I am James Thomas and with my staff we have built a practice dedicated exclusively to laryngology/voice disorders over 20 years. My current priorities for teaching and speaking on laryngology lead me to almost monthly travel around the world (pre-COVID and maybe again...). Applications are being accepted for the next fellowship opening is July 2022.

Side benefits: The fellowship is located in central Portland, which is a delightful, liberal west coast city with incredible lifestyle living in an urban area. Wilderness abounds, beginning as close as a 10 minute ride from the office. We are an active gastronomic, creative beverage, coffee loving, pedestrian, transit, & cycling friendly community. 

Fellowship salary is $71,000, includes malpractice insurance.

There remains options for a shorter observational fellowship in the period between December 2020 and June 2022.

About voicedoctor.net

This site is my attempt to inform you about voice disorders from a physician's perspective. Vocal cords behave according to the laws of physics and there is not much that is mystical about them - although they are most important for transmitting verbal information and emotion from one person to another.  Feel free to review my diagnostic method for voice disorders. There is also a pdf file available for an out of print publication from 2012,  "Why is there a frog in my throat? A guide to hoarseness" which may be downloaded.
