About Isha Cleft and Craniofacial Surgical Centre in Isha Hospital, Sarabhai Main Road, Subhanpura, Vadodara

The word craniofacial is derived from the word cranio, referring to the skull or cranium, and facial, referring to the face. Anomaly is a medical term meaning "irregularity" or "different from normal." Craniofacial anomalies (CFA) are a group of deformities involving the growth of the head and facial bones. These anomalies are congenital (present at birth) and vary in type and severity.

These conditions could be due to birth defects, accident or injury, or inappropriate growth and development. Optimal treatment of these conditions requires comprehensive, inter-disciplinary treatment planning and management to achieve maximum rehabilitation. Patients also need to be on long-term follow-up as the treatment spans the entire childhood and teenage years.

At Isha Cleft and Craniofacial Surgical Centre - Vadodara, we offer hope to the children born with cleft lip, cleft palate and other congenital abnormalities of the face. As we feel there is a huge lacunae for a well trained Cleft and Craniofacial Surgeon in and around the city.

The team is led by Dr. Varun Ramachandra-Maxillofacial Plastic Surgeon with special interest in cleft and craniofacial surgeries.

We cater to the patient's surgery, stay at the hospital, medications and their food. We also conduct patient education to generate awareness camps. The unaware parents (humble village folk) consider this condition as a curse and untreatable.
