I grew up as a singer and musician, then decided to pursue a career as a vocal cord surgeon. While at Yale, I continued to sing a perform throughout college and medical school. I completed a residency in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and finalized my training with a fellowship in Laryngology and Care of the Professional Voice at the Vanderbilt Voice Center in Nashville, also known as Music City. My interests include performing arts medicine, health equity, history of medicine, and diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Institute
As part of The University of Illinois Hospital and Health Sciences System, our mission includes community outreach, education on voice care, and the scientific exploration of all aspects of voice.
Voice
Unique to humans, the voice communicates, inspires, educates and entertains. It is our mission to maximize each voice according to a patient's needs - whether the individual be a professional voice user (teacher, clergy, trial attorney) or a vocal performer. All voices are welcome!
Care
We have assembled a team of highly trained professionals who create a personalized plan to restore and maintain each voice. Dr. Sims, a fellowship-trained laryngologist, makes an assessment and diagnosis according to the latest scientific research with state of the art equipment. He has assembled a team that can offer an array of appropriate options: medical, surgical, behavioral, and if desired holistic.
