For several years I have experienced extreme laryngitis, effecting my entire life and work. Finally, I was referred to the Voice and Throat Service based at the Ulster Hospital though most of my appointments were local to me in Lisburn.
I found my treatment very professional, caring and enlightening. I know that my voice will never be "perfect" but I have been given super exercises and incredible support from the Speech & Language Therapist and wider team, that I now feel confident and capable of managing the condition enabling a far healthier work life balance. I would not have reached this point without their care and consideration.
I have used private care and the NHS to help understand why I was losing my voice so much, my career was in jeopardy due to 28 absences over three years. The best person I have met was my Speech & Language Therapist and the Voice and Throat Team. I could ask any question, no matter now daft it seemed to me, and the answer was there.
If you, or anyone you know, has the opportunity to use the Voice and Throat Service, please do. Absolutely invaluable.
