Throughout her career as a pediatrician, Dr. Thuet has helped parents anticipate, prepare for, and navigate the newborn stage. However, when her daughter was born in 2016, she was surprised to find that her training had ill-prepared her for what to expect on her own breastfeeding journey. Despite her medical background, she didn’t have the adequate knowledge or skills to navigate some of the hurdles of breastfeeding during the first few days and weeks home with her newborn.
After experiencing her own struggles and watching those of the parents and families she cared for, she decided to pursue additional training specifically in breastfeeding so that she could better support her patients. Dr. Thuet is a pediatrician and BOTH a lactation consultant and Utah’s first board-certified breastfeeding and lactation medicine specialist, blending all three skillsets together to help parents navigate every step of their breastfeeding journey.
After a phone consult where I was able to describe my situation without feeling rushed as one may in a hospital setting, she clearly laid out her services, specialties and expertise and how she could help me specifically. Coming to my house was a huge benefit and relief. Instantly I felt comfortable with her and supported by her.
She is literally amazing! She was very helpful and helped me with all of the breastfeeding issues I was having! Will definitely keep going to her!
I’m so glad to have found Dr. Christina! She is very knowledgeable about breastfeeding and everything that entails it! Highly recommend her for all breastfeeding needs!
I am so glad I made the decision to meet with Dr Thuet today to create a game plan for pumping upon my return to work. I was extremely overwhelmed and anxious about pumping beforehand, and she talked me through everything I could need to know. She left both me & my partner set up for success to EBF our son once I'm back to work. Thank you so much!
Dr. Thuet was so helpful in our breastfeeding journey. Her advice and tips helped us tremendously and we are so grateful for her guidance and prompt response.
She expedited everything to make sure I was taken care of during this critical breastfeeding moment. Super grateful for her quick response and expertise. I learned so much during that initial consultation, saw immediate results, and easily made it through the engorgement period with my newborn.
I really appreciated her coming to my home and evaluating me and my baby. I was hesitant to bother her by texting questions but she reached out to follow up and see how things were going so I felt comfortable texting my questions.
Dr. Thuet got me in the same day, did a thorough work up and gave me actionable changes that multiple visits to the hospital lactation specialists never could and then followed up closely to make sure we were succeeding. I didn’t believe it was possible - but within 5 days my nipples were healed and my baby and I were thriving breast feeding.
Absolutely love Dr. Thuet. Highly recommend her to any mother for breastfeeding guidance! She truly helped me through my breastfeeding journey two times around. Thank you so much, Dr. Thuet!
Doctor Thuet has been super attentive to me. She made a home visit and took the time to answer all my questions and explain everything. I saw an immediate difference with all the suggestions she gave me in my body and in my daughter. Very willing to help and follow up. Very grateful and 100% recommended.
While we just met Dr. Thuet for our initial consultation for some feeding challenges after discharge, we can already tell we are in very capable hands. As a healthcare professional, I greatly appreciate Dr. Thuet’s approach, which balances compassion with a pragmatic and evidence-based approach to helping our little family see a path to success with breastfeeding.
Dr. Thuet’s exceptional expertise in pediatric care and breastfeeding was a lifeline during the challenging moments of my breastfeeding journey. Her support and insightful advice proved invaluable, turning hurdles into manageable steps and instilling a sense of confidence in me.
I loved my experience with Dr. Thuet. She guided me through building up my supply, weaning off formula, and maintaining supply.
I’ve gone to other lactation consultants and received very “one-size-fits-all” recommendations that didn’t work for my specific situation. Dr. Thuet personalized my plan based on my history and thoughtful questions, and now I feel confident in the breastfeeding journey I have ahead of me.
Dr. Thuet was truly an incredible asset during my breastfeeding journey. She helped us increase supply through a short stay in the NICU, where we were advised to do mostly bottle feeds. She was non-judgmental when I made the decision at one month to strictly pump.
Dr. Thuet is amazing! I would highly recommend working with her if you have any problems with lactation. She takes the time to listen to your concerns and works with you to create a plan that is sustainable.
I met with Dr. Thuet for a prenatal appointment. I’m having my third kid and didn’t have a successful breastfeeding experience. Meeting with Dr. Thuet gave me hope that my experience this time around can be so much better.
I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Thuet, and I can't recommend her highly enough! She helped me out with my first kid and second kid. She made me feel comfortable and supported. Her extensive knowledge and expertise in breastfeeding and pumping helped me navigate the challenges I faced as a new and second time mother.
Dr. Christina Thuet is amazing! Her background and experience is so apparent when you work with her. She was so incredibly helpful and thorough. I was able to see and feel improvements in my breastfeeding immediately! I will be recommending her to all my fellow mom friends!
Dr. Thuet has been indispensable during the first few months with our daughter. She meets us right where we are and thoughtfully explains options and the reasoning behind them.
