Testimonials
Breastfeeding in the time of COVID-19
Although times are hard, we want you to know that we are here for you. We at Metropolitan Breastfeeding want you and your family to feel safe and healthy when you come to see us. When you come to our office or we go to your home for lactation evaluation, support, and treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic we will do everything in our power to keep you safe!
- All staff will have their temperature taken at the beginning of the day
- All staff will wear masks, gloves, and gowns when working with patients
- All staff will disinfect any equipment used before each new use
- All staff will practice social distancing to the best of our ability
- We will take our patients’ temperature before their appointments and ask them to fill out a brief screening questionnaire
- We also provide telehealth visits for families that do not feel comfortable coming in and as an initial visit before determining whether an in-person visit is needed
Lastly, in the office, we will only see one patient at a time and allow sufficient time between visits for disinfection practices
Our staff has one goal: to provide sound advice, education, and emotional support for all breastfeeding families. We will continue to work hard to help all families set and achieve their own personal feeding goals while staying safe and reducing the spread of COVID-19!
