I breast feed my children and have been through several doctors. She has been by far the most understanding in this respect as doctors are not educated about breast feeding at school. She is also really good at answering your email or phone enquiries.
She was very informative. She listened to me. She listened to my children. She appropriately let us know follow-ups we need to take.
