Rosemary Ragusa, IBCLC

Lactation Consultant

Hello, my name is Rosemary, I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. I have been working as part of the Natural Latch Lactation team with home visits and in-clinic appointments at Sellwood Medical and Alma Midwifery in Portland, OR since 2017. Now in my private practice, my goal as a lactation consultant is to help new parents enjoy the experience of feeding their baby (babies). I believe it is my job to understand a family’s feeding goals and to help them meet those goals with as much joy and connection as possible. I enjoy supporting parents and babies through the minor "bumps in the road" of early feeding experiences, and in more complex challenges. I am on your side and here to support you. I offer at-home, in-office or online support, from our first prenatal visit all the way through to appointments to discuss the ins and out of weaning. As part of my service, I will help you receive insurance coverage through your health insurance provider. Most plans through MODA, United Health, Aetna and Multiplan can be billed directly. Currently working on in-network status with First Health. For other insurance coverage, you will pay out of pocket and receive the proper paperwork for reimursement through your insurance company.
