Testimonials
“The Blaine Block Institute literally saved my career as a elementary vocal music teacher.”
“The Blaine Block Institute literally saved my career as a elementary vocal music teacher. The vocal therapy they provided was practical, effective, and gave me a new voice. The staff is friendly, kind, and professional. They are a blessing to our region and musical community. All of the clinicians offer a level of empathy at an unparalleled level. I cannot offer a higher endorsement.”
“Compassionate, knowledgeable, amazing care.”
“I couldn’t ask for more compassionate, knowledgeable, amazing care than what the staff at BBIVAR provided me. The BBIVAR family ensures you are well taken care of. I am so very thankful for the evaluation, therapy, and insight of BBIVAR. I am especially thankful for Angela and her knowledge... she was able to help me find my voice, use it properly, and keep it. I can talk and sing again! Angela assured me that BBIVAR could get my voice back… she followed through. My local therapist had given up. Visiting BBIVAR was like visiting family and I did not feel like I was visiting a medical office. I am overjoyed that I can speak again and I have Angela at BBIVAR to thank!”
“BBIVAR is an incredibly helpful and professional center.”
“I had a very positive experience at BBIVAR! Before I started vocal therapy, I was completely lost. I couldn’t get through a normal day of speaking without feeling emotionally and physically fatigued because of my voice… losing my speaking and singing voice made me feel like I didn’t even know who I was anymore. The vocal therapy I recieved at BBIVAR made me feel like a new person. Erin Donahue always encouraged me to trust my voice, and helped me find exercises and a routine that would get me back where I used to be. I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for her expertise and guidance. She was always eager to answer any questions I had, and the exercise plan she created was just right for what I was specifically going through. She inspired me to take better care of my voice, and not to lose faith in myself and in what my voice can do. I don’t think I can ever thank her enough for how she helped me. BBIVAR is an incredibly helpful and professional center, and I would encourage everyone I know to go there if they need care.”
“The clinic’s approach was outstanding.”
“When I first came, I was experiencing a chronic cough. As an airline pilot, this cough was interfering with my ability to speak clearly during radio communications, thus inhibiting me from smoothly carrying out my job. My clinician’s suggested exercises and analysis helped me overcome this problem. She was very thorough and took the time to explain everything in detail. The clinic’s approach was outstanding. I had a very enjoyable experience.”
“I could hear and feel the improvement incrementally.”
“My dear wife passed away a little over a year ago. Several months prior to this was filled with much stress. My voice worked in the morning, but by noon it tightened and I virtually lost it. I could not sing or talk well. At my age, I did not think there was much that could be done to improve my voice. My therapy sessions were handled by two well trained and skilled therapists. I looked forward to each session. I could hear and feel the improvement incrementally. I recommend BBIVAR and the specific therapists most heartedly!”
“My therapist treated me with respect, patience, and understanding, and made me feel at ease.”
“I had problems with speaking and singing, including reduced range and control. The evaluation of my condition was done quickly and accurately. The recommended therapy was effective in improving my problems. BBIVAR’s office seems very efficient, my appointments were always on time, and the staff was efficient, professional, and cordial. My therapist treated me with respect, patience, and understanding, and made me feel at ease. I would not hesitate to recommend BBIVAR to someone with similar problems.”
