The vocal folds are to separate structures which are located in the larynx or voice box. Humans have two vocal folds which open and close during normal breathing, and during sound production, or phonation, the vocal folds come together and vibrate.

The vocal folds are intricately layered, which is the reason for unique sound production. The outer layer is squamous, non-keratinizng epithelium. Just deep to this is the superficial layer of the lamina propria. This is a gel like layer, which allows the vocal fold to vibrate and produce sound. The deeper layers of the vocal fold are muscles – the vocalis and thyroarytenoid muscles make up the deepest portion of the vocal fold.

Didn’t feel care for left the office feeling discouraged, dr didn’t seem interested in finding out why I’m having my symptoms. From his opinion I’m fine. When a doctor wants to really help they’ll try all test possible to find the problem, instead he said I need to see a pain specialist and I left.

I couldn’t ask for a better experience with a Doctor and staff. Dr. Verma put me at ease and walked me through the Vocal fold injection process. He made it an easy experience and he was always informative and willing to answer questions. I felt heard and never rushed.

I'm unable to eat and swallow. Dr. Verma asked me to go to somewhere else for the treatment. He did NOT even give me the reason why he can not treat me.

Dr. Verma and his staff were totally professional. I came in from Palm Springs and it truly was worth the ride. I have what’s called a ZINKER. He had to put a tube down my nose to examine me. I didn’t feel a thing.Forgot to mention I’m a big baby. All in all it was a very good experience. Thank you Dr. Verma
