Sleep Clinic

If you’re tired and run down, you might not be sleeping at night. Many people blame getting older, or a hectic lifestyle for their tiredness but you might have a sleep disorder.

Some estimates say that nearly ten percent of all people in the United States have some form of sleep disorder. Untreated, sleep disorders can greatly affect daytime functioning. Some sufferers awaken with headaches; others may be irritable and forgetful, sometimes finding it difficult to concentrate for the rest of the day.

We understand the frustration that comes with living with a sleeping disorder. They can stem from many medical conditions, from gastrointestinal problems to cardiac disease and can be difficult to diagnose. A sleep study is necessary to correctly identify a sleep disorder and receive treatment.

Take our sleep assessment below to determine if you may need a sleep study.
