Dr. Anita Bhola

OUR TEAM

REM Sleep operates under the direction of our Medical Sleep Director, Dr. Anita Bhola who is a fellowship trained and board certified physician specializing in sleep medicine. She is responsible for all consultations with patients and the interpretation of studies.

Our Sleep Lab Technical Coordinator Tami Oram and our team of sleep technicians have received extensive training in diagnostic procedures. Every effort is made to ensure the acquisition of accurate and artifact free data. Equally important, we believe in treating all our patients with compassion and personalized attention.

The two Administrative Directors, Dr. David Volpi and Dr. Lisa Liberatore are both board certified otolaryngologists with special training in surgery for sleep apnea and snoring. Additionally they have separate and established private otolaryngology (Ear Nose and Throat) practices off-site.
