The WNJ Sleep Center was developed to diagnose and treat common sleep disturbances that may be affecting you or someone you love.
Under the medical direction of Muqdad Zuriqat, M.D., our team of specialists provide diagnostic and therapeutic sleep studies
in a private, comfortable setting. Our staff is trained in the latest diagnostic and treatment procedures, and they are committed to
providing you with the highest quality of care.
Sleep Evaluation
If you suspect you have a sleep-related problem, the WNJ Sleep Center urges you to seek help now.
The first step in seeking help with a sleep complaint is to discuss it with your family physician. Not all complaints require a
sleep study. Your physician will refer you for a consult with our board certified sleep specialist where you will be thoroughly
evaluated. If a sleep study is required, you will be referred to the WNJ Sleep Center to schedule your appointment.
What to Expect During Your Sleep Study
The WNJ Sleep Center is designed with our patients' comfort in mind. Each of our rooms are decoratively furnished and include
a queen size bed, private bath, and television. Before you fall asleep, our technician will connect electrodes and sensors to you in
order to monitor your sleep. The study is a completely non-invasive, painless procedure performed to determine if you have a sleep disorder.
You will be ready to leave the hospital around 6:00 a.m. the morning following your sleep study, avoiding interruption to your normal
daily activities. A free breakfast from the WNJ Cafeteria will be provided to all patients.
What Happens After my Sleep Study?
After
the sleep study is completed and "scored", the sleep physician will review the recording in order to establish a diagnosis
and treatment plan, which will be reviewed with you in a follow up visit.
Insurance
Sleep disorder testing is covered by most insurance plans, including Medicare.
We Can Help
Sleep is essential for all of us to maintain a healthy lifestyle. When we don't get enough sleep, we can feel worn out, stressed
and unable to function normally. Fatigue can affect your work, your play and your family life. The good news is that in most cases,
sleep disorders can be easily managed once they are properly diagnosed and treated.
