★★★★★
My family doctor, Dr. Wendy Starnes, is truly kind, considerate, responsible, and an excellent physician. When my test results showed that I had prediabetes, she recommended that I have regular checkups and monitor it carefully. I can genuinely feel her sincere concern and care for my health. I had also been experiencing significant pain in my arm for about three weeks. She listened carefully to my concerns and prescribed medication that has relieved my pain tremendously. I truly appreciate the care, attention, and responsibility she has shown toward me. I am very grateful to have such a caring and dedicated family doctor. I sincerely appreciate her from the bottom of my heart.

I had been having issues with a salivary grand Dr Skoog recommended surgery and I accepted the challenge. It has been less than a month and I feel great. He did a great job. His staff was wonderful when I was in for my post-op appointment. I recommend Dr Skoog.

Professional therapists who explained each of my exercises and how they would help my balance issue. Friendly. Would definitely use them again, if needed.

I can't say enough nice things about Dr. Skoog. I had to have a total thyroid removal and he was amazing. From beginning to end his bedside manner was top notch. I even got a call the day after I went home from him personally. Every time I talked to him he seemed concerned, looked you right into the eyes, and discussed your options with you. He didn't bat an eye when he told me I'm more than welcome to seek a second option.

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.

Frequently asked questions about East Texas Ear, Nose, & Throat
What does East Texas Ear, Nose, & Throat do?
East Texas Ear, Nose, & Throat is a sleep medicine clinic in Longview, TX 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 East Texas Ear, Nose, & Throat?
Many insurance plans require a referral or prior authorization before covering a sleep study. Requirements vary by insurer and by clinic, so contact East Texas Ear, Nose, & Throat directly using the phone number on this page and ask what your plan needs.
How much does a sleep study cost at East Texas Ear, Nose, & Throat?
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 East Texas Ear, Nose, & Throat?
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.
