Specialized Plastic Surgery to Correct Deformities in Children
Associated Plastic Surgeons provides children in the Long Island, Nassau & Suffolk County, NY area with leading pediatric reconstructive surgical procedures to correct facial deformities. Whether congenital (cleft palate or lip) or traumatic, children’s deformities are emotional and difficult issues for both parent and child. Due to their obvious appearance, scars and birth defects are a constant reminder of the incident that caused them. Dr. Elliot B. Duboys understands these challenges and has dedicated much of his career in treating children.
Correcting Birth Defects & Other Pediatric Deformities
For over 30 years Dr. Duboys has considered reconstructive pediatric plastic surgery a personal passion, which was the inspiration for his founding the charitable organization “Save our Smile“.
Through “Save our Smile” Dr. Duboys, MD has performed hundreds of pro bono surgeries on children affected by such diseases as:
- Cleft Lip
- Cleft Palate
- Congenital Hand Abnormalities
He has also worked with many other birth defects by working in third world countries such as Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, and the Philippines.
Dr. Duboys’ interest in, and successful work in the field of pediatric reconstructive surgery has led to appointments as the founding Director of the Cleft & Craniofacial Team at the University Medical Center of Stony Brook where he led the team for nearly 25 years. In addition, Dr. Duboys was honored to co-chair the South American Cleft and Craniofacial Interdisciplinary conference in Bogata, Colombia.
