Responding to Susan's psot:
We had a problem with a pharmacy doing this same thing in our area and they
were even reimbursed by an insurance company for renting her a "hospital
grade pump" for her NICU 26 weeker. They were reported and since then, have
stopped renting or carrying Medela products completely.
It is a sad state of affairs when people have access to certified lactation
support and choose not to use them or even try to work through a
breastfeeding problem, but it is quite another to have "so called" lactation
specialists jeopardize the credibility of our profession and those companies
that support our efforts, in this way.
I'm hoping you can report this less than professional person to your local
Medela representative so she might be able to track her source for pump in
styles. In our area we are seeing rampant sharing of these pumps with no
thought as to quality control, but hey, there's always formula if the pump
doesn't work well enough, right?
Feeling very cynical today!
