If like me, you seek a better understanding of the (1) etiology of one's sleep-apnea or (2) variety of treatment options, this is NOT the place to go. A 20 minute telemedicine intake consultation with an NP left me somewhat dazed and feeling (feeling mind you) as if even I, a well-informed consumer of medical services, had few choices. Next stop, a Langone system or Mt Sinai system sleep medicine practice that offers in-person appointments.

Very disappointing experience with BlueSleep. My first appointment was canceled at the last minute…read more When I rescheduled for the following week, I received multiple texts just an hour before the visit asking for additional information that had never been requested beforehand. During the appointment, the doctor was unhelpful and seemed to have their own agenda. I was referred to sleep counseling and told that someone would be reaching out to me--but I never received any follow-up communication. I scheduled another appointment a couple of weeks later to address these concerns, but that visit was also canceled just 15 minutes before the scheduled time. Overall, the experience felt disorganized and unprofessional. My time was not respected, and I would not recommend this service.

The experience to pick up my GetSnooze snore guard went as smooth as I could expect…read more I began by setting up an appointment to come into the GetSnooze office, which was easy due to a lot of available spots. When I got to the waiting room, I was handed an iPad to fill out my medical history. At this point, we began the coolest part of the process - having their medical professional perform a 3D scan of my jaws/teeth. I was able to watch this live as it happened and it was definitely a fascinating experience. This process only took about 10-15 mins and then I was done. I received my package shortly after that, which was packaged professionally and contained everything I needed - the mouth guard, bands, and instructions on how to use it. The guard fit my teeth perfectly and I could use it as a sort of retainer as well. After trying it, my girlfriend confirmed that I no longer kept her up or woke her up with my snoring. The product works exactly as expected and I couldn't be happier with the purchase!

I first came to Sleep Medicine Associates in 2009. I had been told for years that I snored but I…read moreignored it thinking it wasn't anything serious. However, after waking up mornings groggy with terrible headaches and nodding off constantly during the day, it became obvious something was wrong My first experience at SMA was very comforting. The doctor and an assistant met with me, explained the condition, what was going to be done to test for it and potential treatment options. Then I set up time to perform a "sleep study". Back then, you did this by staying in a room at the sleep center. Technicians hooked you up to equipment, talked you through the process and then you slept in what amounts to a mini-hotel room for the night. It is very disconcerting to sleep with a mask on your face at first with tons of equipment attached to you, but the technicians were super friendly and patient with me as I struggled through it. Nowadays, you are more likely to get a home kit due to insurance companies changing the way they cover sleep studies. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. The kit is easy to hook up and a technician patiently takes you through the process in the office before you take it home. There was also something comforting about doing the sleep study in my own bed rather than a medical office. The end result of all this is that I am using a CPAP machine to deal with my sleep apnea and it has helped tremendously. There is a dramatic difference in how my days go in terms of wakefulness and alertness. If you are battling sleep apnea, I highly recommend a visit to SMA.

It's just I'm gonna see if I can find another sleep study place so I don't have to use this place. They might not even like my attitude I've used their phone service and said hey I've called you two days in a row and you haven't called me back and now it's the weekend and there's gonna be a snowstorm .so I'm not gonna get a from you for a week and then after a week you're gonna tell me to wait another four or five months. This place isn't worth it. Nobody should let anybody jerk them around. I'm gonna find someone else if I don't hear from them immediately, I'm not going there. Neither should you.

Late September 2020. They do not answer their phone if you call in and ask about a sleep study…read more When they do answer, they say they haven't received orders via FAX.

Last night for fun, I left my phone on and after being on hold for an hour, I hung up. Their business must be booming from something, or the staff just doesn't care because they have to motivation to do anything for patients.

When it comes to quality medical care, I think it boils down to doctors, facilities, and…read moreadministration. My experience here was solid, since my doctor (Dr. B!) was great and the facilities were great (clean, test rooms etc.) but the latter nearly ruined it for me. I appreciated my doctor for being thorough with the follow up and flexible enough to do virtual appointments if necessary. I also enjoyed the fittings, accessories breakdown, and explanation over all the products offered. Above all, I appreciated how friendly the techs were during the entire process. The front desk is a bit of a different story. To suggest they could use a dose of professionalism is no exaggeration. They were cold with the salutations, rushed for no reason, and quick to remind me of their return policies. I also noticed they were rude to folks on the phone and a too abrasive for my tastes. I try to mitigate this by booking everything online and trying to keep our in person interactions as brief as possible. This is my recommenation for all future patients.

The technician met us and brought us into a room where the sleep study would take place, he met us walked me through what would happen and what he would be placing on my child. With every wire being placed on my child he explained what it was for. The quality of the care I thought was very good but I didn't realize that the sleep study would end at 6am. My child only got about 4 ok hours of sleep. There are a lot of forms that needed to be filled out so I suggest anyone to go there at least half an hour earlier to fill out the forms. Overall the center was VERY clean and the technicians were VERY kind.

I saw Dr. Shin for nasal obstruction, chronic rhinitis, and nasal septal deviation. I was having…read moreissues breathing, especially before bed, out of my nose and my nose ran all the time during the day. I couldn't exercise or eat without my nose running. I felt forced to breath out of my mouth even when walking down the street. I am thin and in good health- this was not my fault and nasal sprays or antihistamines were not working. I even gave up dairy for years and nothing changed. No other doctor ever gave me real options besides dinky nasal sprays. Dr. Shin suggested Neuromark, a medical treatment for chronic rhinitis, and he did some other non-invasive procedure but I can't remember the name. Anyway, after a month, I'm perfect. Getting the minor procedures done made my nose annoying for a few weeks but basically a normal person now at six weeks out. It's made a huge difference in my quality of life. He's smart- he didn't just put a bandaid on my problem after years of suffering, he fixed it.

(they work in healthcare) * "You are harassing my office!" I'm intentionally withholding personal details out of concern for my safety and privacy. But to be clear: I was upset but I was respectful, direct, and firm throughout the call. I had contacted Dr. Bahktiari to resolve a concern that could have easily been handled with calm and professional communication. Instead, he verbally assaulted me, yelled over me, and made personal attacks. I was barely able to speak. He even threatened to "expose" me, which felt like a form of blackmail and intimidation. I have never been spoke to like that in my entire life. I am genuinely scared of this man.
