Craniofacial Center 

In 1976, Taipei Chang Gung Memorial Hospital was established. In 1981, the Chang Gung Cleft Lip and Palate Medical Team officially set up the nation's first—and Southeast Asia's first—Craniofacial Center. In 1998, it expanded to Linkou Chang Gung, and in 2008, it moved to Taoyuan Chang Gung. Since 1976, the medical team has served over 30,000 cleft lip and palate patients and more than 1,000 patients with congenital craniofacial deformities in Taiwan. The team is dedicated to promoting patient-centered care, interdisciplinary healthcare, and multinational clinical and basic research, making it a world-renowned center for cleft lip, palate, and craniofacial care.
