Lactation Consultations in Scottsdale, Phoenix, and the West Valley
Our Lactation Services
Our Board Certified Lactation Consultants provide a range of lactation services, including prenatal, postpartum, and follow-up consultations.
We offer appointments in our Scottsdale office, in client homes in Scottsdale, Phoenix, the West Valley, and via telehealth nationwide.
We Are In‑Network With:
Many or all lactation visits may be covered at no cost to you; benefits vary by plan.
How It Works:
- Click Book an Appointment and choose your visit type.
- After booking, you’ll receive intake paperwork to provide your insurance details.
- We submit claims after your visit. Coverage is determined by your insurer. Feel free to check coverage with your insurance plan prior to booking.
A Few Friendly Notes:
- Every insurance plan is unique. While most families find their visits are covered, we can’t guarantee payment ahead of time. If your plan applies visits to a deductible or doesn’t cover lactation, you will be responsible for the balance.
- Some plans (like UnitedHealthcare or Cigna) ask you to take a quick extra step to verify coverage. Don’t worry — we’ll send you easy instructions if this applies to you.
- Our goal is to make the process as smooth as possible so you can focus on feeding your baby, not the paperwork!
