Breastfeeding Specialist
Feeding a new baby is one of the most common concerns for parents of newborns. How will the baby be fed? How often? Should you breastfeed or use formula? As with every patient and situation, each family is different and must make the choice that fits them best. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfeeding as your baby's sole source of nutrition for about six months. It can be continued for as long as both mother and baby desire it. But while breastfeeding is natural, it’s not always easy. That’s why we can help you with breastfeeding support services.

ADHD Evaluations and Treatments
Most children experience times when their behavior seems “out of control.” They may struggle to pay attention, turn, or sit still. For some children, however, these behaviors occur so frequently or are so severe that they disrupt their everyday lives. These children may be diagnosed with a condition known as ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder). According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), “ADHD is a condition of the brain that makes it difficult for children to control their behavior. It is one of the most common chronic conditions of childhood”. We offer testing for ADHD to determine a proper diagnosis for your child and then partner with families to help their children be successful.
