Ontario Breastfeeding Clinic Infant Feeding Support
OHIP-subsidized and Private Pay options available
Please visit www.OntarioBreastfeedingClinic.ca for more information
Book Now with Ashley through the OBC
Lactation consultants are not directly covered by OHIP and most work privately or for an institution such as a Hospital or Public Health.
With a referral into the Ontario Breastfeeding Clinic you can request to see me for care, alongside a pediatrician, and these visits can be OHIP-subsidized*.
Appointments are 60 minutes and are virtual or at one of my 3 office locations (Monday/Thursday in Mississauga, Tuesdays in Milton, Wednesdays and Fridays in Oakville)
OBC visits are attended by a virtual pediatrician as well as me, except on Mondays where the pediatrician joins us in person
There are no limits to how many visits you can book, however, each visit will have a $77+hst co-pay and OHIP covers the balance
**PLEASE be sure to choose Ashley Pickett when booking your appointment at https://ontariobreastfeedingclinic.janeapp.com/ and choose the SUBSIDIZED option (this is the OHIP pathway) to book with me. If you would like to continue paying privately or would like to book home visits, please be sure to contact me directly for this option rather than via the OBC.
