New York Methodist Hospital Opens New Center for Sleep Disorders

Need a good night’s rest?

If you have trouble sleeping, you can head on over to New York Methodist Hospital’s new Center for Sleep Disorders. 

On Wed., April 3, NYM held a ribbon cutting for the grand opening of the new center.

According to NYM, the new facility is projected to accommodate up to 2,000 studies a year, compared to 1,200 in the old center.  

The new center opened after 18 months of dedicated work to build a “cutting-edge laboratory with advanced technology” where patients can stay overnight and feel, “as much like a good night’s sleep at home as possible,” a release from NYM said.

“Over 40 million Americans have a chronic sleep disorder, and each day, we hear more about the impact it has on both our personal health and our society in general,” said Mark J. Mundy, president and CEO of New York Methodist Hospital, at the ceremony. “With the help of NYM’s team of sleep experts, this marvelous facility will help us do our part to make a dent in those numbers, and help our patients live longer, happier lives.”
