Breastfeeding Support and Well Infant Visits

Update June 2026. Dr. Wickens is no longer available to provide breastfeeding medicine consultations. She now works at West Saanich Medical Clinic. Patients who do not have a primary care givier may book a walk-in clinc visit for infant and child health concerns, including breastfeeding support. There is no cost to patients with BC MSP and no restriction on the age of the baby. The clinic also has a registered nurse with extensive experience in mother infant care who can offer guidance to new parents. When space allows we offer well baby visits or check ups for infants and toddlers who don't have a family physician.

How, When, Where?

To book a visit, please use the Walk-in-Clinic booking form on the West Saanich Medical Clinic Website https://westsaanichmedical.com/walk-in-clinic. If you have a family doctor or nurse practionor please contact them for care first.

Visit Tips

Please bring 2 clean disposable diapers and a light blanket to cover the baby.
Take a few moments to write down your concerns and questions before the visit.
Please have the names and doses of any medications or creams you are using available as well as baby's birth and most recent weights.
Make sure to have your baby with you. It is ideal if they are a bit hungry so feeding can be observed.
If you are using a bottle, nipple shield or other feeding aid please have that available too.
