Led by board-certified sleep medicine specialist and otolaryngologist Dr. Brett Scotch, our practice provides a full range of diagnostics and ongoing care for adults who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), central sleep apnea, or complex sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea is much more than just bothersome snoring. It is a serious medical condition that can negatively impact many aspects of your well-being, from intimacy to heart health. If you are displaying one or more of these symptoms of sleep apnea, seek treatment from a sleep medicine specialist:

  • Heavy snoring
  • Waking up abruptly while gasping for breath
  • Morning headaches
  • Episodes of breathing cessation during sleep
  • Unusual daytime fatigue
  • Trouble concentrating, irritability, and memory problems
  • Insomnia

Dr. Scotch has board certification in Sleep Medicine. If he suspects that a patient has sleep apnea, he may order a sleep study at a sleep laboratory, or a home sleep study, after which he will carefully review the results and design an appropriate course of treatment. Depending on the specifics of a patient’s diagnosis, Dr. Scotch may recommend a CPAP/BiPAP device, a custom oromandibular appliance, Inspire® implants, or in a severe case, surgery to adjust jaw position or remove enlarged tonsils or adenoids.
