The events In Japan (earthquake & tsunami) remind us how transient our happiness, security, and even health may actually be. Special efforts will be necessary to help those effected. However, Dr. Graham and the staff at Aesthetic Center regularly assist children and families in our region, impacted by cleft lip and palate congenital deformities.
Dr. Graham is one of the few plastic surgeons in our community that participate in the Facial Anomalies and Cleft Evaluation Team (FACET). This clinic offers a national-standard multi-disciplinary team approach. It includes pediatricians, geneticists, speech therapists, audiologists, social workers, orthodontists, and oral surgeons. It provides translators for non-English speakers. FACET cares for hundreds of children from Greenwood, Oconee, Pickens, Laurens, and Greenville Counties. Many families have health insurance, but Medicaid is available for those that qualify.
For indigent patients, we provide our plastic surgical services free of charge.

Holiday Food Drive - Support Harvest Hope Food Bank
Throughout this month, Dr. Graham & him staff will be showing our support for our local Harvest Hope Food Bank.
Harvest Hope is the largest charitable hunger relief organization in the US. It has three offices in South Carolina (Greenville, Columbia & Florence). They receive donations from individuals, grocery stores, wholesalers and distributors and distribute to 400 direct service agencies (family shelters, food pantries, soup kitchens and after school programs). They operate an emergency food pantry serving 69,000 people each year. There is also a mobile food pantry serving eight rural SC counties without emergency food programs.
The Greenville Branch phone number is 864-281-3995. Their website is www.harvesthope.org.
We have a collection barrel in our lobby. We are asking patients coming to our office to contribute non-perishable food items, personal and baby care items, or pet food when they visit us for consultation or follow-up visits throughout the month of December.
We are trying to help Harvest Hope in their mission to help others in South Carolina.
