COALDALE – An area hospital is expanding its sleep lab to serve patients in Schuylkill and Carbon counties.
St. Luke’s University Health Network announced the expansion of the Sleep Lab at St. Luke’s Miner’s Memorial Hospital in Coaldale this week.
Work on the expansion wrapped up Dec. 12, adding six additional testing rooms, six registered technicians, and three sleep medicine specialized providers.
“Sleep is essential for physical and mental health, yet millions struggle with disorders that impact daily life,” said Diana Laquinta, President of St. Luke’s Miners Campus. “Expanding the Sleep Lab reflects our commitment to improving access to specialized care for our community. We’re proud to bring these services closer to home for patients who need them most.”
Dr. David A. Cohen, SLUHN Section Chief of Sleep Medicine, added, “Sleep disorders are often overlooked, but they profoundly affect health and quality of life. Our team uses advanced technology and personalized treatment plans to help patients sleep better and live healthier. This expansion will allow us to diagnose and treat more patients, helping them achieve better sleep and better health.”
St. Luke’s Sleep Medicine is a part of St. Luke’s Neurosciences and provides comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for conditions such as insomnia, sleep apnea, narcolepsy, restless leg syndrome and snoring.
