"I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am for the excellent care my daughter Ella and I received at your clinic back in July.
Ella had been diagnosed with the 'least serious form' of tongue tie previously yet could not latch on at all. This was deeply distressing for me and we went through 3 weeks of exclusively pumping and a lot of tears. To say I was devastated was an understatement. Breastfeeding was extremely important to me and to not be able to do it would have had a huge impact on my mental health, particularly with a history of postnatal depression.
It was only when my osteopath mentioned in passing about a 'guy in Tipperary' that a bit of hope was restored. I knew as soon as I researched Justin and looked at the website for The Tongue Tie Clinic that we would make the journey from Dublin to Tipperary.
Although on holiday, Justin read my emails and responded immediately. I cannot thank him enough for this...I was in tears constantly and needed some reassurance.
As soon as we walked into the clinic I knew we were in good hands. What a lovely, clean and relaxing environment for any nervous parent to arrive at. From the minute we walked in, to the moment we left we received the best care. All of the lactation consultants, the physiotherapist and Justin himself were so friendly and helpful.
I know that not everybody agrees with doing the revision on tongue ties and in Ella's case, the lip tie. But without it we would not be breastfeeding today. I am happy to say 2 weeks after the procedure Ella latched on and we are feeding away. And I am forever grateful. Thank you for all of your research into an area that not a lot of people seem to be knowledgeable about.
