I'm sure the practice is fine. The appointment just wasn't helpful with my insomnia issue. I heard the same things I'd heard from my primary care doctor or read. Not sure if he gave the sleep study clinic the kind of information that would be covered by Medicare and United Healthcare. If he just told them insomnia my insurance won't cover it so I doubt if I will do it. I sent him a message asking him so I know what to do but haven't heard back.
