Hello Jackie,

I really appreciate you posting about your surgery to treat the paralyzed vocal cord. I also had this surgery several years ago and agree that it is far better than the injections. In my case, the surgery, which was in 2014, is still keeping my voice relatively strong.

How did you find a good surgeon to treat this problem?

My cardiologist sent me to him; he was considered the best in this field (in BC). It was a ways for me to travel but definitely wanted to go him. I did research him as well.

Thank you Jackie and the other responder on the Thyroplasty surgery. I am schedule back to Mayo in early summer for either another procedure or surgery. I was dreading another procedure and your comments have given me the confidence I needed to have the surgery. I am looking forward to it and may even move my appointment date up. Ensign 60
