In my private practice initial consults are usually about 1.5 - 2 hours. 
  Some as short as 1 hour and some as long as 3 hours.

It depends on how confident the parents are and how much basic 
breastfeeding and infant behaviour I need to cover as well as the 
problem they are having.

My follow up appointments tend to be one hour.
