About Jesse A. Taylor, MD

Dr. Taylor is Chief of the Division of Plastic, Reconstructive and Oral Surgery at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), specializing in the treatment of children and adolescents with congenital and acquired differences of the face and skull. He currently acts as Co-Director of CHOP’s Cleft Lip and Palate Program, Co-Director of the Craniofacial program, and Director of the University of Pennsylvania/CHOP Craniofacial Fellowship Program. He is also the holder of the Peter Randall Chair in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at CHOP. A graduate of Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Dr. Taylor completed his plastic surgery residency and fellowship at The Johns Hopkins Hospital and followed his passion for craniofacial reconstruction as a craniofacial surgery fellow under the well-respected Dr. Fernando Molina in Mexico City, Mexico.

Dr. Taylor focuses his practice on enhancing the appearance and functionality of the face and skull in children and adults. He specializes in craniosynostosis surgery, jaw surgery, surgery for facial asymmetries, cleft lip and palate repair, rhinoplasty, otoplasty, cranial reconstruction, cranio-maxillo-facial distraction osteogenesis, and complex facial reconstruction. He is a competent and caring physician who uses innovative surgical techniques and treatment strategies to optimize outcomes for his patients.  He cares greatly about creating a strong bond with families, taking particular pride in developing long-lasting patient relationships.

Dr. Taylor is active in prestigious national and international plastic surgery organizations including the International Society of Craniofacial Surgeons, American Cleft Palate Association, the American Society of Craniofacial Surgery, the American Society of Maxillofacial Surgery, American Society of Plastic Surgery, and the American Association of Plastic Surgeons. He lectures both nationally and internationally to educate surgeons and patients as to the latest techniques in craniofacial and cleft surgery. 

Fueling these efforts, Dr. Taylor is actively engaged outcomes studies in cleft and craniofacial surgery, aiming to improve the standard of care in his field and the quality of life for his patients. His research is regularly presented at major national and international plastic surgery conferences and he continues to make a strong contribution to the literature in a variety of peer-reviewed journals.

Dr. Taylor contributes to the care of international cleft and craniofacial patients through visiting professor appointments throughout Central and South America, Europe, and Asia. He also serves on international surgical mission trips in developing countries, providing pro bono care for children who may otherwise go untreated. He sees patients at both The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.

  • This was a very scary consult since we just found out our daughter will need jaw surgery. I am so glad we chose Dr Taylor as he immediately put our minds at ease but most importantly treated our daughter with humility and respect. He put the surgical procedure into simple terminology went to great lengths to answer questions. We all feel much better about this procedure and I'm just glad to know compassionate surgeons like Dr Taylor still exist! Thank you CHOP and all the great work you do for the CLP community.

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The Patient Experience Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown above from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. We are committed to true transparency. However, to ensure the comments are fair and correctly attributed, we review each one before posting to the website. We exclude entire comments that disclose patient’s protected health information, are off-topic, or include other confidential or inappropriate content. Comments will appear on provider bios only if providers have a minimum number of comments. Comments are shared internally for education purposes to ensure that we are doing our very best for the patients and families for whom we are privileged to care. The comments are submitted by patients and families and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
