Get Better Sleep
Sleep is crucial to our long-term health. Sadly, many people are severely lacking in that department and face symptoms ranging from general lack of alertness and daytime sleepiness to impaired memory, stress, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, depression, reduced immune system function, and more. Understanding and controlling your sleep issues require medical intervention from a true sleep specialist. We offer state-of-the-art sleep study services that are effective and cost significantly less than receiving the same services in a hospital setting.
Our sleep lab is accredited by the American Academy for Sleep Medicine and approved by Medicare and most other insurances.

Instead of a hospital bed, our Sleep Centers are equipped with a bed similar in comfort to your bed at home. We monitor your airflow, breathing, respiration, oxygen, and sleep stages while you are asleep. No needles are involved in this painless process, and patients usually adapt to these monitoring devices within minutes. Most patients can go straight to work the next morning. With prior notice, arrangements can be made for a family member to sleep in an adjacent room if needed.
We offer the following sleep tests:
- Polysomnogram (Sleep Study) — Diagnosis of sleep apnea and disorders such as sleep-walking and REM-related sleep disorders.
- Titration (Sleep Study) — Used to determine the pressure you will need using the CPAP/Bi-PAP.
- Multiple sleep latency tests (MSLT) — Measures how long it takes you to fall asleep and also checks the stages of sleep. This test is used to diagnose conditions such as narcolepsy or idiopathic hypersomnia.
- Maintenance of wakefulness test (MWT) — Measures whether you can stay awake during a time when you are normally awake. This test is used to assess the effectiveness of treatment for hypersomnia conditions.
- Pediatric Sleep Disorders
