The Sleep Center at Athol Memorial Hospital
978-249-1244

You will spend nearly one-third of your life sleeping. A sleep disorder can significantly affect both the quality of your sleep and your health. An estimated 40 million Americans suffer from sleep disorders, yet fewer than 20 percent have ever initiated a discussion about the problem with their physician.

Sleep disorders lead to sleep deprivation which can wreak havoc in your waking life. It can cause daytime fatigue, poor concentration, depression, and lapses in memory. Sleep disorders range from insomnia to apnea – a condition in which the sufferer stops breathing for limited periods during sleep. So, if you’re not sleeping as soundly as you would like, or for as long as you’d like, you may suffer from a sleep disorder. Sleep center staff photo
