So Many Babies

After completing medical school in South Carolina and residency and fellowship training in Texas, Susan Landers, MD practiced full-time neonatology (the intensive care of critically ill premature and newborn infants) while raising three children. She has worked in academic medicine, on the faculty of two medical schools, and in a private practice. Susan's children presented her and her physician husband with many challenges over the years, trials and struggles which she considers typical for all working mothers. For many years, Susan worked for the American Academy of Pediatrics as an expert in breastfeeding medicine, writing policy, and teaching at national conferences. She has been interviewed by many news outlets about her work using donor human milk in the NICU and her work with the Mother's Milk Bank of Austin. She resides in Austin, TX.
