The Center for Sleep

Medicine at SOCH


At The Center for Sleep Medicine at SOCH, a dedicated team of specialists will conduct a diagnostic study to help identify a sleep disorder.  The study is conducted during the overnight hours while you sleep in a home-like, private room – complete with comfortable, new furnishings, a bath, shower and flat screen TV.

The sleep study will then be evaluated by a SOCH physician who specializes in sleep disorders, and a course of treatment will be prescribed.

Symptoms of a sleep disorder include:

  • Snoring usually loud
  • Gaps or irregularities in breathing during sleep (usually noted by bed partner)
  • Unrefreshed sleep
  • Daytime sleepiness and napping
  • Restless sleep
  • Difficulty getting to sleep or staying asleep
  • Painful or crawling sensations in legs while sitting quietly or lying in bed
  • Jerking of limbs, particularly legs, during sleep
  • Weak spells associated with anger or laughter
  • Vivid, frightening or violent dreams
