Wednesday, March 5th, 2014 -- 12:34 PM
-Memorial Medical Center will be hosting a CPAP Clinic on March 17th from Noon to 5pm.Jim Dunn, of Whitney Sleep Diagnostics and Consultants, talked about the other services Whitney Sleep provides.
Jim said, "Whitney Sleep was created back in 2008 to serve small town hospitals that really don't have the population to support their own in house sleep program. So we can offer really anything that the clinical big city programs can offer which would be diagnosing and treating all forms of sleep disorders. So what's unique about the sleep program in Neillsville, relative to other hospitals in a similar sized town, is your patients have access to certified sleep doctors. And they get involved after a sleep study or in a consultation if a patient does not need a sleep study. We would meet with them by tele-medicine to work out their sleep issues."
You don't need an appointment for the CPAP clinic, but for those who do want a scheduled time, you can call Whitney Sleep at 877-844-6150 to reserve a time. If you want to purchase new supplies, you can speed up that process by having Whitney Sleep verify your insurance benefits in advance by calling that same number.
