Insurance
Not in the basic insurance; often partly covered by supplementary insurance. Own fee not stated.
Lactatiekundige Praktijk Groningen is listed in this guide as an IBCLC lactation consultant in Smallingerland. The practice has no public street address in the source — which usually means a home-based practice, or care delivered at your home. We therefore show only 9213 VH De Wilgen, approximated from the map location. That falls under the municipality of Smallingerland, province of Friesland.
What to expect from this care An IBCLC lactation consultant specialises in breastfeeding and has passed the international IBCLC examination. That is different from a breastfeeding counsellor or a volunteer from a breastfeeding organisation — both can be valuable, but IBCLC is the only internationally examined qualification, with recertification every five years. A lactation consultant looks at the whole picture: your baby’s anatomy, your breasts, feeding position, and anything medical that may be playing a part.
Mothers usually come to this kind of care for things like engorgement, a blocked duct or mastitis, worry about not producing enough milk and a baby who will not latch properly. A consultation usually takes 60 to 90 minutes and often happens at your home. The consultant watches a full feed — how your baby latches, how you sit, what is happening in your breast — and frequently weighs the baby before and after. You leave with a plan you can start the same day, plus a written summary for your midwife or GP.

Frequently asked questions
What is Lactatiekundige Praktijk Groningen and what can I find here?
Lactatiekundige Praktijk Groningen is listed in this guide as an IBCLC lactation consultant in Smallingerland, province of Friesland. An IBCLC lactation consultant specialises in breastfeeding and has passed the international IBCLC examination. That is different from a breastfeeding counsellor or a volunteer from a breastfeeding organisation — both can be valuable, but IBCLC is the only internationally examined qualification, with recertification every five years. A lactation consultant looks at the whole picture: your baby’s anatomy, your breasts, feeding position, and anything medical that may be playing a part. What this specific practice offers has not been confirmed by the practice itself — ask about it at first contact.
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?
Yes, you need an appointment; the source explicitly states that visits are by appointment. You can book by phone on +31 6 10338188 and through the website. Mention that you have recently given birth — it helps them schedule enough time.
What are the opening hours?
The source lists no opening hours for this practice. Get in touch by phone on +31 6 10338188 and through the website to ask when you can be seen.
Not stated in the source — this is what we can say about it in general.
What does it cost, and is it covered by insurance?
Not by the basic insurance — lactation support is not in the basisverzekering. Many supplementary policies (aanvullende verzekering) do cover one or more consultations, usually as an amount per consultation or a maximum per year. How much varies considerably between insurers and packages, and it changes every January. Look under "lactatiekundige" or "borstvoeding" in your policy conditions before you book. A practical point: most lactation consultants ask you to pay them directly and give you an invoice to submit to your insurer yourself, so budget for paying up front. What this particular practice charges for a consultation, and whether it has a contract with your specific health insurer, is not in our source. Ask for the fee before you book.

Zeer tevreden over Lactatiekundige praktijk Groningen. Ik had behoefte aan begeleiding bij het geven van borstvoeding vooral in de avond en nacht. Willy Hummel kwam na mijn telefoontje diezelfde middag nog langs en heeft mij geholpen met enkele tips. Tot onze grote verrassing heeft onze kleine meid

Heel goed geholpen! Willy Hummel is zeer professioneel, geeft goede adviezen en neemt alle tijd. Na het consult tevens erg prettige nazorg. Beveel haar zeker aan bij anderen.
