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.
