Evaluation and Treatment

The Alabama Sleep Clinic is a medical practice specializing in the evaluation and treatment of sleep disorders.

Evaluation-Evaluations are typically performed by one of the clinical staff at one of the Alabama Sleep Clinic locations.

Evaluations usually consist of a limited physical exam and discussion about your sleep problems, symptoms and concerns with a physician. You will likely be asked to complete a sleep questionnaire so you may consider downloading the Adult or Pediatric Questionnaire. Alternatively you may pick up one at an Alabama Sleep Clinic office or request one be faxed to your home or work. If you plan to complete the questionnaire at the office simply arrive early and bring your medications, or at least a list of same.

Although not necessary, it is helpful to review the questionnaire with and/or be accompanied at the evaluation by a spouse, relative, bed partner or other individual who has had the opportunity to observe you sleep.

Your sleep doctor may recommend a “sleep study” which is generally performed at one of five sleep center testing sites where the doctor has privileges. Currently these are located in Huntsville (2), Madison, Decatur and Scottsboro. The test usually takes place overnight but some studies occur in the day.

Once your evaluation and any sleep studies are complete your sleep doctor will make treatment recommendations.

See the scheduling an appointment page on this web site if you wish to schedule an appointment.

Treatment-A treatment plan will be developed and recommended by your sleep doctor. Treatments are extremely varied and tailored specifically to your sleep disorder/problems.
