The Division of Sleep Medicine is a joint program of
Eastern Virginia Medical School and Sentara Norfolk General Hospital. We have helped
patients with sleep problems since 1980. In 1986, we became the first Center in
Virginia, and the second one on the east coast, to be accredited by the
American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
We provide the full range of diagnostic services and treatment for sleep disorders. The Division of Sleep Medicine is staffed by medical
professionals who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of such
sleep disorders,
particularly snoring, sleep apnea,
insomnia, and
restless legs syndrome.
We also conduct research on normal sleepers and those
with sleep problems. We have tested most sleeping pills marketed today. In addition,
we conduct driving simulation research to evaluate sleepiness and highway safety.
