OPTION FOR CONTINUOUS MONITORING
Many complex cases require daily support, especially during the initial weeks, and usually involve more than one family member (eg mother and baby, other children and parents with differing symptoms). If you would like the reassurance knowing that your questions will be answered without having to book a time, I recommend taking up this option for the length of time that you feel you need it. You can opt in, cancel or resume at anytime. The first week is provided with the initial consultation fee. Billing is weekly at $60 per week and will include the following:
- Daily monitoring and feedback via online interactive food and symptom diary
- Response to emails and text messages within 24 hours (usually within a few hours)
- Close monitoring of baby's stools (for breastfeeding bubs) via text
- Weekly summary and recommendations
