What To Expect If You Want A Sleep Study

We know all the right people to get you fixed fast! Start by arranging a consultation with a physician to discuss your current sleep experiences. They’ll be able to order the sleep study on your behalf and arrange the necessary insurance authorizations.

Just prior to turning off the lights for the night, you’ll apply and wear the home sleep testing device as instructed and demonstrated earlier in the day.
