5-Day Core Content of Breastfeeding and Lactation Medicine

Tuesday-Saturday, January 21st – 25th, 2025
Webinar

This is THE COURSE to begin your journey towards practicing Breastfeeding Medicine
The goal of this course is to provide breadth and depth of clinical knowledge for physicians & other providers (physician assistants, midwives, nurse practitioners) who desire comprehensive breastfeeding education. Each session will focus on evaluation and management strategies in a case-based format, so that participants leave with the knowledge and skills to manage a wide variety of breastfeeding problems that they will encounter in a typical primary care practice.

The webinar version of Core Content will be Tuesday-Saturday, January 21-25th, 2025. Upon signing up, you will also receive access to the 2024 Core Content sessions, so that you can get a head-start in your education.
