Comprehensive Sleep Disorder Care
We specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide array of sleep-related breathing disorders and other sleep conditions. Our sleep program is designed to educate you about the symptoms, risks, and evaluation process for conditions like sleep apnea, empowering you to take an active role in your health.
Diagnostic Sleep Studies: Our Sleep Lab is equipped for comprehensive overnight and daytime sleep studies (polysomnography, multiple sleep latency tests) to accurately diagnose various sleep disorders.
Sleep Apnea: From traditional CPAP therapy to cutting-edge alternatives, we are committed to finding the best solution for you. This includes advanced options like implantable sleep apnea treatment for suitable candidates.
-
Implantable Sleep Apnea Treatment: For patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have struggled with CPAP devices, we offer a surgically implanted therapy that eliminates the need to wear a mask when sleeping. This cutting-edge treatment works by delivering gentle pulses that move your tongue forward to keep your airway open, helping you to sleep peacefully. Reach out to our team to learn more and to see if you’re a candidate for this therapy.
