Your First Visit

What to expect at your consultation, and how to get ready.

Your first visit at A-Z Sleep & Airway Center in Glen Allen starts with a short questionnaire, then a conversation about your sleep, a digital scan and a head and neck exam with Dr. Ashlee Goodman-Tabari. When you're ready, we arrange an at-home sleep study, which is always the first step.

What to expect at your consultation

  1. 1

    Share Your Story

    Before you arrive, we send a short sleep questionnaire so we understand your concerns. At your visit we go over your symptoms, your sleep history, and what, if anything else, you’ve tried.

  2. 2

    Get Examined and Scanned

    We take a digital scan of your mouth and a 3D image so we can look closely at your bite and airway. Dr. Goodman-Tabari then does a head and neck exam and reviews everything with you on screen.

  3. 3

    Plan Your Next Step

    We explain the process, review your options, and, when you are ready, arrange your at-home sleep study. That study is always the first step toward a diagnosis and treatment.

Before you come in

Patient forms and screening

To make your first visit smooth, we ask you to complete all forms before you arrive. We will send them to you ahead of time.

New Patient Questionnaire

Tell us about your health history, sleep concerns, and symptoms so we can prepare for your visit.

Sleep Screening (STOP-BANG)

A quick questionnaire that helps show your risk of sleep apnea. It only takes a few minutes, and you can bring it to your visit.

Physician Referral Form

For physicians and dentists referring a patient to us for sleep and airway care.
