How it started
In August 2026, I was in a road accident. The accident broke the left side of my face: the cheekbone (zygoma), the upper jaw (maxilla), the lower jaw (mandible) and the eye socket (orbit). I needed two operations. The first repaired my cheekbone and lower jaw, and the second repaired my eye socket and upper jaw.
In hospital, I tried to understand the words that I kept hearing. The doctors explained things in medical terms, and I was often in too much pain to follow them. I searched online, but I could not find one page that explained the terms and the whole process before, during and after surgery.
So I decided to build the website I had been looking for. I wanted a friend, or anyone in a similar situation, to be able to understand each step in simple words.
Pictures that show the bones
Medical words are easier to follow when you can see the bone that they describe. On the homepage, a face turns into a skull as you scroll, and then the skull lights up five areas, one by one. Each guide highlights the bone that it covers. Four guides also have a slider that you can drag to compare a broken bone with the same bone after it is repaired with titanium plates or mesh.
A list of surgeons you can check
Patients and families also need to know where to go. Find a surgeon lists 208 hospitals in 28 states and union territories of India, with 806 surgeon names. A surgeon who works at two hospitals appears under both.
Each listing links to its source, which is the hospital's own website or an official government or university page. Before a listing went in, scripts checked that the source mentions oral and maxillofacial surgery and shows each surgeon's name. The list does not rank hospitals or surgeons.
No tracking, no accounts
The site sets no cookies, and it has no analytics, no ads and no accounts. The search and the "Near me" button work on your device, so your location and your search words are never sent anywhere. The privacy page has the details.
