About the clinic
Cleft conditions need more than a single specialist — they need a coordinated team. Northern Nevada Cleft Clinic brings those specialists into one room, one visit, and one shared plan for each child.
Built on the experience of families who have lived this journey, our program is designed to be local, accessible, and continuous — so children across Northern Nevada and rural surrounding areas can receive the comprehensive care they deserve without leaving the region.
We are currently in the process of becoming approved by the American Cleft Palate Association (ACPA).
Our approach
Surgical, dental, speech, audiology, and psychosocial care coordinated in one clinic visit.
Each plan is shaped with the child and family at the center — your experience guides our care.
Comprehensive cleft care delivered in Reno, reaching under-resourced and rural Nevada communities.
From infancy through adolescence, your team stays with you across every stage of treatment.
Visit the clinic
