At this time, our practice is in-network with Aetna and select plans of United Healthcare.

For all other plans, you must pay out of pocket, but we will submit the claim and supporting documentation to your insurance company on your behalf so that hopefully you can get some direct reimbursement!

Please reach out to our practice administrator, Jenna Meyer, if you have questions about your insurance coverage.

Due to the unpredictable nature of birth, we do not book postpartum visits in advance. However, we would be happy to pre-register you while you are pregnant so that the process is faster and easier once baby arrives. Click here to start the pre-registration process.

Our providers tend to book out a few days to a few weeks in advance. We encourage you to reach out right away, as with cancellations, we can sometimes get new patients in on very short notice.

In general, the more flexibility you have about which provider you see and at which location you are seen (office vs. home), the faster and easier it is to schedule an appointment!

While not all lactation providers at Ora Feeding have the IBCLC certification yet, we only work with providers who are already operating at the highest level of skill when it comes to lactation and infant feeding.

All providers work very closely with co-founders and IBCLCs Grace and Yukari, who will oversee your case. The providers participate in ongoing training and mentoring with the co-founders, engage in continuing education in the field of lactation.

No matter who you work with at Ora Feeding, you will be in skilled hands!

For patients who live in and around NYC, we only do telehealth for follow-up appointments. For initial appointments, in order to get to the root causes of feeding challenges, the providers need to have as much information as possible. Much of this information can only be gathered with a hands-on approach, so we require the first meeting in-person. We take serious health precautions to minimize the risk for our patients (e.g. wearing masks, washing hands, using nitrile gloves, etc.).

After your initial, in-person meeting, we are happy to schedule follow-ups via telehealth!
