About me

I am an orthodontist who specializes in treating cleft lip and palate and other craniofacial disorders that need:

  • Care for the teeth or jaw (orthodontia)
  • Surgery

I am the Director of Craniofacial Orthodontics at OHSU’s Cleft and Craniofacial Program. 

I am proud to say that I helped start Smile Oregon, a nonprofit that helps families whose children have cleft and craniofacial conditions.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
