Meet Our Physicians
Not all sleep centers staff Registered Polysomnographic Technologists, and that can make a big difference in the quality of your sleep study.
The physicians at Georgia Regents Sleep Center are supported by the area’s largest team of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists (RPSGT) in the Augusta, Georgia, area. These skilled medical professionals have met rigorous requirements and passed extensive examinations by the Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists. They have the skills and experience needed to perform sleep studies that ensure more accurate readings and better outcomes. A board certified sleep medicine physician will then interpret the studies, make a diagnosis and develop a plan of care.
Georgia Regents Sleep Center in Augusta, Ga., offers multidisciplinary sleep medicine care by a team of physicians with a breadth and depth of expertise unmatched in the area. In addition to three board certified sleep specialists, the team includes:
