What Happens During a Telehealth Consult?

Evaluation of the breastfeeding relationship. Address your concerns and questions. Education related to breastfeeding/lactation challenges.
A visual exam of lactating parent and baby/babies

A written summary of my evaluation and care plan is provided with written recommendations.
Collaboration with health care providers involved in your care.
How To Prepare For Your Telehealth Consult
Please have a person available to help position the camera/computer during the consult
Please have sufficient lighting in the room and a separate portable light/lamp that can be directly aimed at a subject
Have your camera available to take pictures/videos for later review
Telehealth consults, due to their nature, may require more follow up messaging (this is included)
Please attempt to feed your baby approximately two to two and a half hours prior to the consult so that your baby will be interested in feeding but not frantic.
