Current Clinical Trials

Currently we are conducting the following Clinical Trials:

Idiopathic Hypersomnia Clinical Trial: Patients ages 18-55, with Idiopathic Hypersomnia. This study is looking at the effect of a new medicine on sleepiness in patients with Idiopathic Hypersomnia who have access to their previous test results confirming Idiopathic Hypersomnia. It lasts 10 weeks, with up to five 24 hour stays with us as well as two other visits. We pay up to $2000 for the subject’s time and expenses.
Adult Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Clinical Trial: Patients ages 18-55, with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. This study is looking at the effect of a new medicine (a new version of amphetamine) on attention deficit in adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It lasts 8 weeks, with 7 office visits.

Clinical trials come and go, and they fill up fast.

What Our Patients Say

I’m so glad I came to see Dr. Sangal for help with my sleep apnea. With the treatment I am sleeping so much better now and feel great throughtout the day.

MP

I can’t rave enough about Dr. Sangal and his staff. The way this doctor thoroughly assesses and treats, and monitors patients with sleep disorders and ADHD is unbelievable. I’ve learned so much in being his patient and have watched both my daughter’s and my own sleep/ADHD conditions improve immensely. I would highly recommend this doctor and his wonderful staff.

ADD Mom

I have been extremely impressed with Dr. Sangal and all of his staff. Everyone has been so helpful and wonderfull explaining all the testing to us. We felt right at home when my daugther did her sleep apnea test, she was very comfortable. I recommend Dr. Sangal, Im very happy with everything.

Dr. Sangal & his friendly staff made my experience comfortable & reassuring. The CPAP has saved my life & I could not be more thankful for Dr. Sangal & the family-like atmosphere of his practice.

Dr. Sangal not only has helped my son’s ADHD, but the staff is helpful & courteous, and Dr. Sangal always runs on time & we never wait very long.

Tara Yagonczak

I have used CPAP every night for more than 15 years. Dr. Sangal has worked with me over time and I believe CPAP treatment has made my life, in general, easier; reducing fatigue which had built up over the years in my profession. I am today more relaxed and better able to handle the problems and anxieties of life, and am better able to enjoy my family and relate better to friends and associates. I am 77 years old.

Cookie

Dr. Sangal and his office staff are so pleasant and made me feel so comfortable. I was always able to schedule an appointment quickly and my treatment showed immediate improvements to my sleep.

Tired mom of three

I enjoy comeing in to see the Dr. because of all the great people he has working for him. You all are so good that I fell like I am at home when I come in.

June 25, 2018

Are you tired, sleepy, fatigued? You may have Idiopathic Hypersomnia. Sleep medicine doctors often ignore idiopathic hypersomnia. Many sleep medicine doctors focus exclusively on sleep apnea.

In my experience, narcolepsy without cataplexy (now called narcolepsy…
