Breastfeeding Medicine

Care from providers trained in Breastfeeding & Lactation Medicine to manage complex challenges, including recurrent mastitis, chronic nipple pain, oversupply/low supply.

Preterm & Medically Complex Infant Feeding Support

Caring for a preterm baby or a baby with medical needs can bring unique feeding challenges. Our IBCLC-certified consultants provide specialized support for families navigating NICU transitions, slow feeding development, and conditions such as low birth weight, jaundice, or congenital concerns.

What to Expect During a Consultation

In-Person Lactation Consultation

Our in-home or in-office visits provide hands-on guidance tailored to you and your baby’s needs. During an in-person consultation, your IBCLC may:

  • Observe a feeding to evaluate latch and positioning

  • Check for tongue-tie or oral anatomy issues

  • Assess weight gain, milk transfer, and feeding cues

  • Address nipple pain, engorgement, or supply concerns

  • Provide pumping guidance and flange fitting if needed

  • Develop a personalized feeding plan for your family

In-person visits allow for immediate adjustments and reassurance, helping families feel confident and supported right away.

Virtual Lactation Consultation

Our secure online video visits make professional lactation care accessible no matter where you are. A virtual consultation may include:

  • Guided observation of a feeding via video

  • Assessment of latch, positioning, and milk supply

  • Discussion of feeding challenges, pumping questions, or bottle-feeding support

  • Education on paced feeding, return-to-work plans, or storage guidelines

  • Customized care plan emailed after the visit

Virtual visits are ideal for families seeking flexible scheduling or living outside one of our physical locations — and many insurance plans cover them.
