Pediatric Care

Why your pediatrician may refer you to us:

• Large or recurrently infected tonsils or adenoids
• Chronic or recurrent ear infections
• Chronic or recurrent sinus infections
• Hearing loss and/or speech delay
• Loud snoring or chronic mouth-breathing
• Suspected sleep-related breathing disorder or obstructive sleep apnea
• Severe nasal allergies
• Neck masses

These are some of the common Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB) characteristics that one should be aware of in kids. These are NOT normal and are potentially curative with a straight-forward surgery.

• Snoring
• Restless sleep
• Mouth breathing
• Waking frequently during the night
• Bed-wetting
• Sleep-walking
• Morning tiredness
• Daytime fatigue
• Nighttime coughing
• Behavior disorders (including ADHD symptoms)

90% of children with SDB have school-related issues! These can include learning disabilities, poor concentration, or even behavior problems.
