Raymond W. Tse, MD

"It’s funny how life and dreams can take you places. After training as a plastic surgeon, then a hand surgeon, and then a cleft surgeon, life has brought me to Seattle Children’s. Treating the most important people in the world (kids) with irregularities that were there from day one or sometime not too long afterwards is highly rewarding. Whether the focus is on a child with a cleft, an ear anomaly, a birth paralysis, or a congenital hand difference, the approach is the same – to partner with the family and provide the best possible care. I’ve had many mentors throughout my career and I continue to learn and grow everyday but now it’s mostly the kids and their families that I learn from. I continue to strive for the unattainable because I know that my work is making an impact now and will last a lifetime."
