Certified Nursing Center -The Lactation Center
Testimonial
We are very proud to have achieved certified nursing center status and wish to continue as a partner with Medela as we truly believe that Medela breast pumps and related products are the best quality on the market. Medela is a pleasure to do business with as we receive excellent customer service both from our rep and from Medela Customer Service.
As our hospital strives to provide a full range of services to breastfeeding mothers our Lactation Center with a full Medela product inventory has been considered a “success” by our administration. We greatly appreciate the Certified Nursing Center recognition on the Medela web pages and believe this will help our business grow and prosper.
