Sleep & Respiratory Care Solutions
Sleep Disorder Care
Sleep accounts for approximately one third of our lives, and a growing number of physicians believe that it should receive more attention from the medical community. Researchers have linked sleep-related illnesses to hypertension, stroke, congestive heart failure, depression, and an overall decreased quality of life. Untreated sleep disorders can increase your risk of high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, diabetes, obesity, depression and cancer.
If you’re having trouble falling asleep, staying asleep or staying awake during the day, call us for an appointment.
