Infant Feeding Clinic
The Infant Feeding Clinic at Primary Children’s Hospital offers care for patients less than 12 months of age with feeding difficulties. Feeding difficulties can raise concern for a baby’s safety, nutrition, and growth. There are a wide range of feeding difficulties that can include:
- Coughing, choking, or gagging with swallowing
- Difficulty with breast or bottle feeding
- Slow feeding
- Volume limiting
Our Model
