The Sleep Lab provides services to Conrad and the surround area. We have been running our  sleep lab since October of 2009. Our sleep center is located away from other patient rooms, so it is very quite. The sleep room has been updated with new paint, a new Temper-pedic bed, and a new flat screen T.V. Patients state they do not feel like they are in a hospital setting with the new updates. 
    We provide diagnostic services for a wide range of sleep disorders including Obstructive Sleep Apnea, Narcolepsy, Periodic Limb Movement Disorder, as well as other sleeping disorders.

   Serving as Medical Director is Dr. Jay Taylor.

The Sleep Center Coordinator is John Carlbom, EMT.
