What Our Patients Say

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 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 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 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.

Joesph O'Bryan

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.

It is great to be able to rest, and to be able to think again. My sleep is clear and restful and I have more energy and I am loving it! Thank you Dr. Sangal.

Nathan Johnson

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.

Angie

What an amazing sleep facility. I was very impressed with the hotel-type accomodations in my room. Because I also deal with asthma, my breathing was difficulty for a while before sleeping. Both the Sleep Techs were very attentive and made certain I was comfortable. Outstanding experience!

Nan

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!

La-Von

This has been one of the most beneficial medical treatments I have evern received. Good treatments might deliver most of what is expected. But Dr. Sangal & his team delivered 100% of what I needed. I feel great!
