Patient Reviews
Jan 24, 2023
Dr. Thekdi, and his exceptional staff, Margarita Rodriguez, and Voice Therapist, Maurice Goodwin have helped me after a complicated cervical spinal surgery that resulted in a paralyzed vocal cord. I waited a year after the spinal surgery to see if the vocal cord would come back to life, which it did not. Dr. Thekdi’s truly amazing vocal cord implant gave me back my voice! Margarita Rodriguez was the most helpful person in assisting through every process. Maurice Goodman’ voice therapy sessions are better than I ever expected. I am grateful to have found this incredible doctor and his staff. Sincerely and grateful, Rhonda Teegarden
