Sleep
A proper conversation about what is actually happening at night, with a practitioner who has the time to listen and the training to know what to look for.
$99 first consultation. $59 repeats. Evenings and weekends.
You might recognise this
You lie there doing the sums. If you fall asleep now, that is five hours.
You have been told to cut the coffee and put your phone down, as though you had not thought of that.
You get off to sleep fine and you are wide awake at three.
You have started calling it normal, because it has been normal for two years.
You are getting through the day on autopilot and cannot remember the last time you woke up feeling like you had slept.
What a sleep consultation covers
01
What a normal night actually looks like: when you get to bed, how long it takes, what wakes you and what time you give up. We talk about what you have already tried and what happened.
02
We look at your schedule, including shift work, and at caffeine and alcohol honestly rather than politely. We ask about light and screens.
03
We ask whether pain wakes you, or whether your breathing does. We go through your mental health and stress load, because the two are hard to separate.
04
Every medicine and supplement you take, prescribed or not, is part of the picture.
05
Daytime is where poor sleep does its damage, so we ask what your days actually look like.
06
If what you describe points to obstructive sleep apnoea or anything else that needs proper investigation, we say so. Your nurse practitioner can request blood tests and imaging where they are clinically indicated. A sleep study is more specific, so where one is needed we will either coordinate it or refer you to your GP or a sleep specialist, whichever is the right path for you. What we will not do is work around a breathing problem instead of investigating it.
What we don’t do
We are not an emergency service.
We are not a sleep laboratory. We do not run studies ourselves.
We are not a replacement for your regular GP. We work alongside them.
We do not do overnight fixes. What your plan involves is a clinical decision, made with you in the consultation, not before it.
If you are falling asleep at the wheel, that is not a booking. That is a conversation to have today, with your GP or at an emergency department.
Already with another clinic
Already seeing someone and not getting anywhere? You can move, and your prescription comes with you.
The quiz
Twelve questions, about three minutes, and a written summary you can bring to any appointment. Not an assessment, and no result telling you what you need.
