More than 70 million people in the U.S. currently suffer from sleep
disorders, including difficulty falling asleep, frequent nighttime awakenings,
and daytime fatigue and sleepiness.
Greater Washington Sleep Disorder Centers (GWSDC) joined forces with
SleepMed, the nation's largest sleep company, in 2007 to improve and
expand services in Maryland and Virginia. Since that time, we have opened
a number of new sites to bring sleep services closer to where you work
and live.
Additionally, GWSCD has expanded its service line to include diagnostic
testing for seizure disorders and epilepsy. To learn more about SleepMed
