If you have questions about onboarding, records, or logistics, you can schedule a short conversation with our administrative team. We use a Zoom-supported receptionist system designed to help you succeed with the process. This team can:

. Answer onboarding and portal question

. Help you understand what documents are needed

. Route questions appropriately

They are here to support you, not upsell you, and not rush you.

Some patients prefer to meet briefly before committing to full care. If that’s you, you can request a short telehealth conversation with Dr. Steve. This is a low-pressure conversation where:

. We make sure expectations are aligned

. You can ask questions directly

. We decide together what makes sense next

There is no obligation. This step exists to build comfort and clarity.

If you choose to move forward, you’ll create your Seattle Sleep Profile. This includes:

. Uploading prior sleep studies and encounter notes

. Entering contact information for providers you’ve seen in the past two years

. Sharing your symptoms, history, and goals

This step is essential. Only once all relevant information is in place

will you be invited to schedule a full in-person visit. This ensures your appointment time is spent on thinking and planning, not collecting information you’ve already shared elsewhere.

Your first visit is not rushed and not generic. Because your history has already been reviewed, this appointment is focused on:

. Evaluating airway and breathing patterns

. Assessing nasal function and structural contributors

. Screening for relevant cardiovascular or neurologic risk signals

. Connecting findings to how you feel and function day to day

This visit is built on your data, your story, and thoughtful clinical evaluation.
