During Your Visit

An initial appointment usually lasts thirty minutes to an hour.  At this time a sleep specialist will review the questionnaires you completed, carefully go over your medical history, and listen your questions and concerns about your health.

Depending on your symptoms, you may be prescribed an overnight sleep study to measure the amount and quality of your sleep and to identify any abnormalities during sleep.  Our receptionist will assist you in scheduling the study if needed.  You are welcome to take a quick tour of the sleep center after your appointment to familiarize yourself with our clinic.

After Your Sleep Study

If you have a sleep study, the data collected during your overnight stay will be analyzed by a sleep specialist.  Based on the results, treatment options and recommendations will be given to you, as well as your primary care provider.  Evaluation and follow-up are the important next steps.
