Caring for children and young adults

The Craniofacial Programme treats children and young adults with deformities of the skull, orbits and face.

Craniofacial Surgery is performed as a team by plastic & craniofacial surgeon Charles Davis conjointly with neurosurgeons Martin MacFarlane in Christchurch and Agadha Wickremesekera in Wellington.

Approximately 60 major craniofacial cases are performed each year including some cases from overseas.

Multidisciplinary Craniofacial clinics are held in Hawkes Bay, Wellington, Nelson, Christchurch and Dunedin. A referral from your family doctor or Paediatrician is needed to be seen in these clinics.

Members of the Craniofacial team are involved with teaching craniofacial surgery in developing countries and participate regularly in craniofacial research and education. Some of the cutting edge techniques used by the team have been the subject of documentaries on 20/20 and The Discovery Channel in USA and Australia.
