Diagnosing a sleep disorder
In order to accurately diagnosis a sleep disorder, patients will be invited to stay at our state-of-the-art sleep center. Tucked away in a quiet part of the hospital, we have beautifully decorated, home-like rooms with queen-sized beds, recliners and flat screen televisions. Our goal is to ensure you are as relaxed as possible during your stay.
During the sleep study, technicians will attach small sensors to your body before you fall asleep.

- Brain wave activity

The doctors and technicians use this information to help determine the cause of your sleep condition and create an individualized treatment plan to help you get a good night's rest.
