A Sleep Specialist in Utah Who Looks at More Than Your Sleep Study.

Most sleep clinics stop at a CPAP recommendation. That is often necessary — and rarely sufficient. Dr. Thomas evaluates the full stack: breathing, architecture, nervous-system regulation, hormones, and metabolism. That is how you go from "treated" to actually sleeping.

What we look at beyond a standard sleep study

A polysomnogram is a good start. It is not the whole picture.

Cortisol rhythm — the #1 driver of fragmented sleep in adults 30–55
Thyroid function and its effect on deep-sleep drive
Estradiol, progesterone, and perimenopausal patterns in women
Blood sugar stability overnight (CGM data when relevant)
Nervous-system tone — HRV, sympathetic dominance, trauma load

Common presentations we solve

Patients who wake at 2–4 a.m. wired, patients who sleep 8 hours and feel tired, patients with deep sleep under 10% on their tracker, patients who snore and are on CPAP but still feel unrested, and perimenopausal patients whose sleep has changed year over year.

Local authority

Frequently asked

What patients usually ask first.

Do I need a sleep study before coming to you?+

Not always. If we suspect obstructive sleep apnea, we will order one. For most adults with fragmented sleep, hormone and cortisol data move the needle faster.
