Cleft and Craniofacial Team
We provide the professional expertise and dedication necessary to accomplish that plan with a minimum number of surgical procedures. Our team members possess specialty training far exceeding the minimum requirements for board certification. The team keeps up-to-date with advances in the field through regular continuing medical education, but does not race to adopt every new treatment trend until safety and efficacy can be assured. We regularly review our outcomes and constantly strive to improve the care we provide.
Our team consists of audiology, dentistry, genetics, neurosurgery, nutrition, otolaryngology (ENT), oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS), orthodontics, pediatrics, plastic surgery, speech pathology, sleep medicine, and social work.
