Smart Sleep Tip: Finding a Doctor through the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM)

First of all, when our patients come to us, we have to make sure that their snoring is not something more serious like a disorder that is called obstructive sleep apnea. With obstructive sleep apnea, a person stops or pauses breathing up to hundreds of times per hour during sleep which can lead to many other health problems.

Very often, we will refer our patients to their physicians to get evaluated. If you do not have a current physician, or if you are looking for someone specialized in sleep medicine, visit the website of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) to find a physician in your area knowledgeable in sleep disorders.

Our smart sleep tip of the day: if you are interested in finding out if your snoring is more serious such as with .obstructive sleep apnea, talk to your physician or find a physician through the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
