“37% of adults in the US have sleep apnea according to new data released in June of 2019. That’s 54 million people. Even more staggering, half are identified as moderate or severe cases, with 40% likely to die within 15 years. The numbers are big, and it’s easy to imagine you’re not one of them, but if you’re snoring or you struggle with one of the associated diseases it’s worth the time to find out.”
–Dr. William Noah, Medical Director
I was surprised at how easy a sleep study was. I was worried it would be stressful but the staff at Sleep Centers of Middle Tennessee made it easy and stress-free. The whole process from study to results and treatment were fast, convenient and most importantly effective for me. I’m sleeping again and so is my wife.

Do You Think You Have Sleep Apnea?
Here are some frequently asked questions we get from people just like you who are wondering if they have sleep apnea and what to do.
Q: Should I be worried if I think I have sleep apnea?
A: If you think you have sleep apnea you need to take it seriously. Sleep apnea can be diagnosed and treated very easily and conveniently in Tennessee. Contact us today and we can help you understand what the next steps are for you.
Q: Will my sleep apnea go away if I just lose some weight?
A: That is a common misconception.There are many benefits to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight and we strongly recommend that you do. While the symptoms of sleep apnea may improve by losing weight, it will not go away and is no less dangerous simply because you notice a reduction in symptoms. Sleep apnea must be diagnosed and treated properly as soon as you notice it.
Q: Do I have to stay the night in a sleep lab hooked up to machines?
A: Some of our patients do in office sleep studies and some do a simple in-home sleep apnea test with easy to use equipment we provide. Understanding your situation will help your sleep specialist determine the best choice for you, with you. By contacting us, we can schedule a time to discuss your situation and what might work best for you.
Q: Will I have to use a CPAP machine?
A: There are a number of ways to treat sleep apnea including a CPAP machine. CPAP machines like all medical technology have advanced greatly in recent years. Most people are surprised at how quiet they are and to learn that many people don’t have to wear a mask on their face. There are even travel machines now that aren’t much bigger than a deck of cards!

I give them my highest recommendation.
Karin Hubbard
I have been a patient since 2014 . I feel that this treatment may have saved my life. I was sent to the sleep center by my cardiologist. I would have never thought that I would have sleep apnea. I feel like a different person. I sleep better than I ever thought. The staff is very friendly and professional. Highly recommend this to anyone.
Jim Lynch
"I really liked the telemedicine appointment. No sitting around in an exam room waiting for the provider or necessarily having to be in the same town. The provider is enabled to spend time with the patient."
