Rex Sleep Disorders Center
Is it hard for you to get out of bed in the morning?
Do you hit the snooze button over and over again?
Are you feeling irritable or stressed?
Are you often tired during the day?
If so, you might have a sleep disorder.
Sleep Disorders from A to Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Rex Sleep Disorders Center specializes in diagnosis and treatment of periodic limb movement, narcolepsy, and sleep apnea, a serious and potentially dangerous condition characterized by brief interruptions of breathing during sleep. Symptoms of sleep apnea include:
- Depression
- Irritability
- Loud snoring and gasping
- Learning and memory dysfunction
- Falling asleep at inopportune times
In order to fully understand sleep patterns and diagnose any problems, various brain activities, body systems and their relationships must be monitored throughout the night. Through an overnight sleep study at Rex Sleep Disorders Center, a recording of physiological measurements will identify your different sleep stages and classify various sleep problems.
A place of rest
All overnight sleep studies are conducted under the direction of a Medical Director who is board-certified in sleep medicine, and trained sleep technologists. Rex now has three convenient locations for sleep testing: Raleigh, Cary and Wakefield. All three locations have full size beds as well as cable television for your comfort. Each of the rooms are similar to a hotel room, offering a tranquil night's sleep to all patients.
Our locations:
- Rex Sleep Disorders Center in Raleigh is a full-service, accredited sleep center. Located at 4210 Lake Boone Trail, behind Rex Wellness Center and in the same facility as Rex Rehabilitation and Nursing Care Center.
- Rex Sleep Disorders Center in Cary is located at 1515 SW Cary Parkway at the Rex Healthcare campus in Cary.
- Rex Sleep Disorders Center of Wakefield is conveniently located at the Holiday Inn Express, 11400 Common Oaks Boulevard, Wakefield.
