About the Penn Sleep Centers
The Penn Sleep Centers provide state-of-the-art
diagnostic services and treatment for the full
range of sleep disorders. Accredited by the American
Academy of Sleep Medicine, the Penn Sleep Centers
are the clinical arm of Penn's Center for
Sleep and Respiratory Neurobiology, one
of only three Sleep Centers in the United States

as a specialized center for research in sleep.
A Team of Experts
Our specially trained sleep physicians are based
in the departments of medicine, neurology, psychiatry,
otorhinolaryngology – head and neck surgery,
and oral and maxillofacial surgery. By gathering
our physicians together from different departments,
we are able to maximize the experience and knowledge
of our staff. Depending on what factors are causing
your sleep problems, we have experts on-hand
to focus on your specific needs. Once the cause
of your sleep problem is identified, this same
team can develop a specific treatment program.
State-of-the-Art Equipment
To offer you the most comprehensive evaluation
possible, the Penn Sleep Centers are equipped
with state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to
monitor brain, heart, respiratory and muscle
activity during sleep. This equipment, combined
with our physicians' knowledge of the latest
advances in sleep-related diagnostics and treatment,
enables us to provide the best possible care.
