All my kids have tongue ties, and I have an expensive cash laser surgery coming up for the 3 year old, I'm not making the same mistake again. (The mistake was - the ENT at 9 months said it was minor and refused to snip it)
My baby is 2 weeks old and has an obvious lip tie. Who do I go to that's good. Specific name of someone? I have fidelis

Why are you snipping it? Why is it necessary?

Same. Used him for one of my kids and one spot of blood.
Recently used a different ENT for another baby and there was heavy bleeding for a few minutes.

please try cranial first. I got my babies snipped in the hospital and it grew back. Did one cranial session which got it loose so I didn't have to get it snipped. Started latching perfectly fine

Latch and nursing is fine. How would cranial loosen it up?

Maybe have a lactation consultant look at it first. I did that with my baby. I didn't end up snipping. Lactation consultants look at tongue or lip ties differently than Dr's.

What airway issues? I wouldn’t put my baby through a painful procedure because of a “maybe” in the future.

Dr Lauren Kotlow in Albany. Takes Fidelis and is an expert at doing this for many many years. Lots of Frum people have it done by him.
They are ridiculously stuck in the covid procedures (ex must wait in car, no waiting room, mask, for older kids no parent allowed in etc )
Fidelis can even cover a taxi ride.

Many doctors won't snip lip tie, only tongue. I agree that a lactation consultant can tell you if it's something that needs tending.
It's such a tiny procedure, it's not worth taking the risk that it will effect them years down the line.

I've used him multiple times. He never allowed the parents go down with the kid for the actual procedure. But he's amazing. Did it with him for all of our kids.

How do you know he is amazing if your not there by the procedure? That’s worrisome to me as a parent.

Cuz he does the job right. The kid is inside for exactly 5 min. And I've done it with a bit older kids (7 and 5) too. They weren't traumatized at all.
