Services:
The Houston Sleep Center is a division of The Institute of Sleep Medicine, Inc. The sleep specialists at The Houston Sleep Center diagnose and treat people who have problems ranging from inability to fall asleep at night to those who cannot stay awake during the day, and all sleep disorders in between. The goals of the sleep experts at The Houston Sleep Center are two-fold: to improve the quality of sleep and to improve the quality of waking life.

Some sleep problems resolve themselves. Others, however, persist without an obvious reason. When difficulty with sleep at night or excessive sleepiness during the day begins to interfere with daytime functioning, an evaluation may be indicated. The staff of The Houston Sleep Center evaluates people of all ages.

Complete our Sleep Problems Questionnaire to determine if you might have a sleep disorder. For further information, contact us via e-mail or call 713-827-8896.

Facilities:
The main sleep center consists of six bedrooms and our Katy location consists of four bedrooms, all centrally monitored. The bedrooms are designed for maximum patient comfort and include cable TV to lend a sense of "home" to the environment. Our two Sleep Centers are accredited by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
