Description

Emma is joined by Dr Joi Freemont, a dentist who treats patients with sleep apnea in her practice but also suffers with sleep apnea herself.  Joi describes the shock of her father's death from sleep apnea and how that experience opened her eyes to the condition.  Whilst attending a professional training on oral appliances and taking a sleep study, Dr Freemont discovered that she also suffered with sleep apnea.  Knowing that the CPAP would not be a good fit for her, Joi got an oral appliance and immediately felt better with increased energy.  Dr Freemont is on a mission to help spread awareness of the need to be tested for sleep apnea but also the availability of alternative treatments if CPAP doesn't work for a particular patient.
