MND Champions

Specialized support beyond the NICU.

Physician-led follow-up for premature and medically complex infants after discharge — from a doctor who has spent her career at the bedside of the smallest patients, and who was once one of them.

964g

Dr. Alile's own birth weight, born at 28 weeks — roughly two pounds.

Why this program exists

Discharge day is not the finish line. Families leave the NICU with a car seat, a folder of instructions, and a hundred questions that surface at 2 a.m. weeks later. Feeding that stalls. Sleep that never settles. Milestones measured against a calendar that doesn't account for how early a baby arrived.

Years in neonatal intensive care taught Dr. Alile to notice small changes, respect physiology, and listen closely when a parent says something isn't right. MND Champions brings that same attention to the months and years after the monitors come off.

Her work here is personal. She was born prematurely herself, at a time when babies her size were not expected to survive. NICU graduates are not defined by how their stories began — they are children with their own strengths, possibilities, and futures.

What MND Champions addresses

The concerns that follow a family home.

Care is tailored to your child. Depending on their history, a visit may cover any of the following — including the longer-term effects of prematurity or a medically complex beginning.

  • Growth and weight gain

  • Nutrition and fortification

  • Feeding difficulty and aversion

  • Reflux

  • Sleep

  • Development and milestones

  • Behavior and regulation

  • Nervous-system regulation

  • Gut health and digestion

  • Immune health and recurring illness

  • Skin and chronic inflammation

  • Supplement safety and review

The visit

Unhurried, structured, and built around your child's whole story.

We review the full picture — birth history, hospital course, growth, feeding, sleep, development, medications, supplements, and family context — not just the presenting symptom. You leave with a prioritized plan you understand and can act on, not another referral.

My Native Doctor® works alongside your child's pediatrician and specialists as part of their broader care team.

Longitudinal care

Follow-up that lasts as long as your child needs it.

Prematurity is not a single appointment's worth of questions. Growth, feeding, sleep and development unfold over months, and the concerns that matter at four months corrected are not the ones that matter at eighteen. These programs hold that timeline for you — and spread the cost across it.

How the programs work

  • Billed monthly. There is no upfront payment for the full term.

  • Leave when you need to. If you stop early, visits you haven't used are not charged. Visits already completed are billed at standard rates — $450, $300 and $200 — so the program discount applies to a completed term.

  • Secure messaging has a shape. Non-urgent questions, weekdays, answered within two business days. It is not for urgent concerns, and never for an emergency. If your child is acutely ill, call your pediatrician or go to the nearest emergency department.

  • The consultation for mother. She is seen as her own patient, with her own intake and consent. Virtual visits require her to be located in Illinois, California, Maryland or North Carolina. One visit is included; continuing care for her is available at standard adult rates.

  • No commitment required. Single visits remain available at $450 whenever you prefer.

IS THIS RIGHT FOR YOU?

Who this is for — and who it isn't for.

We would rather help you find the right care than have you book the wrong visit.

THIS MAY BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU ARE

  • Specialized follow-up for a premature or medically complex infant after NICU discharge

  • A physician-led, whole-child evaluation from a neonatologist

  • Root-cause exploration for feeding, growth, sleep, behavior or gut concerns

  • Neurodiversity and developmental support within an integrative framework

  • A safe review of your child's supplements alongside their current care

  • A care plan that treats you as a partner, not an afterthought

THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT SETTING FOR

  • Emergency or urgent pediatric care

  • Well-child visits or routine sick visits

  • Routine immunizations

  • Acute illness requiring same-day conventional treatment

  • Psychiatric crisis or acute mental health stabilization

  • Replacing your child's primary care pediatrician

  • A guaranteed cure or a one-supplement solution

My Native Doctor® is a consultative practice. We recommend every child keep a primary care pediatrician for routine, preventive and urgent needs, and we recommend childhood vaccination — administered by your child's primary pediatrician, not in our clinic.
