Post searching for a top doctor,C.H.O.P or Columbia children's 
Hi,
I have taken my son to a pulminary doctor, E.N.T, pediatric neurologist,5 sleep studies, narcelepsy study and a EEG. It has been shown that he has apnea from 3 of the studies. The last doctor that read his cpap titration study said the cpap eliminated his snoring and arousals but caused a significant number of central apneas. The Neurologist disagreed with the report and believes that the cpap is ok. He is using the cpap and waking up with it and is turning it off.
I need a true diagnosis and for someone to help my son with his sleeping problems. Has anyone used a doctor in P.A(C.H.O.P) or Columbia(NY CHildren's).
Any reccommendations?
Thank you for reading this

I know that Jodi Mindell works out of CHOP.  She is a behavioral sleep specialist who has put out widely known research and one of the better pediatric sleep books out there.  I dont know much about any of the MD's there, but that's just because I am ignorant.  As far as I know, the facility has a good reputation.  Here's an article about CHOPs sleep lab.
