Sleep Better, Wake Up Human.
Diagnosis and treatment for snoring, sleep apnea and insomnia, from home sleep studies to CPAP and surgery.
Sleep problems don't just make you tired. They affect your heart, your metabolism, your mood and your ability to function. We take sleep seriously, diagnose properly, and find treatments that actually fit your life. Often, fixing your nose or managing your weight fixes your sleep.
Do I Have a Sleep Problem?
Many people put up with poor sleep for years without realising there is a treatable cause. If any of these sound familiar, it is worth getting checked:
Sleep Apnea and Snoring
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) happens when your airway repeatedly closes during sleep. You stop breathing for seconds at a time, your oxygen drops, and your brain wakes you just enough to restart breathing. This can happen dozens or even hundreds of times a night without you knowing. You wake up tired, your partner hears loud snoring and gasping, and your health suffers.
Understanding the AHI Score
Sleep doctors use the AHI (Apnea-Hypopnea Index) to measure severity. Mild sleep apnea typically starts around 5 to 15 events per hour; moderate is 15 to 30; severe is above 30. Your sleep study report explains your exact number and what it means for your treatment options.

Home Sleep Study: How It Works
No need to spend a night in a hospital sleep lab. Our home sleep study lets you sleep in your own bed while we collect the data needed to diagnose sleep apnea. Here's how it works:
Evening Setup
A technician visits your home in the evening, fits the monitoring equipment and ensures everything is working correctly.
Sleep in Your Own Bed
You sleep normally in your own bed wearing the device. It records your breathing, oxygen levels, heart rate and body position overnight.
Morning Collection
The technician returns the next morning to collect the equipment. No need to drive anywhere or return the device yourself.
Analysis and Follow-up
The data is analysed and discussed at your follow-up appointment. We explain your AHI score and what it means for your treatment.
Treatment Options
There is no one-size-fits-all treatment for sleep apnea. We assess your severity, anatomy and lifestyle to recommend the right approach for you.
CPAP Therapy
The gold standard for moderate to severe sleep apnea. A mask delivers gentle air pressure to keep your airway open. We help with mask fitting, pressure settings and ongoing support to make it work for you.
Lifestyle and Weight Management
Losing weight can significantly reduce sleep apnea severity. We provide practical guidance on diet, exercise and sleep hygiene. Even a 10% weight loss can make a meaningful difference.
ENT and Sleep Surgery
For selected patients with structural problems like a deviated septum, enlarged tonsils or floppy palate. Surgery is not for everyone, but for the right patient, it can reduce or eliminate the need for CPAP.
Bariatric Surgery
For patients with severe obesity-related sleep apnea where weight loss is essential. We work with partner bariatric surgeons and provide coordinated follow-up to manage your sleep apnea before, during and after surgery.
Insomnia and Other Sleep Issues
Not all sleep problems are about snoring. Insomnia, the inability to fall asleep or stay asleep, is incredibly common and often undertreated. Shift work, anxiety, poor sleep habits and medical conditions can all contribute. We focus on finding the cause and using non-drug strategies first.
Common insomnia patterns we see
Our Approach
We start with sleep hygiene education and behavioural strategies like stimulus control and sleep restriction, which are proven to work better than sleeping pills in the long run. If medication is needed, we use it thoughtfully and aim to taper off when possible. We also check for underlying causes like sleep apnea, restless legs or depression.
Follow-Up and Long-Term Care
We don't just hand you a CPAP machine and disappear. Sleep treatment requires adjustment and support. We review your data, check your mask fit, troubleshoot problems and tweak settings to optimise your therapy. For surgical patients, we track recovery and repeat sleep studies when needed.
Long-term, we monitor your sleep health alongside your blood pressure, weight and overall wellbeing. Sleep apnea is a chronic condition, and we are here for the long haul.
Tired of Being Tired?
If you wake up exhausted, if your partner complains about your snoring, or if you cannot seem to get a good night's rest no matter what you try, it is time to find out why. We will listen without judgment and help you sleep better.
