"I cannot thank Dr. Persaud and his team enough for taking such great care of my baby! ! We suspected our baby had a tongue tie and was able to get in with Dr. Persaud the next day after calling his office ! It was determined she had a tongue, lip and right buccal tie! Dr Persaud made sure to properly explain everything and recommended that we go ahead and have the ties corrected since feeding was an issue! We felt comfortable moving forward with the procedure and so glad that we did! Dr Persaud’s office has in house occupational therapists and a lactation specialist which was very nice. After the procedure Dr. Persaud gave us his cell number to call him directly if we needed anything and even called us the next day to check on us! I thought that was very kind of him! Amy was the occupational therapist that we met with and she was amazing! She gave me so much hope and I looked forward to meeting with her for our weekly post op appointments! Amy was so determined to help our girl learn how to use her tongue post release! Working with kids is not easy but Amy was sooo patient and caring! I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Persaud and his team. My daughter is now able to nurse and overall a happier baby! Worth the long drive and every single penny ! Thank you for everything!"
"The doctor is amazing. He has the BEST personality for kids and his bedside manner is wonderful. They explain everything well and even explained the possible emotional outburst that may happen later after the procedure bc of the vagus nerve. It prepared us for how to comfort our little one on the drive home and later that afternoon. I feel very confident that we came to the right place."
"We had a great experience here. My son Reid needed tongue / lip / cheek tie revisions done at 2 weeks old, which was an extremely emotional and worrisome thing for a new mom going through the postpartum emotional struggle already. I recommend this practice to everyone that needs it and it was very much worth the commute we had to take from Monroe. The doctor is very gentle and thorough and kind which I appreciated for my son. We specifically appreciated the therapist, I think her name was Deb. She knew what to say to comfort a new mom struggling. I cried in this office more than once over breastfeeding frustrations and she gave comforting advice and encouragement. "Try latching 3 times. If he will not latch after the 3rd time, use the nipple shield and try again at next feeding. Give yourself a little grace". That was phenomenal guidance and eventually he caught on & was breastfed until 13mo old. Please make sure she sees this!!! :)"
"First and foremost, Dr. Persuad, Amelia and Stephanie are the best of their craft. You are in the BEST of hands if you decided to go to this practice. My biggest advice is to be your own advocate as I was originally told by an ENT, pediatrician and multiple lactation consultants a myriad of lies - From “There is no tongue tie or lip tie.” to “There is no data that lip ties cause issues with breastfeeding” to even “Ties often resolve on their own when they get older and they fall” and lastly “They would only use scissors to revise her tongue tie.” Something about all of the above just didn’t sit right with me, so on began my journey to find a practice who would have a full scope solution to the problem. I was recommended to get yet another opinion and landed at the Tongue Tie and Laser Center of Atlanta. Because of my daughter’s revisions, lactation support from Amelia and OT from Stephanie, my journey to exclusively breastfeed is now a reality, and I no longer needed to exclusively pump. Do not let people tell you that “breastfeeding is just not in your cards” if you have the determination and will to do it and with the help of the Tongue Tie Laser Center of Atlanta Team, you most definitively can. Words cannot explain how amazing, thorough and accommodating everyone is. I make a 2 hour trek each week to see them and can say it is SO worth it. You will not be disappointed!"
"This practice will change your life in the most amazing ways. It is a prime example of how a medical practice should operate with holistic care and the patient at the center of everything they do. Our son immediately struggled to latch after he was born. Our pediatrician, well intentioned of course, said he did not see any ties. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. (Lesson learned for all: Beware of asking your pediatrician to diagnose oral ties! They are not specialized to do so!) The pain was intense for mom, the frustration was intense for baby, and the exhaustion was intense for us all. We knew something was wrong and were desperate to ensure mom and baby could exclusively breastfeed per our family’s goals. For the first 2 weeks of life, we worked with an IBCLC, who noted the presence of ties but first sent us to cranio-sacral therapist for a few sessions. That cranio-sacral therapist, along with our pediatric chiropractor, then referred us to the Tongue Tie Laser Center of Atlanta. Both providers were intimately familiar with Dr. Persaud’s & Amelia Persaud’s practice. All I can say is *thank goodness* our path led us to them. They truly changed our lives and turned our breastfeeding journey from a nightmare into a daydream. They are truly incredible at what they do, and rating the team with a 5 is an understatement. Prior to the tongue and lip tie release, our son couldn’t properly latch and his tongue did not reach the top of his mouth. At 3 weeks old, Dr. Persaud released his ties while Amelia taught us basic OT fundamentals and everything in between to ensure we had a holistic care plan in place. Our sessions were a mix of playtime, mobility work, and baby massage. We learned gentle exercises and stretches to continue at home between sessions over the course of 1 month. Their team instilled in us the importance of adopting a holistic approach to frenectomies, including pre- and post-therapy. We continued to see our chiropractor to address muscle tension that was also impacting feeding, and Amelia collaborated with our LC and any other provider we wanted to consult. I appreciated their honesty, authenticity, and extreme level of care – for our son as their patient and for us as his parents. Instead of just recommending surgery for the sake of it, Dr. Persaud and Amelia walked us through the long-term importance & impacts of proper palette development and proper breathing (how to look out for and address mouth breathing). They explained how the tie releases alongside pre- and post-therapy would support our son’s health over his lifetime, and help us achieve our goal of exclusive breastfeeding over the first few years of life. And, they appropriately connected these recommendations/insights to our son's specific needs and care plan. For example: he had buccal ties, as well, but Dr. Persaud determined we did not need to address them. Moral of this example is that they are thoughtful and conscientious about their care - they are not looking to do a frenectomy for the sake of doing it. The Tongue Tie Laser Center of Atlanta was the best thing we did for our son, and for ourselves. One tip is to be sure to set your expectations (and they will help with this) that it may not be an immediate magic fix… but the magic does happen after persistence and dedication to doing the exercises and therapy they will teach you. I remember feeling on the edge of defeat in those first 3 weeks of my son’s life – but they supported us through thick and thin in order to help us achieve our breastfeeding goals. About 5 weeks post-op, breastfeeding became smooth sailing (I really did not believe it was possible given what we had gone through at the beginning!) and we are still nursing 22 months later :D Parents, look no further and don’t give up. The Persauds are superheroes."
