Sleep Apnea Treatment

As awareness increases about sleep apnea, Dr. Lenz has taken a more active role in its diagnosis and treatment. A majority of people who have sleep apnea do not know it. Dr. Lenz can help you identify symptoms of the condition, evaluate its progression and recommend treatment to prevent complications such as high blood pressure, heart attacks, stroke, obesity or depression.

Sleep apnea is defined as the condition when a person stops breathing for several seconds at a time throughout the night. This disrupts their sleep and affects the supply of oxygen to the blood. Treatment ranges from a simple mouthpiece to an air pump to help regulate breathing.
