My appointment with Dr. Geraghty was the worst medical experience of my life. She insulted my profession, lied in visit notes, told me I'd never successfully breastfeed after barely looking at my chart, and rushed our weighted feed in order to get the results she wanted. When I left crying from her advice to stop breastfeeding and give my son formula she said it was a good thing I was crying. Despite her advice, I ended up breastfeeding my first for over a year and am now having a much better breastfeeding journey with my se... read more

I was referred to breastfeeding medicine by my pediatrician as my child was IUGR (growth restricted in utero) and unable to latch. My first visit with Dr.Geraghty was so/so.

I had an excellent successful experience with Dr. Geraghty's lactation consulting. She did weighted feeds and gave actionable advice that we followed exactly (triple feed for a week, then exclusively breastfeed after she confirmed baby gained weight and latched better). She helped us gain confidence, recommended helpful gear (the MyBrestFriend pillow), and started us on the challenging and rewarding breastfeeding path. Six months in, breastfeeding is still going great!
