How much did you pay to see an LC?

Assuming it wasn't free... and was your LC certified?

My insurance covered it. Check with them.

Mine is certified and is employed by my pedi.

Average cost is 100-150 for an hr. (I am a lactation consultant)

edit: this is for Home care- after leaving the hospital. phone and email follow up is free

Certified for $150. I went to the pedi office. The consultation was as long as the feeding. I was able to email and call her any time after the appointment for no cost.

Paid nothing, she's certified and works at the hospital I delivered at. The hospital offers breastfeeding classes that she teaches. I had to pay for that class but it was worth it and was only $25.

My pedis office has one that is certified and I can see her for a 30 min appt for I think $25; I saw her when DD was born. This time, I found a private consultant in the area who is also certified and paid $100 to see her in her office; it would have been $150 if she came to my house. I can call her for follow ups as needed and reasonable phone calls are free; if I want to have a follow up visit it is $40 for an hour. She gave me a bill for my insurance but I haven't checked with them yet to see if they will cover it.
