Providing every patient with a tailored path to better sleep, better health, and better quality of life.

Our Mission

For many patients with obstructive sleep apnea, finding an effective solution can be challenging. At Penn Sleep Surgery, our mission is to transform care through cutting-edge research, surgical innovation, and deeply personalized treatment. Our team is advancing the science of sleep with a commitment to improving lives— particularly for those who struggle with or cannot tolerate traditional therapies, like CPAP.

Personalized Patient Care

Delivering data-driven, patient-centered care while expanding access to innovative treatment options for CPAP-intolerant patients and those with complex airway obstruction.

Innovative Surgical Care

Offering the full spectrum of sleep surgery, from nasal and soft tissue procedures to hypoglossal nerve stimulation, skeletal surgery, and advanced solutions for patients with complete concentric collapse (CCC).

Academic & Research Excellence

Leading national research in personalized, mechanism-based airway therapies while training the next generation of sleep surgeons.

We give patients hope.
