Sleep Disorders Center and Pulmonary Testing Lab Update

Starting Monday, June 1, 2020 the Sleep Disorders Center at Glens Falls Hospital will be reopening on a limited basis offering home sleep testing only. The home sleep testing devices will be mailed directly to the patient and picked up at their door by FedEx at no charge to the patient.   GFH will be contacting the patients whose appointments were put on hold in March to reschedule their appointment.  Depending on the patient’s insurance, a consult with Pulmonary, ENT or Neurology may be required for a sleep study order. Additional in-lab testing will be available at a later date. If you have any questions, please call the Sleep Center directly at 518-926-2330.

 

Starting  Thursday, June 4, 2020, the Pulmonary Testing Lab at Glens Falls Hospital will be reopening  two days per week for routine/pre-op pulmonary function testing.  GFH will be contacting patients whose appointments were put on hold in March to reschedule their visit.  If you have any questions, please call the Pulmonary Testing Lab at 518-926-2800.  Additional appointment times will be available soon.
