Sleep study

A sleep study helps find answers for sleep problems so you can rest easier and improve your health. Our sleep team will guide you from referral through results and treatment options tailored just for you.

Many people struggle with sleep and may not realize a sleep disorder is causing their issues. Left untreated, sleep disorders can contribute to serious health problems, including stroke, heart failure, and high blood pressure, and increase the risk of accidents at work or on the road. The good news is that most sleep disorders are easy to diagnose with a sleep study and are treatable once identified.

A physician referral is required to schedule your study. Once received, our staff will contact you to arrange your test. Our sleep center is open seven nights a week to fit your schedule, and we offer specialized testing and daytime options for night-shift workers.
