sleep specialist

Dreams and rest doctor

A sleep specialist is a medical professional who diagnoses and treats disorders related to sleep—insomnia, sleep apnea, narcolepsy, restless leg syndrome, and similar conditions.

Most are physicians with additional training in sleep medicine, though the term sometimes extends to technicians who conduct sleep studies or researchers who study sleep patterns.
