What Our Patients Say

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

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 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.

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 think Dr. Sangal and his staff are wonderful. Everyone is polite and caring. Dr. Sangal has extended my life by diagnosing my sleep apnea and putting me on a treatment plan. I was headed for a stroke and didn’t know it. Thank you Dr. Sangal for all your good care!
