Common Medical Diagnoses and Treatments in Voice Patients

Thursday 6th April 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

Esteemed ENT surgeon, Professor Robert Sataloff has written and spoken widely about voice issues and has had a major impact on his field of practice.

As a singer himself, he has a specialist interest in developing treatments for voice disorders in singers and performers.

This online event will review some of the common diagnoses that he sees and explore effective and innovative care, including surgical, and multidisciplinary team treatment.

With over 1,000 publications including 72 books under his belt, and the accolade of having written the first modern comprehensive article on care of singers, this course will also offer singers and teachers with an interest in getting published an insight into the rigorous and credible research methods that the medical community undertakes.

We will learn how we might adapt our own practice and elevate our academic prowess.

The Cannabis Question: What Voice Practitioners Need to Know!

Dr Dann Mitton

As cannabis use has become more common, socially accepted, and legalized, voice professionals are increasingly fielding questions about its effects. This two-hour session with Dr Dann Mitton offers a clear, research-informed overview of what we currently know about cannabis and the singing voice. The session is built around real-world questions voice teachers and singers are asking: Does smoking cannabis dry out the vocal folds? Is vaping safer than smoking? What should I know if my student uses cannabis for anxiety or pain? Could some voice types be more at risk than others?
