly evolving field, and much investigative work remains to be done. Voice Medicine is designed to complement rather than replace consultation with a qualified professional. Since voice is principally a quality-of-life issue, and many aspects of the voice are subjective, a well-informed patient is the most important element in accurate evaluation and effective treatment. Voice Medicine is created by Lucian Sulica, MD, and reflects his interest and expertise in voice disorders. Dr. Sulica practices in New York City, and is the author of multiple publications in the field. |
