What We Offer at the San Antonio Office
In-Person IBCLC Consultation
90-minute visits with pre- and post-feeding weights at our San Antonio office (10609 I-10, Suite 203). Unhurried, evidence-based, and centered on your goals. Our office is co-located with Nest Chiropractic — a convenient pairing for moms seeking lactation and chiropractic care under one roof.
Home Lactation Visits
We come to you across North San Antonio, Alamo Heights, Stone Oak, and New Braunfels. Home visits have a travel fee and are subject to limited availability.
Tongue Tie Evaluation
Full assessment of tongue, lip, and buccal ties. Coordination with pediatric dentists or ENTs in the San Antonio area when release is needed.
Prenatal Lactation Consults
Meet with an IBCLC before baby arrives. Build a feeding plan tailored to your pregnancy, medical history, and goals.
Online Prenatal Breastfeeding Class
Prepare before baby arrives. Families who take the class get off to a smoother start.
Back-to-Work Pumping Plans
Custom pumping schedules, bottle introduction, and supply management for moms returning to work.
Virtual & Triage Visits
When in-person availability is tight, video visits let you get support fast.
Insurance and Payment Options
Most of our San Antonio and Boerne lactation visits are covered by insurance under the Affordable Care Act. Submit your intake and our billing team will verify your specific benefits before you book.
Commonly Billed Directly
Also Accepted Depending on Plan Details and Location
Acceptance depends on plan details and location. Final coverage is confirmed when our billing team verifies your specific benefits.
Not using insurance, using a health-share plan, or unsure whether your plan applies? You can still submit the intake form, and our team will help route you to the right next step.
Have Cigna insurance?
We bill Cigna through Wildflower, our billing partner, so your visits can be covered just like any in-network provider. If you’ve seen “Wildflower” on your Cigna benefits, you’re in the right place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does insurance cover a lactation consultant in San Antonio?
Most health plans cover lactation support under the Affordable Care Act. We bill United Healthcare (all UHC plans), Aetna, Cigna (via Wildflower), Curative, and Sana Benefits, and also accept BCBS Texas, Multiplan, Tricare, and TLN Covered Plans. We verify your specific benefits — often the same day if you submit before 3 PM on a weekday.
Do you offer home visits in San Antonio?
Yes. Our IBCLCs travel to homes across North San Antonio, Alamo Heights, Stone Oak, and New Braunfels. Home visits have a travel fee and are subject to limited availability — contact us for details.
Do you accept Cigna insurance?
Yes. We bill Cigna through Wildflower, our billing partner. If your Cigna benefits mention Wildflower as an in-network lactation provider, you’re in the right place.
How soon can I be seen?
Fast. We offer same-day benefits verification when you submit your intake before 3 PM on a weekday, and most families are scheduled within 3–5 business days. If you need urgent support — severe pain, latching crisis, or feeding worries in the first week postpartum — we offer virtual triage visits that can often be scheduled within 24–72 hours.
What’s the difference between an IBCLC and a CLC?
An IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) is the highest credential in lactation care — requiring health sciences education, 300–1,000 supervised clinical hours, and a board exam. All of our San Antonio lactation consultants are IBCLCs.
Do you do tongue tie evaluations in San Antonio?
Yes. We provide full tongue, lip, and buccal tie assessments. If release is indicated, we coordinate with trusted pediatric dentists and ENTs in the San Antonio area for the procedure, then support you with post-release feeding care.
Can I see a lactation consultant before my baby is born?
Yes. Prenatal lactation consults and our online prenatal breastfeeding class give you the knowledge and plan to start strong. Prenatal visits are often covered by insurance.
