Maxillofacial and Craniofacial Surgery Fellowship

Program Overview

Welcome to the Pediatric Maxillofacial and Craniofacial Fellowship Program in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at ÌÇÐÄVlog Children’s Health, Jacksonville. This is a 12-month fellowship program.

Our department provides patient care for a wide spectrum of conditions affecting the maxillofacial region. Our fellows receive full training in all aspects of maxillofacial surgery. Our physicians are consultants for the hospital’s Level I trauma center, with the most critical trauma patients from Northeast Florida and South Georgia. Our faculty and fellows provide comprehensive treatment for all aspects of pediatric soft and hard tissues, and abnormalities of the maxillofacial and craniofacial region.

In addition to the outstanding surgical training, our residents enjoy the many amenities of Jacksonville coastal living.

Participation with other surgeons (plastics and ENT) involved with pediatric head and neck surgical care is expected.

A mission trip to Vietnam is also offered to the fellow, where approximately 50 cleft cases are treated.
