Working with infants post tongue and lip tie procedures is another passion area for Sarah.  She has worked alongside families through this process as well as experiencing it herself as a mother.

Amanda Hogan is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (CNSC) specializing in Pediatric nutrition. She began her career developing nutrition support therapies for critically ill infants whose only option for nutrition was through tube feeds or IV nutrition support. While she understands and appreciates these life-saving technologies, her true passion is helping patients and families move beyond tube dependency to intuitive oral eating. Amanda strives to develop true partnerships with families as they embark on the exciting –yet often intimidating journey to independent oral eating. Her interventions are designed to thoughtfully and safely re-engage the child’s internal hunger and satiety drives while instilling parent confidence and trust around feeling their children solid foods. 

Amanda played collegiate volleyball at the Division 1 level and still enjoys a competitive game. She also has a love/hate relationship with golf and loves exploring the mountains with her husband and two young children.
