Great bedside manner. A lot of knowledge about breast feeding. Helped me with gettin my baby to latch. Got my breast pump here too and was fully covered by insurance in like in other on line vendors. Practical advice and was able to demonstrate things in person.

Lisy has changed my life with breastfeeding my son. The first Session really opened my eyes to how we need to progress. It helped my son latch and me relax to let the oxytocin flow. I will continue to go to sessions to be monitored and make improvements.
A very positive experience today. The approach was very calming and focused on the mother baby bond of breastfeeding. I received some very practical tips and advice and left with a baby that could latch! I highly recommend a session with Lisy. My baby is a week today and I wish I would have gone sooner!!

Lisy was absolutely amazing!! My husband and I visited her with our first son when we were experiencing latching issues three years ago, and we returned this week when we had a latch scare with our newborn baby. Lisy really listened to our concerns, reassured us, provided a plethora of information, and had wonderful bedside manner. We would highly recommend visiting Lisy if you have any concerns regarding breastfeeding or pumping breastmilk.
So amazing experience, Lisy just the best one! She is so calm and professional, my baby loved her from the first sign! We have the difficulties with the breastfeeding and won’t handle it without her!
Lisy is very knowledgeable and passionate. She has always made herself available and has troubleshooted many breastfeeding and bottle feeding issues for us. I have experience with many lactation consultants and she is simply the best. Top of her field and a true expert. I will recommend her to anyone who I know needs the help. If you want to make sure your child's feeds are going well you need to contact Lisy ASAP!
Amazing nurse practitioner. She gave me so much hope and confidence to help care for my premie baby. So knowledgeable!!! I highly recommend!
