What do mothers and their doctors have to say about MilkWorks?

“As an OB-GYN nurse, I knew that breastfeeding is not always as ‘natural’ as it is made to look in pictures when one first gets started.  I was determined to breastfeed.  Your patience and persistence made my difficult nursing experience so much better.  Thank you for being warm and accepting.  I really appreciate…your hard work and faithfulness to the breastfeeding community in our area.  I wish there was a MilkWorks in every city so that nursing mothers everywhere could have the support that I had.  Thank you again!” 
Nicki Elwood, mother of Levi

“Many offices do not have the capability or desire to give the time consuming assistance you do.  I can be totally supportive of my patients who are breastfeeding but I am not in the right place at the right time very often to really assess what the problem is.  Also I am not able to keep up with the most current recommendations for problem resolution.  Everyone of my patients who have contacted you have been very happy with your services and I know that you have kept women breastfeeding that would have quit without you.”  Thank you so much for being there. Carol Greenlee, Certified Nurse Midwife

“I don’t know how to thank you enough for all of the help and support I received from all of you.  I wish every mother had access to such a wonderful resource to help make breastfeeding a successful and rewarding experience.  I know that attending (mom’s) group helped ease my anxiety and made me much more comfortable in my new role as a mother.  Colin thanks you, too!  He has a brighter future ahead of him thanks to you!”
Sarah Jones, mother of Colin

“Thank you for your continued care for our moms/babies with breastfeeding difficulties.  Your help has been invaluable in supporting and teaching our patients so they can achieve their goals for breastfeeding their babies.  Well done!”  Jerry Black, MD, Holy Family Medical Specialities

“I want to express my appreciation to all of you at MilkWorks and the services that you provide.  I spent almost every day for the first two weeks of Ariya’s life at your center, got to know a lot of you there, and most importantly, I am successfully breastfeeding now after some very stressful times.  Thought I was determined to give my daughter the best nutrition, if it weren’t for MilkWorks I would gave given up on breastfeeding:  I just didn’t think it was going to be possible.  I thank you so much for all of your support, assistance and faith in me – Ariya thanks you even more!  I’ve even given my friends who live out of town your number because they aren’t as fortunate to have such a helpful place.  I thank you so much – you do wonderful work!!!” 
Susan Pearce

“Dr. Kathy Leeper and her staff have filled an important niche in the city of Lincoln when it comes to support of breastfeeding and lactation consultant services... without exception my patients have said that it has been a beneficial experience that has markedly helped their ability to breastfeed effectively.” 
Donald L. Gibbens, MD, Obstetrician

“I want to let all of you know how much I appreciated all the help and advice you gave me with Tommy.  I am proud to say I successfully breastfed him for one year.  If it wasn’t for you and the fantastic services you provide, I probably would have given up.  I admire each one of you for what you do – and what you did for me and Tommy.”  Amy and Tommy

“I was ready to give up on breastfeeding when I contacted your office for help…my daughter cried day and night and by the end of each day I was in tears myself and ready to give up.  Since my appointment with you, I followed your advice and now have a happy baby girl who is totally breastfed.  I am grateful beyond words for your help.  Breastfeeding my daughter has since been one of the greatest joys of my life.”  Jeanine Tomasek, new mother
