I saw Dr. Stern several years ago after trying CPAP for my sleep apnea. The CPAP was very effective, but only when I used it.

During sleep, however, this was not under my control, and I’d often wake up in the morning with … more

Just wanted to thank Dr. Stern for his help and expertise. He is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to sleep appliances and prevention of snoring.

With Dr. Stern’s expertise, my wife sleeps well and I can go on golf trips with my buddies without listening to their complaints about my snoring every morning.

His staff are very friendly

Thanks!
