St. Josephs Health Centre provides sleep study testing. Typical symptoms of a sleep disorder are tiredness during the day,  snoring at night, frequent headaches, dry mouth when you wake up, sleepiness after lunch, restless legs that keep you awake at night and insomnia.

Patients who are referred by their doctor, come in for their appointment at approximately 7:30 p.m. at night. They will be met by a Sleep Technologist who will explain the procedure and prepare the patient.

All we ask is that you bring comfortable bed clothing to wear, a favorite pillow and if you like a snack before bed, you may bring that too.  Patients are woken around 6:00 a.m. and are able to leave shortly thereafter.

If you have any questions regarding the sleep lab, you may call our office at 416-530-6000 ext. 4599.
