Erin Appleton

Dr. Appleton is a Family Medicine physician who has been practicing Breastfeeding Medicine exclusively since 2012. She is the co-founder of Nurture Family Feeding Clinic in Alberta, Canada, and the creator of Latching Logic, an online resource providing evidence-based support for breast and bottle feeding.

Her personal experiences with breastfeeding her own children sparked a passion for supporting others in their feeding journeys. This dedication led her to focus her medical career on becoming an expert in infant feeding and fourth trimester care.

Dr. Appleton is deeply committed to Breastfeeding Medicine and considers serving on the board of NABBLM an honor. Her vision is to advance the visibility of this underrepresented field and to engage the broader medical community in recognizing Breastfeeding and Lactation Medicine (BFLM) as a specialty on a global scale.
