Voice science is gradually developing in Turkey. During the past 20 years, voice clinics have been established in certain universities. After 1990, the colleagues interested in voice diseases promoted this field in Turkey and many meetings or workshops were organized. The routine use of videolaryngostroboscopy and development of voice laboratories allowed many medical centers to advance in the diagnosis and management of the voice diseases.
