Care Philosophy

Dr. Chimoskey is passionate about sleep medicine because improving a patient’s sleep can create a very positive effect in that person’s life. Good sleep has been shown to improve quality of life, health, a sense of wellness, performance in athletics, work productivity and other professional endeavors such as leadership, improved memory, knowledge acquisition and learning. The flipside is true as well, poor sleep and sleep deprivation increases the risk of medical problems like cancer, depression and heart disease. Poor sleep and sleep deprivation deteriorates mood and affect, decreases performance, reduces job satisfaction and increases accidents, absenteeism and other work problems.
