What do I need to do first?
You will be scheduled for a consultation with our board certified sleep doctor. During this visit, the doctor will determine if it is necessary to conduct a sleep study. If you are in need of a sleep study, we will schedule it at this appointment. You will be shown our sleep center so you will be familiar with where you will be sleeping when you return for the sleep study.

When will I know the results of my sleep study?
Typically when we schedule you for your sleep study we also will set up a time about a week later for you to review the results of your study with the doctor. If your study shows that you have severe sleep apnea we may call you to come in sooner for treatment.

May my spouse come with me?
Yes, in fact we encourage you to bring your spouse for your visits with the doctor since spouses usually can offer valuable input and can tell the doctor what they observe while you sleep. If you wish, he or she may stay the night with you on a rollaway bed in your room. Please make arrangements with your scheduler ahead of time so we can be prepared. Children or pets are not permitted to stay overnight.

What should I wear?
We ask that you bring something comfortable to sleep in, such as pajamas or sweatpants (shorts) and a T-shirt. Since you may need to stay for additional testing the next day it is better if you bring something that you can wear in the lounge between naps. No, you may not sleep in the nude.

Will there be a television in my room?
It is not good sleep hygiene to have a television on while you are trying to sleep. This is why we do not have one in our sleep rooms. However, there is a television in the lounge and you are welcome to watch it until you are ready for bed.

May I bring my own pillow?
There are two pillows on each bed, but you are welcome to bring your own if you like.

What if the doctor tells me I need to stay for more testing the next day?
Sometimes this is necessary to fully diagnose your sleep disorder. If you need to stay for daytime naps we will wake you around 6 a.m. and feed you breakfast (we have oatmeal, cereal, breakfast sandwiches, juice and decaf coffee). You will be taking naps at 8 a.m., 10 a.m., noon, 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. We also furnish lunch (usually we order LaRosa’s and you can pick what you like from the menu). You may not have any caffeine during the day.

May I smoke?
We have an outside area where you may go to smoke. There are some restrictions if you are here in the daytime for a nap test, such as no smoking one-half hour before each nap. Your technician can explain this to you.
