Northside Hospital will host a community open house of its new state-of-the-art Sleep Disorders Center in Sandy Springs.

The open house will take place 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, March 28. The facility is located at 993-C Johnson Ferry Road Suite 100.

Guests will have the opportunity to tour the Sleep Disorders Center, talk with Northside Hospital sleep experts and participate in free screenings for sleep apnea, lung function, cholesterol and blood pressure. No registration is necessary, and light refreshments will be served.

“Nearly everyone is going to suffer a sleep problem at some point in their lives,” said David Westerman, M.D., medical director, Northside Hospital Sleep Disorders Center. “We hope the community will join us at our open house to see the facility and learn about our services and how easy it is to get help for their sleep problems.”

Northside Hospital has cared for Atlanta’s sleep deprived for more than 25 years and was the first fully accredited sleep center in Georgia. In 2014, Northside moved its original Sleep Disorders Center on Peachtree Dunwoody Road to a completely renovated space in the medical offices directly across the street from the hospital, allowing Northside to grow from a six-bed facility to 10 beds and accommodate more patients.

All sleep rooms give the feeling of a five-star hotel, complete with new furniture and linens, flat-screen televisions with cable, DVD players, complimentary WiFi, sound machines and more. Each sleep room is equipped with a private bathroom and its own thermostat for individual climate control. Turn-down service with breakfast in bed is complimentary with all rooms.

Northside’s highly specialized team of sleep professionals utilizes the latest software and technology in diagnosing and treating sleep/wake disorders including sleep apnea, insomnia, narcolepsy and more. Portable in-home sleep studies, Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) set-ups and trouble shooting, with personalized instruction and fitting, also are available.
