Whether you're looking for an undergraduate program, advanced fellowships, or anywhere in between, you'll gain confidence in treating a variety of conditions through hands-on learning. We offer skilled, team-based care for a wide range of outpatient procedures and major operations, with specialties in cleft lip and palate, craniofacial surgery and hand surgery.
Our research complements our approach to patient care and is focused on improving surgical outcomes, including prosthetic limb development, mastectomy reconstruction, and bone healing.
