Special Interests

My research revolves around the consequences of Sleep Apnea and methods to improve response to treatment. I have several grants examining the utility of behavioral approaches to therapy that might improve adherence as well as the cognitive cerebrovascular consequences of Sleep Apnea. I also have students studying insomnia in medical conditions.

Patient Ratings

The Patient Rating score is an average of all responses to care provider related questions on our independent rating system, the Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. This survey is about the patient care experience and does not address crucial characteristics like medical decision-making, prescribing the best therapy, and patient outcomes.

Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score. Learn more about our patient satisfaction survey.
