Southern Sleep Studies recommends the patient follow these steps:
All patients need to discuss this procedure (the sleep study) with their primary care physician.
Most physicians will question patient about their symptoms. Patients deprived of sleep will definitely be able to explain all the symptoms, which relate to a sleep disorder.
The patient’s medical doctor will order a sleep study to determine if there is a sleep disorder present during sleep.
The patient’s medical doctor will give the patient an order for the study. This order can be called and faxed in to Southern Sleep Studies at (770)-716-1814.
All patients are scheduled for studies based on their work schedule.
Most patients come in at 7:30 PM, have the study, shower, and head to work thereafter. Each room is equipped with a private bathroom.
