Meet Dr. Mauricio Reinoso
“The advancements don’t end with sleep apnea. Today we have many effective medications and therapies that work well for other sleep problems, such as insomnia. The key is using all the tools we have to make the right diagnosis and match the right treatment to the patient.”
MAURICIO REINOSO, MD, FACP, FCCP, FAASM – Medical Director
“In addition to sleep medicine, I also am board certified in pulmonary medicine. Since so many sleep disorders are related to respiratory issues, the two areas of expertise work well together.
“Over my career working with sleep issues, I have seen many advancements in the technology and variety of equipment available to sleep apnea sufferers. It’s no longer a one-sizefits- all solution – we have dozens of options to choose from, to make sure a patient gets what is right for them.
“I like the fact that when I work with a patient who has a problem such as sleep apnea, that once we have matched the patient with the right equipment, the results are immediate. My patients are often amazed at the difference that a good night’s sleep makes in their lives, and with the snoring removed from the picture, in the lives of their family members.
