About John A Girotto

About the Provider

When I was in high school, I had surgery and went through a year of rehab after a significant gymnastics injury. The experience really opened my eyes to the world of medicine, which shaped my future career path. Since medical school, I have focused my career on caring for children with facial differences, such as cleft lip, cleft palate, and other abnormalities of the head and neck.

At our office, care is kid-centered and family-focused. As soon as children are able to talk and understand, we want them to have an active voice in their treatment. We partner with families to create individualized treatment plans that are both medically sound and aligned with their values and goals.

Kids have their whole lives ahead of them. Caring for them means we can have a profound impact on the future. Knowing that their future might be better due to the work of our team brings me a lot of satisfaction and joy.
