Madison St. Medical Sleep Disorders Center

My wife kept telling me to see a doctor cause my snoring didn’t let her sleep. I called a couple places but nobody was helpful. Then i called Dr. Linares office, they gave me comfort over the phone so i came in. Best decision i made health wise. I sleep compterble and quiet. My wife can also sleep now.

I did a lot of research on sleep clinics and Madison St. Medical looked the most promising of all to me after many phone calls to other clinics asking a lot of questions. So I made the important decision to put my trust and money in their hands. From the initial phone call, first appointment, sleep study and all follow up visits, they deserve 10 stars for each and every visit!
The facilities are sterile clean, quite and comfortable. DR. Linares is fantastic. He spends a lot of time explaining everything you can expect from the first visit to the last. He listens and doesn’t rush you, (unlike most doctors). He’s compassionate and reassuring. Everything he told me what to expect, was spot on. You can absolutely put your trust and money in Madical ST. Medical!
Everyday now I wake up feeling like a completely new man!

I’ve been going to Dr. Linares for 2 years. The facility is very clean, if you have to stay the night for a sleep study you will feel like you are sleeping in a 5 star hotel. very comfortable bed and nice flat screen tv to watch until you fall asleep. The staff is very professional. Dr Linares is a courteous, caring Dr. He makes you feel right at home as if he has been caring for you for years. He is a throwback to the old school Dr. Who would care for your family your entire life. I have recommended Dr Linares to family and friends. If you need to go for a sleep study, you must make an appointment with Madison street medical.

So at the request of my physician, I went to Madison St. Medical Sleep Disorders Center for a referral and to speak to the Doctor about my restless and sometimes sleep apnea ridden nights (Sleep apnea is a common disorder in which you have one or more pauses in breathing or shallow breaths while you sleep. This results in poor sleep quality that makes you tired during the day. Sleep apnea is one of the leading causes of excessive daytime sleepiness).
Well my scheduled appointment for the study was actually a week away, but I totally got the dates mixed up and ended showing up a week ahead (last night actually). The technician at the front, who also was walking in when I did), was so pleasant and insisted that although my scheduled time was a week away, to please wait an extra hour in case someone did cancel or was a no show. She said that this one person has canceled or was a no show three times in the past and she would really like me not to waste my drive here.
So of course, I waited in this pleasantly decorated reception area and counted down the hour. Low and behold (big surprise) he never showed up so they accommodated me. This was a really good thing because I was there already and the fact that she accommodated me was awesome.
Now, the actual rooms you are given makes it seem as if you are in a nice 4 star hotel suite. I mean, its a nice moss green (very soothing) with your own bathroom (nicely decorated glass in green tile, shower, you know the works). The technicians came in and explained the WHOLE procedure to me, and I proceeded to go into la la land. Although of course I had wires everywhere and I was being monitored all night for different rhythms in my brain. I thought this place to be extremely professional and wow, the staff are just as nice as can be.
In the morning, they wake you up (5 AM.) and let you complete your study with an hour of getting ready, so of course I showered and left. I just think that this was a really nice experience and hopefully I will get answers as to why I am having restless nights. I did appreciate also that they share parking with Leona’s (next door) and for Oak Park this is a must since you will get a ticket if you park in the street. Kudos to the Medical Sleep Disorder Center.
