We’re proud to announce that the Pensacola Lung Group Sleep Science Center has achieved a major milestone: 15 consecutive years of accreditation from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM)!

This national recognition reflects our continued commitment to high-quality, patient-centered care for individuals struggling with sleep disorders—from sleep apnea and chronic insomnia to restless legs syndrome and narcolepsy.

“AASM accreditation is the gold standard for sleep care,” says AASM President Dr. Anita V. Shelgikar. “It reflects a commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centered services that help people sleep better and live healthier lives.”

Why Sleep Health Matters

Sleep isn’t a luxury—it’s essential for your body and brain to function properly. Poor sleep can affect everything from your energy levels and mental health to your heart and immune system.

If you or a loved one struggles with:

  • Loud snoring or gasping at night
  • Trouble falling or staying asleep
  • Daytime fatigue, brain fog, or irritability
  • Strange leg sensations or twitching at night
    …you might be dealing with a treatable sleep disorder.
