Health First Sleep Center is proud of the high level of care and service provided. • We have a professional staff of physicians (including five physicians board certified in sleep medicine), a pediatric neurologist, and a pediatric pulmonologist. • Our technical staff includes seven registered polysomnographers and associates trained in critical and specialty care. • 10-20 percent of our patients are children. • Besides clinical and diagnostic services, we also offer public education, case management, extensive follow-up, and patient support. A physician who specializes in sleep disorders will thoroughly evaluate you and do a complete medical history, with an emphasis on sleep-related issues, and a physical examination. It's helpful if your spouse or a family member can be present during the interview to provide additional insight about your activities during sleep. If you need testing, we'll explain what test(s) we recommend and how they can help you. A physician who specializes in sleep medicine will interpret your tests, and a physician board certified in sleep medicine will also review the results. Typically the physician will follow up with you two weeks after testing to discuss the results and any recommendations. This may include another night in the Sleep Center to begin treatment, adjust your treatment, or check the progress of your treatment.

Please don't even think about visiting this center. Take your business to some other Sleeping Center. This is the worst customer service I have ever encountered in recent years. First, to enter the Palm Bay HF Sleeping center, you have to ring the doorbell. And they don't come right away. After that, you have to wait and I was wondering if I was at the right door. And it only takes the tech less than 10 minutes to explain the whole process. You don't see a doctor or any real health personnel. And their billing department was the worst since they don't care if the insurance Pre Authorization means anything. Tiffany, the billing supervisor, would tell you they only bill and whatever insurance claim they see is whatever they go by. When authorized service had payment discrepancy with the insurance payment, they just want to collect what is due them. They don't even pick up the phone and call the insurance company when I asked serious questions about the disconnect and discrepancy. And it's the tone that they made me feel like I don't know insurance that really aggregates me. I had to deal with the insurance playing the game, and the billing of Health first billing on both ends until I figured it out. The billing dept is no help at all to catch the insurance game/mistakes, a very incompetent team of people under Tiffany, or maybe they don't care as long as they get their money. Patient care is not in their dictionary at all either at the center or at the billing end. I have lousy patient care at the center and customer service at the billing is the worst. They don't know anything and not very professional, and expect you to figure out where the disconnect since it's not their job in the insurance/billing department.

  • Common disordersAlthough there are several types of sleep disorders, they generally fall into two main groups, parasomnias and dyssomnias.Parasomnias are abnormal behaviors that occur during sleep. Examples include: • Sleep walking (Somnambulism) • Sleep terrors • Head banging (Jactatio capitis nocturna) • Teeth grinding (Bruxism) Dyssomnias interrupt the normal sleep/wake cycle. Examples include: • Sleep apnea (obstructive, central or mixed) • Restless leg syndrome • Periodic limb movements of sleep • Insomnia • Narcolepsy Sleep ApneaThe most common disorder, and one that can seriously affect your health, is sleep apnea. Apnea is when you stop breathing for at least 10 seconds while you're asleep and can occur up to hundreds of times per night. Usually, you don't know it's happening, but often your spouse or a family member has observed you snoring and gasping -two common symptoms of apnea.During apneas, your body -especially your heart -is deprived of adequate oxygen. If it's caused by an obstruction, you struggle to breathe and eventually wake up, usually without recalling it, in order to reestablish breathing. Increased blood pressure and irregular heartbeats are often associated with apnea.
