“Normal” snoring is usually just a consistent sound. Sleep Apnea is different, it often involves loud snoring interrupted by gasping, choking sounds, or actual pauses in your breathing. If you wake up with a headache, a dry mouth, or feel exhausted even after a full night’s sleep, it’s worth getting checked out.

Yes. Insomnia isn’t just “not being able to sleep”, it’s often tied to medical, behavioral, or psychological factors. We look at the root cause to help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer, so you aren’t struggling through a “brain fog” the next day.

It’s much simpler than it sounds. Instead of spending the night in a hospital lab, we give you a small, portable device to take home. You sleep in your own bed, and the device quietly tracks your breathing, heart rate, and oxygen levels. It’s convenient, private, and gives us the exact data we need.

For most people suspected of having Sleep Apnea, a home test is a clinically proven and highly accurate way to get a diagnosis. Most patients prefer it because it’s more comfortable and much more affordable than an overnight hospital stay.

We know you’re anxious to start feeling better. Once you return the device to our office, our doctors review your data. You can typically expect your results and a treatment plan within 7 to 10 business days.

It depends on your insurance. Many “PPO” plans let you book with us directly. However, if you have an “HMO” plan, your insurance company usually requires a referral from your primary doctor first. If you’re unsure, give us a call at (706) 613-6990 and we can help you figure it out.

We accept most major providers, including Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Georgia, UnitedHealthcare, and Aetna. If you are uninsured or worried about the cost, ask us about our Physicians’ Circle program, we believe everyone deserves a good night’s sleep regardless of their budget.

Just keep things normal! Follow your usual bedtime routine, but try to avoid caffeine or alcohol after lunchtime. Our staff will show you exactly how to wear the sensors before you leave the office so the data we collect is perfect.

If you experience “The Big Three”, loud snoring, gasping for air, or extreme daytime fatigue then it’s time to come in. It’s especially important if you find yourself nodding off at work or, more importantly, while driving.
