Maple Kidz Clinic is proud to be a source of breastfeeding expertise, both with latching and feeding assistance as well as medical management of breastfeeding dyads. We provide non-judgmental, evidence based advice to meet your feeding goals in a way that is supportive and acceptable to you and your family.

Dyads can be seen with valid health cards and with a referral for the breastfeeding infant directed to:

DR. POOJA PRABHU

MD, FAAP, IBCLC

Please fax referrals to 905-303-3035

We believe that the breastfeeding dyad is a unit, so we evaluate and advise on problems that arise and affect either member of the breastfeeding dyad – parent or infant.
