Highly recommend!!! Absolutely wonderful staff and office. Hidden gem in Frederick. I can not say enough great things about this practice. When I was sent from my primary to find a pulmonary specialist several places came up. There were no reviews, but it was close to my home and I decided to give them a try. I am so glad that I did. I struggle with asthma and flare ups something terrible. Prior to my appointment a lady contacted me and went over everything in so much detail and was so kind. My first appointment I felt terrible dealing with an asthma flare up, but was greeted by the kindest souls Lea and Angie. I could go on and on about them, they are just so amazing. They made me feel so welcomed and cared for. The specialist I saw I cannot remember his name but he was also very kind

Tremendous care provided Dr. Iqbal is knowledgeable courteous and a patient answering all your questions not rushing you. The office staff is well trained, listen carefully, they are so refreshing all of them. Frankly I practically dread going to the doctor or the dentist because I have had so many bad experiences with rude And competent office staff who sit and chitchat and act like they’re doing you a big favor waiting on you just because they have a tiny bit of power. So this Meritis’s office stands out as a stellar example of how medical care should operate

What to expect at a sleep study appointment
For an in-lab study, you arrive in the evening and sleep in a private room while sensors record breathing, oxygen, heart rhythm and body movement. 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 Meritus Pulmonary Consultants
What does Meritus Pulmonary Consultants do?
Meritus Pulmonary Consultants is a sleep medicine clinic in Frederick, MD 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 Meritus Pulmonary Consultants?
Many insurance plans require a referral or prior authorization before covering a sleep study. Requirements vary by insurer and by clinic, so contact Meritus Pulmonary Consultants directly using the phone number on this page and ask what your plan needs.
How much does a sleep study cost at Meritus Pulmonary Consultants?
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 Meritus Pulmonary Consultants?
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.
