I do not write a lot of reviews online. I had a moderately severe case of apnea. I was tired throughout most of the day. I woke up feeling groggy and clouded. One of the main factors that pushed me to get diagnosed and seek treatment finally is the toll it took on work, personal life, friends, etc.. the issue that kept me from doing something sooner was using a C-Pap machine. They are loud and hard to keep clean. I knew that I would not wear it consistently. My current provider had mentioned an appliance that was very similar to a retainer. Not as intrusive and is way easier to use.
The whole setup at the clinic was painless, and the staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. They ensure you are comfortable using it and follow up a few weeks later to ensure everything is going well. I appreciated they took the initiative to do that. I also had the pleasure of talking to the Owner Dr.Willey, who is highly knowledgeable and genuinely cares about his patients. Companies these days sell you the product and send you on your way. Of course, it does take some getting used to and a few adjustments, which are easy to do.
The point of this review is that Apnea is a severe issue that far too many people leave undiagnosed; most people underestimate what this can do for you and the people around you. On top of the fact that it can impact your health to a severe degree later in life. Hopefully, more people will become aware and take a little time to get an appliance like this or see a sleep professional. Thank you, everyone, at Koala
