What People Are Saying
Emma is a genius! My son had a severe tongue tie and we went to several professionals that could not figure out what was going on . She is the only one that physically did an assessment of his mouth and tongue and realized something was going on . I was so lost and hopeless and felt crazy . Emma led us to the right professionals to have his tongue tie fixed in addition to therapy, he is now bottle and breastfeeding without difficulties I can not thank her enough.

Nobody told me how difficult feeding my baby would be or coming up with a feeding plan. I felt so guilty I was not producing enough milk for my baby. Emma made me feel so much better, she helped me establish a plan specific to the needs of my family that did not make me feel shame and helped me and my husband with the confidence to feed our infant.

Every black woman knows about the maternal and infant health crisis. It was so nice to meet a provider that looks like us who is knowledgeable and up on the most current research, as a medical professional myself, I felt comfortable having Emma assess and treat my infant. Emma advised us to wait to clip his tongue tie, after 3 weeks of therapy, he actually did not end up needing the procedure, and we were prepared to pay $1500. I can not thank her enough.
