Sleep service
The Sleep Service offers specialist diagnostic tests and treatment to people with a wide range of sleep disorders.
Over 2,000 patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are currently treated with positive airway pressure (CPAP) systems.
We provide clinics at both Hinton Community Centre, in Hereford, and at Hereford County Hospital.
The majority of our referrals are related to sleep disordered breathing, but even if you have symptoms of other sleep conditions, it is standard practice that you would have to be screened for sleep apnoea first before being considered for other tests or treatments.
We also support patients with non-respiratory sleep disorders.
We are able to provide telephone consultations and reviews where possible to avoid unnecessary hospital visits.
