Agoura Hills Sleep Medicine Specialist | SleepTM Secure Telemedicine Expands

Jan 20, 2023

A leading Southern Californian sleep clinic has expanded its telemedicine service, which offers web-based video consultations with its sleep specialists. The expanded service means easier appointment scheduling for sleep apnea patients who can speak face-to-face with a doctor from their computer, laptop, or mobile phone.

Thousand Oaks, United States - January 20, 2023 /PressCable/ —

Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center is expanding access to its SleepTM telemedicine service for patients who suffer from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The condition, where sleeping patients hold their breath or snore excessively, can lead to a dangerous drop in oxygen levels, increasing the risk of stroke or heart problems. However, early consultation with a certified sleep specialist in Agoura Hills can alleviate or reverse the symptoms.

The expanded telemedicine service comes when the average American is forced to wait anywhere from 18 to 32 days to get an appointment with a doctor. This number is even higher when a referral is required for a specialist, such as those who treat patients with sleep apnea.

A shortage of physicians in the US, combined with a sizable increase in population, has created a situation where nearly 1 in 5 Americans have not seen a doctor in the past five years. Those surveyed cited a lack of availability and scheduling conflicts among their reasons. The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center’s SleepTM service offers a solution to this problem with secure web-based video appointments.

The American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) SleepTM is a secure video portal that allows patients to receive sleep care from a distance without sacrificing the quality of care. Easy to schedule around work breaks or for those with mobility issues, the service provides real-time access to sleep specialists without the need to travel or endure long waits at the doctor’s office.

Specialized care is offered through face-to-face video interactions, and the integrated sleep diary feature provides advanced sleep tracking. In addition, patient data is secured through end-to-end encryption, so users can be confident that their records will remain private.

Founded by sleep medicine specialist Dr. Ronald A. Popper in 1984, The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center serves patients throughout Southern California, including Thousand Oaks, Los Angeles, Malibu, Westlake Village, and Camarillo. The Center has a reputation as a leader in specialist sleep apnea treatments.

A new user of the SleepTM service said: “Dr. Popper and his entire staff are extremely knowledgeable and experienced in their field, but I can’t always get away for my checkups. Now, speaking to my doctor in person from my computer makes things so convenient. I didn’t even have to take time off work for my last appointment!”

N. Korea showcases Hwasong-20 ICBM, strategic weapons at new defense museum

North Korea has showcased the Hwasong-20 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), submarine-launched ballistic missiles and other advanced weaponry at a newly opened defense museum, according to state media Tuesday. North Korea held an opening ceremony for the National Defense Revolution Museum on Sunday on the occasion of the 81st founding anniversary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK), which falls on Oct. 10, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA). According to photos published by state media, items on display included the Hwasong-20 ICBM capable of striking almost anywhere in the U.S. mainland and its mobile launcher. The solid-fuel Hwasong-20 was first unveiled during a military parade marking the party's 80th founding anniversary last year. The North's media previously described it as "the most powerful nuclear strategic weapon system." In an apparent bid to flex its muscles, North Korea exposed a diagram showing the Hwasong-20 ICBM tipped with multiple warheads and an explanation board describing the flight range of the new ICBM, encompassing the Middle East, Austra

S. Korea maintains demand for Ukraine's apology over NK POW disclosure

South Korea is continuing efforts to resolve its recent diplomatic dispute with Ukraine while maintaining its demand for an apology from Kyiv over its disclosure of the transfer of North Korean prisoners of war (POWs) to Seoul, the foreign ministry said Tuesday. "The government hopes that all pending issues between the two countries will be resolved amicably," ministry spokesperson Park Doo-soon told a press briefing. "To that end, we will continue consultations with the Ukrainian side and are currently maintaining communication." The statement came after Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said the matter had been "resolved" in an interview with RBC-Ukraine on Monday (local time). "Everything stemmed from different interpretations of the confidentiality requirements at various stages of the transfer of the prisoners of war. Ukraine fulfilled all its obligations," Sybiha was quoted as saying by RBC-Ukraine. The report said Seoul was continuing to escalate the situation by recalling its ambassador, despite Kyiv's view that the dispute had been resolved. Asked whether Seoul's demand fo

Cheong Wa Dae sets up task force to arrange golf outing with Trump

Cheong Wa Dae has formed a task force and begun preparations for a potential round of golf between President Lee Jae Myung and U.S. President Donald Trump. A Cheong Wa Dae official said Tuesday that the task force was established late last month, shortly after Lee returned from his trip to the U.S. and Mexico, to prepare for a possible golf outing between the two leaders. The move follows Trump's request during a Korea-U.S. summit to arrange a golf outing. Although no date has been set, there is speculation that the two leaders could play golf on the sidelines of the Group of 20 summit in Miami in December. The task force has reportedly already held an in-person meeting, during which members reviewed Trump's previous golf outings with other world leaders and discussed specific arrangements. The push to arrange a golf outing with Trump comes amid a separate controversy over Lee's own golfing activities. Politicians from the main opposition People Power Party, including Rep. Joo Jin-woo, accused Lee of indulging in "luxury golf" on the day the ceiling of a commercial building collapsed in
