Focus on Sleep Lab

How can I tell if my snoring is cause for concern?

Snoring by itself and snoring with sleep apnea can be hard to distinguish from each other. The presence of loud snoring, gasping, and daytime sleepiness are suggestive of sleep apnea, but the only way to be certain is with a sleep study.

Take the Sleep Quiz to find out if a sleep study can help you.

Medical problems of hypertension, congestive heart failure, and diabetes are often improved if underlying sleep apnea is treated. Sleep apnea is sometimes overlooked because underlying medical problems can have similar symptoms such as fatigue and poor sleep.

Talk to your ARC primary care doctor to find out more about snoring, sleep apnea, and the ARC Sleep Lab.

ARC Southwest Now Offers Urgent Care & After Hours Clinic!

The new ARC Southwest location now offers a Daytime Urgent Care Center and an After Hours Clinic. Both services have been enthusiastically welcomed by the community.

Drs. Leah Treadwell is our Urgent Care physician. The Daytime Urgent Care Center typically sees about 35 patients every day.

“Patients have been very appreciative of the increased access we provide. ARC Southwest is one of our busiest clinics and patients are happy they have more options closer to where they live,” Clinic Manager Cindy McBroom said of the feedback she’s getting from patients.

The new ARC After Hours Clinic has taken off more quickly than expected.

“We saw 45 patients the very first night, that is comparable to our other After Hours Clinics located on Far West Blvd. and in Round Rock,” said Justin Leonard, After Hours Clinic Manager.

With so many young families in South Austin and other growing communities like Buda and Kyle, we were prepared for a lot of demand for an After Hours Clinic at the new ARC Southwest.

ARC Southwest After Hours Clinic
Monday thru Friday 5-8pm
Saturday and Sunday 8am-12pm

Call (512) 346-6611 to make an appointment at any of the three ARC After Hours Clinics:

ARC Far West
ARC Round Rock
ARC Southwest

The ARC After Hours Clinics are for both established and non-established patients. Even out of town guests are welcome. It is always suggested that you make an appointment before arriving at an After Hours Clinic in order to reduce your wait time.

Request an appointment online or call (512) 346-6611 for an appointment.
