In addition to my expertise in primary care, I have completed training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia and have completed a Mini-Fellowship for Behavioral Sleep Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. So, why my interest in sleep? After four years of medical school and three years of residency, it was only afte ...
