SleepTrends Diagnostic Centers is a physician owned sleep lab, accredited with the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
We evaluate and treat adults and children (as young as 3 years old) experiencing sleep disorders, such as Sleep Apnea, Snoring, Insomnia, Restless Leg Syndrome, Narcolepsy, and other common conditions.
The importance of having good sleep is vital for your health. Your private life may begin to suffer if you have an untreated sleep disorder. Many students suffering from sleep disorders usually have poor academic performance. Children may develop behavioral disorders such as ADHD, depression, and may be labeled as slow or lazy.
One of the most common sleep issues we treat is Obstructive Sleep Apena (OSA). An individual with OSA usually experiences times during sleep where car is not flowing normally through lungs. OSA can be very dangerous, as you can fall asleep while driving, develop high blood pressure, heart disease, or have a stroke.
