Contact UsWhat Is Sleep Apnea Surgery?
At Canyon View Ear, Nose & Throat, some of our obstructive sleep apnea patients may not experience relief with a CPAP machine that delivers pressurized oxygen through a nasal mask to limit breathing interruptions during sleep. Dr. Robert D. Pearson, our board-certified head and neck surgeon who also specializes in sleep medicine, offers a surgical option to help remedy your disrupted sleep and low blood oxygen levels. An alternative to CPAP, Inspire® works inside the body while you sleep. The small device is placed during a same-day, outpatient surgical procedure.
Our medical team provides a thorough examination and diagnosis of your sleep apnea. Dr. Pearson will explain your options in more detail and recommend a customized treatment plan based on your needs. If you would like to learn more, please call our Cedar City, UT office, and set up an appointment today.
