“These two dimensions combine to create at least twenty types of high visibles (see figure 4-1).
Type 1 is the person who made news for one day in his town, such as a swimmer who rescued a boy from drowning. Type 8 is the person whose name makes news around the world… ; for example, … Dr. David Staffenberg, who separated… conjoined twins.”
L Greenwald. “Where Thou Leadest Me”, in Heroes With A Thousand Faces, Cleveland Clinic Press, Cleveland, 2007, pp 40-60.
“That it took Nicole and her parents months and months of effort to find a physician to help them didn’t surprise Dr. Staffenberg, who is chief of pediatric plastic surgery and
the director of Craniofacial Surgery at the Children’s Hospital at Montefiore in New York City. Too often, he says, “Patients are not sure of the road map – who can help them or where they should go for what kind of surgery.”
“When Nicole met with Dr. Staffenberg, she found him to be kind and honest. “He said, ‘You know Nicole, this is going to be a very tough case. It depends on how far you can stick with this and keep your spirits up and work with me’. He was willing to stick with me until I felt secure about how I look.” “Dr. Staffenberg outlined the issues he found along the left side of Nicole’s face: Her eye was sunken, her eyebrow sagging; the zygomatic arch was not right, and until the bone was fixed, it didn’t matter what was done around the eye. …”
L Greenwald. “Where Thou Leadest Me”, in Heroes With A Thousand Faces, Cleveland Clinic
Press, Cleveland, 2007, pp 40-60. “The first step that Dr. Staffenberg proposed was to remove the metal plates and screws that held Nicole’s cheekbone in its incorrect position and then re-create the fractures, using a small electric saw. The cheekbone could then be repositioned and secured. …”

“Nicole recalls Dr. Staffenberg describing skull bone as being ideally suited for repairing delicate areas of the body, such as the face. Dr. Staffenberg explains that the skull is composed of three layers. …”
“After Dr. Staffenberg performed the split calvarial bone graft, he shaped the outer layer of bone and then placed it on the cheek, securing it with screw.”
“Next, Dr. Staffenberg could attend to her eye. … Being able to move the eye forward after that kind of injury, among surgeons, is considered to be a very difficult thing,” says Dr. Staffenberg.
“’He (Dr. Staffenberg) was very honest from the get-go,’ says Nicole.”
Jorge Posada and Laura Posada with Monica Haim. “Halos and Heros”, in The Beauty of Love: A Memoir of Miracles, Hope, and Healing, Atria Books, New York, 2010, pp 205. “The esteemed Dr. David Staffenberg would change the way we understood and dealt with craniosynostosis, stepping in as Jorge Luis’s official doctor in 2006.” “...(we) were thrilled to be able to consult with Dr. Staffenberg, a true pioneer in the field of craniofacial reconstruction...” “Dr. Staffenberg meticulously took the time to explain everything; he let us ask every question, and he even anticipated our questions, calmly explaining to us every possibility... Needless to say, we were in awe of his level of passion and uncontestable confidence in his work.” “...we were thrilled at the fact that Dr. Staffenberg seemed to be looking at every sliver of every detail, leaving nothing unaccounted for and really assessing the potential improvement of our son from every possible angle known to him.” “We chose to trust Dr. Staffenberg unconditionally and allow him to carry on what sounded like a thoughtful and deliberate surgical strategy.” “Still, everything that Dr. Staffenberg was now saying to us made sense, and we quickly realized that the doctor’s critical assessment of our son’s treatment thus far and his plan for future treatment could significantly improve his appearance, his health, and his life.” “Hearing Dr. Staffenberg lay it out for us this way made us quickly realize that if anyone held the key to a truly happy ending, it was very likely going to be he.” “Dr. Staffenberg and his team operated on Jorge Luis in December 2006, when our son was six years old. The procedure was beyond successful, without complications, and Jorge Luis was discharged after three days.” BOOK EXCERPTS (continued)

“Not only did Dr. Staffenberg take the helm as the captain of our battle against the disease, but his insights also inspired our outreach within the foundation, a platform that can significantly better the lives of children afflicted...”
“If the foundation acted as our new vehicle for awareness building and research, Dr.
Staffenberg would now be our hero, visionary, and pioneer. His experience, knowledge, and savvy would inform our cause and campaign.”
