DR. Woo Shik Choi's Story
I focused exclusively on cleft lip and palate research for 30 years.
During my early internship, my mentor, whom I deeply admired, had extensive experience in the field of cleft lip and palate.
Working alongside my mentor, I witnessed firsthand the process of treating cleft lip and palate patients. Seeing them recover and return to their daily lives in good health gave me a sense of medical purpose, fulfillment, and genuine happiness as a healthcare professional.
The deep emotions and gratitude I felt at that time guided my life, leading me to pursue a career as a plastic surgeon specializing exclusively in cleft lip and palate.
Cleft lip and palate are congenital defects that affect the lip and palate (roof of the mouth), potentially causing issues with speech, nutrition intake, and aesthetic appearance.
To address this complex defect, precise surgical techniques and customized treatment plans are essential.
I deeply understand the challenges faced by patients and aim to assist them in reclaiming a normal daily life with the most natural appearance possible.
Based on 30 years of expertise at Woo Shik Choi's Nose Clinic, we utilize the latest techniques and methods in cleft lip and palate surgery.
Our goal is to help patients achieve a new beginning in their lives, always striving to provide the best care possible.
