Complete and compassionate craniofacial care is what we’re all about at the California Craniofacial Institute. At the end of the day, the fruit of our labors is the difference we make in the lives of our patients. Here are some of the bright spots.

Dear Dr. Schendel,
Thank you for operating on my daughter. We are very
thankful to you and your team. Our daughter is very happy and
says that she now looks pretty, like a princess, and that her hair will grow
back prettier than before. Thank you again for everything.

Dear Dr. Schendel,
Thank you so much for giving our daughter the greatest gift she could hope for. It's not just the new chin that looks so beautiful, it's also the confidence and self-esteem that you gave her. We are so happy with the result. You've outdone yourselves!!!

Dear Dr. Schendel,
We feel so fortunate that everything worked out for our daughter to have you
as her sugeon and can't thank you and your team enough for the attentive
and "beyond the call of duty" care she received. There aren't the right
words to express our appreciation for all you did for us. Your calm, caring,
expertise, and innovation helped us to get through! Merci beaucoup!

Dear Dr. Schendel,
You have changed my life and I am incredibly grateful. My bite, my breathing,
and especially my face are all different and wonderful. "Thank
you" isn't enough.
You've been so kind and caring. For all your training and expertise you are
an incredibly approachable physician. I realize how fortunate I am to have
had an expert operate on me. I'm so glad for all the Intranasal work you and your partners did in
addition to everything else. I can't remember ever breathing this well. I've
begun using my front teeth to tear food-a new experience for me! And last,
but maybe most important, my face is a new wonder that I get to know a little
better each week as the swelling goes down. And each week. it looks even better.
) haven't seen the finished product quite yet as
small amounts of swelling are still resolving. It's already beautiful. I'm
impatiently waiting for the last bits of puffiness to resolve. You do great work.
Thank you.
Robin C.
