Dr Alison Walsh

helping you achieve your breastfeeding goals
Just like any other physical skill breastfeeding (like dancing or riding a bike) takes practice. Many mums and bubs can feed without any help, some will need a little help and a few will need more help. Dr Alison can help you in whatever situation you are in.
Dr Alison Walsh is taking 3 months of leave from 8th September to 22 November 2026.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
-
Learn about breastfeeding prior to having your baby to help you get off to a good start. It is particularly helpful if there has been problems in previous lactations, previous surgery or medical problems in mum or anticipated in baby.
-
Help early on after birth can set you up for success. Sometimes small problems become bigger if not solved early on in your breastfeeding journey.
-
Whenever there are issues along your breastfeeding journey there is help when you need it from the early days, introducing solids, returning to work or weaning.
