What Happens on My First Visit

The Baptist Sleep Lab is designed to help people discover the cause of their sleeplessness or excessive sleepiness, and then determine the most effective treatment options available to them.

There are two ways to be referred to the Baptist Sleep Lab:

1. A person may make a self-referral to the Baptist Sleep Lab. On the first visit, our physician will perform a physical and acquire an extensive history to determine if the patient should be further evaluated by undergoing a sleep test.
2. A person may be sent by a family doctor for evaluation. Tests are usually performed without any further evaluation from our sleep physicians. All patients fill out an extensive questionnaire.
