I’m loading up the family and moving to Beverly; Hills that is. Ok, so maybe we’re not really moving, but we’re loading up for the trip to get a second opinion on my vocal damage from well known doctor to many stars, Dr. Shawn Nassari.
My fellow SLS instructors agree it’s time to get a real pro to weigh in on the vocal pain I’ve been having. And I couldn’t ask for a bigger pro than the doctor Nassari who has helped a multitude of million dollar voices. And after all of the surgery I’ve had this year, I really appreciate a surgeon who would rather not cut.
I’m really hoping it’s something simple, not a cyst or a node. As a voice teacher and working voice talent, I can’t imagine how I’m going to get by if I get the news that I can’t phonate (make noise) for weeks while I heal. They say it could be the result of the severe acid reflux that required my first surgery to prevent more damage to my vocal cords. Either way, I’m relieved to be in very capable hands, knowing I’ll finally have an answer in just a few weeks.
Leave a comment with your vocal questions. I’ll ask the doctor for you!
