SERVICES
Cleft Care
While each patient’s cleft and treatment are unique, the common thread is the care and attention received by the LCPC providers. We are all here to help families through this journey.
Plastic Surgery
Lancaster Cleft Palate Clinic and Penn State Hershey Medical Center have enjoyed a strong, long-standing relationship, that began in 1970–and unofficially, much earlier, when Dr. Rusty Long first created Milton Hershey’s own dentures!
Orthodontics
It is quite common for kids with a cleft to have missing teeth, malformed or malpositioned teeth, and bite problems such as underbites and crossbites.

Our professional will evaluate your child’s speech and language development to determine whether speech therapy or surgical intervention is warranted.
