As of lately, I've gone to a bunch of medical tests, and after awhile, I was eventually recommended…read moreto come here. The staffs I've met so far had been professional and very helpful with my needs. After a few tastings, it turns out that I have a severe sleep apnea and is required to sleep with a CPAP machine, and recently after doing a sleep study at UBC hospital, this clinic had set up to a separate oxygen machine to the CPAP machine. At first, it was kind of alarming, but shortly after using it, the was actually really easy to use, seeing as the devices are very non evasive. The result so far is that I do actually feel a bit better physically, and my pulse/heart rate and blood pressure seems to be improving since I started using these machines back in the middle or end of April. I'm still going to be meeting with them for a while, but so far tho, I've been happy with the current results.

Muhammad has been incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. He makes you feel welcome and, most importantly, never judged.

They went above and beyond my expectations, and I'm extremely grateful for all their help. Would I recommend Coastal Sleep? Absolutely, 100%! If you're struggling with sleep apnea or need help getting started with CPAP therapy, I highly recommend reaching out to them.

So glad that I made the switch and very happy with the way I have been treated so far. Two big thumbs up!

Several years ago I was recommended by my dentist to visit Dr. Halstrom's sleep apnea treatment…read morefacility in Burnaby, near Vancouver (where he was located at the time). My dentist suggested that I might have sleep apnea as I was grinding my teeth at night. However, I'm a self-confessed, youthful fitness fanatic with 5% body fat and therefore don't fit the conventional profile of a person with sleep apnea i.e. a seriously overweight middle-aged man. I mentioned this to Dr. Halstrom when I first met with him. And he immediately agreed that I likely had sleep apnea. I thought his "instant diagnosis" (or assumption) was odd considering that we had only been talking for about a minute. What came next was even more odd. He immediately sat me down in a dentist's chair and took an imprint of my teeth so that he could order a customized $2,300 plastic mouth guard device to help with sleep apnea that he calls "The Silencer." Almost as an apparent after-thought, he sent me home with a device that attaches to one's finger while a person sleeps to measure his/her heart rate. This is supposed to determine if a person has sleep apnea. I returned the device the next day. And a few days later, surprise, surprise: I received word that I had been diagnosed with "borderline" sleep apnea. So Dr. Halstrom gleefully handed over my "Silencer" soon thereafter. And that was that -- or so it seemed. The problem was that the device didn't really seem to work. And when I removed it each morning, its horrible smell was enough to make me gag. I told Dr. Halstrom what the problem was. And he basically didn't seem to care. He had been paid and apparently that was all that mattered to him. He refused at the time to do anything about it. At that point, I went to see him and threatened to go to the media with my story. After some haggling, he eventually handed over a cheque for $1,250, which was all that he was prepared to refund me. He reasoned that the device cost him $800 to have manufactured. And he also said he still felt entitled to make a profit from the 90 minutes or so in total that I had spent in his office. So he kept the remaining approximately $250. In return, he insisted that I didn't go to the media. I honoured our agreement. However, a few weeks ago I had cause to have two more sleep apnea tests (the same kind as with Dr. Halstrom) that were conducted at a differently sleep apnea clinic. And lo and behold: The results came back negative. I do not have sleep apnea, not even the so-called "bordeline" kind that Dr. Halstrom suggested I had in order to sell me his over-priced gizmo. (By the way you, can buy similar devices online for as little as $20, albeit ones made from a cheaper kind of plastic). So the moral of this story/post is that you may want to get a second opinion when dealing with this doctor, who I believe is over-zealous in his efforts to convince potentially gullible patients(like me) that they need his expensive "Silencer." Caveat Emptor! By the way, my sleep issues seem to be getting resolved ever since I recently stopped eating wheat. And that's another story that I don't really need to get into.

Searched Yelp for private MRI in Vancouver and found 2 places. One of them with many reviews and only 2 stars (Argh....) and AIM Medical Imaging with only 2 reviews but both were excellent. I would like to thank Yelp and also the previous reviewers. This clinic is EXCELLENT. I called at 8,35AM and got my exam scheduled to the same day. Clinic is modern, clean and with very friendly staff. After the exam, I went to listen to the doctor who gave me the good news that the anterior crucial ligament (ACL) was not totally torn but....... (Why there is always a "but"???) ... my meniscus had been flipped and are not in the right place. So....I need surgery to be able to walk again. When we left the clinic I was given a pen drive with the images, so I can send for several doctors to listen who is going to perform the surgery. Few hours after the exam I received on my email box the medical report. AIM is also sending all images and report to my Family Doctor. I highly recommend this clinic! Now.....time to search for the best meniscus repair surgeon.....OMG.... Hoping to hit the slopes next year, I wish you all a nice day! :)
