Dr. Jennifer Moore, M.D., FAAP, IBCLC

 

 

A consultation takes about one hour and includes a careful history and examination of both mother and baby. If appropriate we observe a breastfeeding session and actively work with the breastfeeding pair. After making a diagnosis we offer practical, common sense advice to help solve the issue. We recognize that each mother and baby is unique and our advice may differ from patient to patient. Return appointments are usually necessary until the concern has resolved.

 

One of us is available 24/7 for phone support as well as in person consultations in the hospital

and office 7 days a week. We also have evening appointments several nights a week.

 

We offer FREE prenatal breastfeeding classes once a month in our Norwalk Office. Call 229-2071 for information and reservations. For an appointment or 24/7 help line call 203-229-2088.

 

We accept most insurance for both Mother and Baby.

 

We see patients from any medical practice and report back to your Ob and/or Pediatrician. Don't wait, get the help you need today!
