Pediatric sleep medicine

Determining if your child has a sleep problem begins with a visit to our board-certified sleep specialists. We treat many common sleep disorders, as well as rare sleep problems, in children. Obstructive sleep apnea, central sleep apnea, insomnia and excessive daytime sleepiness are a few of the most common disorders we diagnose and treat. We start with an office visit to better understand the type of sleep problem and then recommend the best plan to diagnose and treat your child.

Our experts will work with you on a treatment plan to improve your child’s sleep. We have a number of sleep clinic locations where patients may undergo sleep testing.

If obstructive sleep apnea is caused by enlarged tonsils and adenoids, we’ll connect you with a pediatric ear, nose and throat surgeon because this operation may be needed to remove them.
