Ep 17 Alabama Tongue Tie with Richard Baxter, DMD, MS

Dr Baxter is not only an amazing Pediatric dentist, a fantastic release provider, wonderful teacher (creator of Tongue-Tied Academy), he is also the best selling author of "Tongue Tied- How a Tiny String Under the Tongue Impacts Nursing, Speech, Feeding and More".  Katie spent the day watching Richard meet with patients, do a through assessment and then a complete release and can understand why he is so very busy.  Even on his busiest days, Richard takes the time to stop and pray with every patient before the procedure and shows how much he truly cares about each and every family he meets.  Dr Baxter also is doing amazing research to help the field of tongue tie progress with evidence to show how a complete release can impact a persons overall health.
