Medical Evaluation
Complete vocal care requires a full assessment of your health and an evaluation of other medical conditions that may affect your voice.
Your Medical History – Including Medications and Other Medical Problems
History of Your Voice Symptoms
Evaluation of the Sound of Your Voice During Vocal Task Testing and Singing Samples
A Thorough Examination Including Videostroboscopy to Get a Complete Picture of Your Vocal Health
Voice therapy
Voice Therapy encompasses rehabilitation and voice optimization for vocal performance.
Therapy benefits all professional voice users and our Vocal Therapist, Tressa Cox, helps our patients improve and sustain their vocal health. She works with patients to develop therapy goals, address current vocal issues, and prevent future ones.
Surgery
No matter your diagnosis, treatment is always conservative and tailored to your individual needs.
Dr. Gupta never pressures anyone into surgery, and surgery is the last resort for injuries that do not respond to more conservative treatment.
However, if you do require an operation, you will benefit from Dr. Gupta’s vast experience helping professional voice artists return to performing within weeks of their surgical procedure.
Singer’s tonsillectomy
A tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure designed to remove the tonsils, two small glands located at the back of the throat.
Tonsillectomy is generally considered a safe surgical procedure, with the primary risk being postoperative bleeding from the tonsil bed. However, for individuals who rely on their voice, such as singers and voice actors, there are additional concerns.
Laryngeal Massage
Laryngeal manipulation was created as a combination of mobilization, manual adjustment, and massage of the laryngeal and paralaryngeal area.
Patients should first have an examination by a laryngologist to determine candidacy and appropriateness of therapy. Laryngeal manipulation is performed in a medical setting to ensure patient safety and a high quality of care.
Your voice is as unique as your fingerprint. Dr. Gupta, and every member of our caring team, is here to assess your voice and obtain a complete picture of your vocal health. The first step is a complete evaluation of your overall health and your vocal history. We use singing and other vocal tasks to understand your specific problem. We also use state-of-the-art equipment to look at your vocal cords. The data we collect helps us create a proposed treatment plan and solution. Rest assured, Dr. Gupta’s years of experience result in a painless examination and accurate interpretation of the results.
YOUR CONSULTATION & EVALUATION
ON LOCATION TREATMENT
Many of our patients work irregular hours in the studio or have tight work schedules that make it difficult to see a doctor. Some prefer the private setting of their home or workplace. We understand these challenges and value your privacy and time, but not at the expense of the best care. If you are interested in high-quality, offsite evaluation and treatment, contact us to schedule an off-site care visit with Dr. Gupta that helps you access high-quality care that ensures the best vocal outcome.
