“Teenage boy mouth sleeper.”
Dr. Haller is excellent with spending time and listening to her patients. She thoroughly explained how my son's tongue tie was negatively impacting his poor sleeping patterns and fatigue. He had been a mouth breather and snorer for years.
He was able to have a frenectomy done even while wearing braces. It has been a week since the procedure and he has stopped snoring, breathing through his nose and wakes up refreshed now.
The level of care provided by Dr. Haller and her staff is top-notch.

“Toe-curling nursing pain, saved our nursing relationship”
My baby's tongue tie was misdiagnosed by an IBCLC and pediatrician. I took her to Dr. Haller who found it right away and treated it right then and there at 6 days old. She explained how different symptoms my daughter was having were related to this, showed me what to look out for post revision, and referred me to a list of tie-savvy IBCLCs. She does a one week follow up and will follow up as many times as needed at no further charge. Nursing improved immediately after the revision.

“Slow weight gain”
My 5 month old boy started to slow his weight gain and I went to a lactant consultant that told me about tongue tie and recommended dr..Haller. I decided to do the procedure to improve and to keep breastfeeding him and it worked wonderfully. I could not be happier.

“Adult with chronic headaches”
I've spent the last 20 years with terrible bruxism, daily headaches/migraines and neck/shoulder muscle pain. I've tried acupuncture, chiropractic care, massage, medicine and everything else you can think of. Addressing my tongue tie has proven to be such an amazing decision as my bruxism has seriously decreased and I am no longer waking up every day with a sever headache. I immediately felt my tight neck muscles release during the procedure and the pain relieving benefits keep on coming!

“Severe struggles with breastfeeding”
Dr. Haller was very attentive to all of our issues upon first meet, explanations regarding the multiple ties were in depth and easy to understand. Dr. Haller also was very accessible for questions immediately after the procedure and for the following week. After the initial week of post-op stretches and exercises I saw a great improvement in breast feeding. There was an increase in swallowing and alertness while breastfeeding and a better bond between my baby girl and I.

“8 wk old w/ lip & tongue tie - if you're on the fence, see Dr Haller”
A pediatrician diagnosed our son w/ tongue tie, recommended the frenectomy but stated post exercises were not necessary. Another doctor did not recommend it. After 8 weeks of breastfeeding, experiencing increasing nipple pain and chaffing, we were referred to Dr. Haller by our lactation specialist. Dr. H educated us & performed the frenectomy. Breastfeeding has been more enjoyable, baby had some discomfort for 1 day and he's feeding great now. The post exercises are necessary but easy to do.

“Helped my newborn tremendously”
I brought my newborn to Dr. Haller because I suspected he had a tongue tie. He would fall asleep exhausted after 5 minutes of nursing, and would wake 20 minutes later starving. He would also cry during any waking hours. It took up a lot of my time and energy. Dr. Haller responded very quickly by email and squeezed us in for an appointment and the procedure. He is nursing for much longer periods now, and is a happy, smiley boy.

“Painful nursing and daughter had excess gas”
Decided to correct lip and tongue tie due to painful breastfeeding and excess gas for my daughter. Since we had the procedure done, my daughter is less gassy, happier, breastfeeding is so much easier and she sleeps better too! I highly recommend having this done if you are on the fence about it. Dr. Haller and staff are amazing!

“Older Child With lip and tongue tie had delayed speech, reflux and sleep issues.”
My 2 yr old had lip and tongue tie that was missed diagnosed by pediatrician at 3 months old. After the consultation, Dr. Haller immediately preformed the procedure. It was more difficult with him being older but it was worth it! 4 days after, he was sleeping through the night! Before he was waking at least 2x/night. His appetite has been better and we have not seen any problems with reflux since. He is enunciating words and saying sentences now. He is over all a happier boy!
