I only know the name of Dick Vitale thru my sister - he bought a house from the luxury home builder she works for in Sarasota and met him at some charity functions and told me about it..I have NO idea who he is..

She did say he's a really great guy..
I can't imagine that there's a guarantee with the type of surgery done tho..my goodness there's so many things to consider that will change the voice..especially for a singer..some have had surgeries and are fine but it's a risk I imagine they feel is necessary..
