Dr. Suratwala is fascinated by the study of sleep and its impact on health. He feels sleep deprivation is a public health epidemic and poor sleep has many undesirable health consequences, including mood disorders, decreased attention span and academic difficulties. Various sleep disorders are common in children and adolescents and are associated with neurocognitive and psychosocial impairments. Therefore, timely identification and appropriate treatment of these sleep disorders is very important.
