The Sleep Disorders Center of Georgia is a virtual 26-bed freestanding sleep center that has been in operation since 1990. Founded by one of the early pioneers in sleep medicine, James Wellman, MD, ABSM, and his longtime associate, D. Alan Lankford, PhD, ABSM, it is one of the region's largest sleep centers and was the first freestanding laboratory in Georgia to be accredited by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
The Sleep Disorders Center of Georgia's model for success is based on three basic components: patient care, research, and education. Building the practice in each of these areas has resulted in a comprehensive program that is unique to other sleep labs. In 2005, the center was awarded Frost and Sullivan's Comprehensive Service Provider and Innovator Award, in recognition of the full array of patient care that the center offers as well as its high rate of patient satisfaction.
