At NYU Langone’s Comprehensive Epilepsy Center—Sleep Center, we know that proper sleep is essential for health. We specialize in treating adults with a full range of sleep disorders.

The symptoms of sleep disorders, such as chronic insomnia, snoring, fragmented sleep, and daytime sleepiness, are common and often ignored. However, these symptoms can be associated with serious medical conditions. Obstructive sleep apnea, often indicated by snoring, causes people to stop breathing during sleep. It is associated with hypertension, heart disease, and stroke. Insomnia, if chronic and left untreated, can lead to depression and daytime sleepiness, which contributes to motor vehicle accidents.

The team of professionals at the Comprehensive Epilepsy Center—Sleep Center includes board certified sleep specialists, neurologists, and certified sleep technologists. Our specialists have many years of experience treating sleep disorders of all kinds, including narcolepsy, circadian rhythm sleep disorders, and restless legs syndrome. We also treat sleep symptoms related to chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and other neurological conditions.

In addition, we are part of NYU Langone’s Comprehensive Epilepsy Center, one of the leading epilepsy centers in the United States. We use our expertise to help patients with seizures achieve a good quality and quantity of sleep. This, in turn, may help with controlling seizures.

Patient Testing Room

Our facility has six patient testing rooms and offers the latest technology for diagnosing sleep disorders.

Identifying a Sleep Disorder

The symptoms of sleep disorders are often overlooked as a common result of a hectic lifestyle. But if you find it difficult to stay awake while reading, have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, or are easily irritated, these could be signs that you are not getting the quantity and quality of sleep that you need.

Other signs of sleep disorder include the following:

  • struggling to get out of bed in the morning, because you don’t feel rested
  • needing a cup of coffee or a “sugar boost” in the afternoon
  • a reliance on sleeping pills to get a good night’s rest
  • discomfort in your legs that stops you from falling asleep
  • a history of anxiety or depression

Our facility has six patient testing rooms and offers the latest technology for diagnosing sleep disorders in children and adults. We are an accredited center of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, which means we meet and exceed the highest patient care standards in the field of sleep medicine.

Because we are leaders in research into sleep disorders, you can be confident you will receive innovative treatment that helps you live a healthy, productive, well-rested life.
