Sleep plays an important role in keeping the human body running smoothly. A biological clock located in the brain regulates circadian (daily) sleeping and waking patterns. When we don’t get enough sleep on a regular basis, we establish a sleep debt and are unable to perform at our best throughout the day. As high as 30 to 40 percent of the adult population in the US are plagued by sleeping disorders, and many go untreated.
Our team of sleep specialists includes board certified Sleep Disorder Specialist Dr. Paul Neis and technologists who are registered by the American Board of Sleep Medicine and the Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists. The Baxter Health Sleep Disorder Center is an American Academy of Sleep Medicine Accredited Sleep Center. We work with your primary care physician to identify sleep disorders and develop a treatment plan for you. Appointments can be made through a referral from your physician, or by contacting Dr. Neis at (870) 424-4200.
