Many children experience symptoms of sleep apnea. These symptoms can include difficulty sleeping, dark circles under the eyes, fatigue, heavy breathing while asleep and many others. Left undiagnosed and untreated, sleep apnea in children can lead to long-term and quite serious health issues. Dr. Ronald C. Perkins is well aware of the importance of a proper diagnosis. He can diagnose sleep apnea in adults as well as children and provide the treatment needed to eliminate symptoms and guard against further health conditions. If your child is exhibiting any of these symptoms or you believe that he or she may be suffering from sleep apnea, Dr. Perkins can provide you with a proper diagnosis.

Upon diagnosing this condition, Dr. Perkins will help you to better understand the problem and what specific treatments are available.
