DrVoice has contributed to the medical literature on voice — most notably the laser reduction glottoplasty technique developed by Prof. Dr. İsmail Koçak.

Prof. Koçak's laser reduction glottoplasty (LRG) was first described in a peer-reviewed study and has since been adopted and studied by independent groups worldwide.
