No doctor referral needed in order to book this service, although health insurers may require a referral in order for your treatment to be covered.
For patients experiencing sleep issues, the first step is to receive a consultation and set of diagnostic tests. Your appointment will comprise:
- Diagnostic blood tests
- Study with SUNRISE device which is an overnight sleep study to be taken in the comfort of your own home for 1 night
- Your results are analysed within 48 hours, and your overnight sleep report together with other investigations are discussed at a detailed medical consultation with a respiratory sleep doctor. A full history and examination (preferably with an accompanying partner) will also be taken
- Please note that further diagnostics may be required, such as a more detailed NOX T3 study within our Lung Health centre or a Polysomnography within our Neurology centre
Following these tests, treatment with a device and/or other management strategies are discussed and arranged. This may involve referral to another specialty.
We see patients at all stages of their sleep journey, from initial self-referral with no prior medical tests through to GP referrals for specific conditions after diagnosis. We also see insured patients, but please make sure to check with your provider if your treatment is covered.
Price for Sleep Diagnostics Pathway: from £550
Alternatively, if you would prefer to receive just a consultation with one of our respiratory consultants we offer this for £300. This is also available to discuss prior test results or diagnoses.
