Our lactation consultations are provided by International Board Certified Lactation Consultants.   The IBCLC credential provides assurance that the consultant has met the highest standards of clinical training and experience.   She will also collaborate with other members of the health care team to provide comprehensive lactation support.

An initial consultation begins with a complete history, a anatomical breast assessment related to lactation, and weight gain assessment of the baby.  During the consult, the baby’s ability to transfer an adequate amount of milk will be evaluated and the mother is guided in how to help her baby achieve optimal milk transfer without experiencing pain.  All of mother’s breastfeeding concerns are addressed and an individualized plan of care is developed specifically for her and her baby’s needs.

Consultations are by appointment only.   The initial consult is a flat fee of $95, and usually takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours.  However, if more time is needed to address all of mother needs, there is no additional charge.  Follow-up appointments are a flat fee of $35 and usually take 1 hour.

A 24-hour notice is required to reschedule or cancel appointment.
