Lone Star Pediatrics would like to serve a community medical home for children in Ellis county and as part of this initiative, we conducted a National Breastfeeding Awareness Event in August 2023. The event was a good opportunity for new moms to better understand the process and technique as they reviewed with the breast feeding experts and IBCLC in our community. We look forward to more participation in the future. Please refer to our facebook page for more details.
