Went to this office for treatment for migraines. I did not have a good experience with the office staff and nurses here. I need prior authorization for a treatment and despite being labeled as urgent it took weeks to get information on this prior auth. The office staff is not in communication with each other and it takes many days to get in touch with someone. After several weeks I was finally told the prior authorization was declined and nobody relayed information to my Dr. so I went months with no further treatment. This lack of care coordination is something I haven’t experienced at any other Duke clinic so this is an office specific problem not a Duke problem.

Very disappointed in the care recieved from this office. I want to preface this review by stating that I was assigned a doctor when I called the scheduling line for an appointment, I did not get to choose my provider. Dr. Hartsell does not respond to patient messages through the MyChart portal. I've only been a patient of his since January and already this has happened on three separate occasions. After the second time, he actually addressed his lack of follow through at my appointment, apologized, and promised he would do better next time. I took him at his word. He ended up wanting to consult a colleague for advice on my prescription/condition and how it might impact my fertility and promised he would reach out to me on the portal within a week of my appointment. 7.5 weeks later, still n

Another horrible experience, I waited 6 months for my appointment for them to cancel it with no explanation. I was hung up on three times for asking to speak to a supervisor. They were only able to reschedule my appointment in another 8 Months. I will have waited 14 months to even see a doctor.

I can not attest to the negative experiences by others and also do not know who handled my original appt, but I had a wonderful experience visiting this office. Dr. Lee was amazing and all three of the front desk associates collaborated together to get me scheduled for two follow up appts and an MRI, they went above and beyond while I waited and accomplished it all in a matter of minutes. Great office, great teamwork, great care.

What to expect at a sleep study appointment

For a home sleep test, the clinic gives you a portable kit you use in your own bed. Neither test is painful. Results are usually compiled into a physician report within one to two weeks, and the clinic then discusses whether treatment — such as CPAP therapy or an oral appliance — is needed.
Preparation basics: avoid caffeine in the afternoon, skip lotions and hair products, bring comfortable sleepwear, and take your regular medications unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Frequently asked questions about Duke Neurology South Durham
What does Duke Neurology South Durham do?
Duke Neurology South Durham is a sleep medicine clinic in Durham, NC that evaluates and treats sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea, chronic insomnia, restless legs syndrome and narcolepsy. Evaluation usually involves a sleep study, and treatment may include CPAP therapy, an oral appliance, or behavioral therapy depending on the diagnosis.
Do I need a referral to book a sleep study at Duke Neurology South Durham?
Many insurance plans require a referral or prior authorization before covering a sleep study. Requirements vary by insurer and by clinic, so contact Duke Neurology South Durham directly using the phone number on this page and ask what your plan needs.
How much does a sleep study cost at Duke Neurology South Durham?
Sleep study costs vary widely with the type of test, your insurance plan and your deductible. Home sleep tests generally cost less than in-lab studies. Ask the clinic for an itemized estimate and check with your insurer about in-network rates before booking.
Does insurance cover sleep studies and CPAP treatment?
Most US insurers, including Medicare, cover sleep studies and CPAP therapy when they are medically necessary and properly documented. Coverage details — deductibles, co-pays and supply replacement schedules — differ by plan, so verify with your insurer and the clinic.
How long does it take to get sleep study results?
Typically one to two weeks. A sleep physician reviews the recorded data and writes a report, after which the clinic discusses the findings and any recommended treatment with you.
Can I do the sleep study at home?
Possibly. Home sleep apnea tests suit many adults with a high likelihood of obstructive sleep apnea and no major heart or lung conditions. If your symptoms are complex or the home test is negative despite strong symptoms, an in-lab study is usually the next step. The clinic can determine which option fits you.
What should I bring to my appointment at Duke Neurology South Durham?
Comfortable sleepwear, your photo ID and insurance card, a list of current medications, and your own pillow if that helps you sleep. Avoid caffeine after midday and skip lotions or hair products, because sensors attach better to clean skin.
