Whether you are referred by your physician or coming in on your own, we are here to guide you through every step of the process.

 

Step 1: Referral or Self-Referral

​

You may be referred by your physician or you may self-refer directly to our office. If your physician refers you, you will likely be scheduled for a polysomnogram (PSG) and a consultation. If you are self-referring, you will be scheduled for a consultation with our sleep-certified physician and then directed to the appropriate testing.

 

Step 2: Sleep Testing Options

​

Polysomnogram (PSG)

​

A PSG is a comprehensive diagnostic study that records your brainwaves, heart function, limb movements, airflow, respirations, and oxygen levels to evaluate for sleep apnea.

​

What to expect during your PSG:

​

• Arrive at your scheduled time and eat dinner beforehand

• Take any medications as normal (if you take a sleeping aid, bring it with you)

• Dress in comfortable clothing — no silk or satin

• Leads will be attached to record your brainwaves, heart function, limb movements, airflow, respirations, and oxygen levels

• You will be released between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM the following morning

• If you are a patient of our clinic, you will be contacted once your results are ready. If you were referred by an outside physician, results will be faxed to your doctor.

​

Our team is here to support you and your family every step of the way.
