Do you really come to my home in East Tucson?

Yes. We provide in-home breastfeeding medicine visits across East Tucson and the surrounding area, with the same medical care we offer in clinic.

Is a home visit covered by insurance?

Often, yes. We’re in-network with most major commercial plans, AHCCCS, and TRICARE. Because we often see families quickly, sometimes the same day or the next morning, and we offer Saturday visits, we can’t always confirm benefits before your visit, and we never let that delay care. These are medical visits, so your plan may apply a copay, coinsurance, or deductible. We’ll help you understand your coverage, and final benefit details are ultimately between you and your plan.

What if I’d rather come to the clinic?

You’re always welcome at our Central Tucson clinic at 3112 N Country Club Rd. Choose whichever is easier for you.

What a East Tucson home visit covers

We bring all the equipment with us and meet you in the comfort of your home to check on both mom and baby. It is the same visit we would do in clinic, apart from in-office procedures and lab draws, which we handle at our Central Tucson office.

A feeding observation in your space, with a weighted feed when it helps
Care for both of you, from latch and supply to mastitis and pain
A wellbeing check for mom, including blood pressure in the early postpartum weeks
Thorough tongue-tie evaluation, with a release only when truly indicated
A written plan before we leave, and follow-through after
Most insurance accepted, and care that never waits on it

One thing we watch closely: your blood pressure. Postpartum high blood pressure can be life-threatening, and most maternal deaths linked to it happen after delivery, not during it. Hypertensive disorders are tied to roughly 7% of US maternal deaths, and nearly three-quarters of those deaths happen in the postpartum period, often after hospital discharge and just as OB visits taper off. Because we are in your home during those early weeks, we check it, and we are proud to have caught dangerous postpartum hypertension in several families this past year, in time to get them care.

After you book, we send a confirmation and a secure self check-in link to complete from home, where you finish your forms, share your medical history, upload your insurance card, and review our home-safety information. See exactly how to prepare for a home visit.
