Making a positive difference in your life… and your health

Kevin Asp, CRT, RPSGT – President

“I chose to become a sleep medicine specialist in order to make a difference in people’s lives. Sleep disorders can be complex, and providing quality care means making an intellectual commitment and using diverse skills and knowledge. More importantly, sleep problems can have very dramatic impact on the health and the lives of those who suffer with them. For me, it’s a very rewarding profession.”

A personal commitment to the profession

“I chose to pursue sleep medicine because it gave me an opportunity to provide real and lasting help to people whose lives are turned upside down by sleep problems. Today, I focus all my experience and know-how on making a difference for these people, and I want to instill in them the trust and confidence that they’re getting committed care that has a real scientific basis. My involvement in professional societies gives me the opportunity to share valuable information with other sleep specialists around the country, allowing me to provide better care to my patients.”

A personal commitment to the profession
