Barry Chang, MD

I am honored to provide compassionate care to our pediatric patients so that they may have the opportunity to live their young lives to their fullest potential.

I believe in compassionate and trusting human-to-human connections with patients and anyone I encounter within the healthcare team. I want my young patients and their families to feel comfortable and confident with my care.

As a pediatric craniofacial surgeon, my care philosophy revolves around empowering my young patients to actively participate in their healthcare journey. I strive to create a trusting relationship by teaching children age-appropriate information about their conditions and treatment plans. My goal is to ensure they not only understand the "why" behind their care but also feel confident and engaged as active participants in the process. I believe open communication with parents and families is equally important, as it builds a strong support system and fosters shared decision-making throughout the care journey. Over time, I help my patients transition from relying on their parents for decision-making to becoming informed young adults capable of making independent healthcare choices. In addition to providing expert care in a wide range of pediatric craniofacial and reconstructive procedures, I offer prenatal counseling for cleft lip and palate to support families in understanding their child’s condition and preparing for the journey ahead. I am deeply committed to collaborating closely with both families and referring physicians to ensure the best outcomes for our patients. Together, we can provide children with the tools they need to thrive — both physically and emotionally.
