Barrie Sleep Disorders Clinic

Poor communication. Took me over a year leaving messages that were not returned and my doctor requesting a study 3 times. The bed had a “hole” in the mattress. The worst sleepOf my life. I have a CPAP now, just wanted a new machine as mine is aging. I was promised a follow up call by the office manager, haven’t received one yet. The sleep tech was kind that hooked me up.I do not know the results, but I received a call from Medi gas about a machine, so I guess I passed? LOL. Would have been nice to hear from the clinic or doctor about it though.I can’t leave a zero star review.

Hands down the worst experience. I attended for a sleep study in April 2021 now in October 2022 the doctor contacts the ministry regarding my test results. Way to protect the public douche bag!!!!

NO COMMUNICATION BETWEEN STAFF & CLIENTS. FIND THERE PERSONALITY IS HORRIBLE. I WON'T COME BACK HERE. 2ND TEST.

I have just returned home from a night at this clinic" . The young technician seemed to know what she was doing but with the general condition of the facility it is hard to give it any credibility. The facility was dirty

I found the clinic to be ok, the staff was excellent. My 1concern was the washroom it was certainly not set up for handicap patrons. Shortly after I got a call for an appointment with Doc. Elia for 12 noon. I felt that he either had to p or he had a hot date. I am very uncomfortable with the CPAP that he sold me. I find that I get a mouthful of air and have to let it out. I have noticed that during the night I rip the machine off, I don’t realize that I am doing it. I would like to try a different CPAP but don’t know how to go about it or is this gonna cost me me again.

I attended a over night sleep study where I was deemed as an extreme case. I then waited and waited for a machine and by that time my prescription had expired. After the doctor refused to update my script i was referred to start the process all over again. I then followed up 3 times a week at this point in need of the machine, all i got was no refferral was here for you. Absolute joke of a doctor and staff who answer the phone.

Avoid this place if you can. I will say that the sleep-over was good, the staff were lovely and I felt well treated. However, since then I have not been at all pleased. I was given a list of questions to answer, but the room was so crowded that there was NO privacy and as the questions were very personal, I chose not to answer them. Then the Dr. (If he is one - did not even introduce himself!) was very abrupt. He did not explain any of the test, nor my results - just that I needed a machine. He gave me one option for a place to go. They wanted to charge me money just to walk into the place. No way! I have since heard that the Dr. gets a kick-back. Cannot prove that, but would explain a lot. Then when I had to reschedule my follow-up from my next test, I got the supreme runaround. I had to end up calling Toronto to change the booking. Say what? I made the appointment at the clinic so why are they unable to reschedule? And the woman was really snippy and disrespectful. I only put in one star as the original test was fine, but nothing since. And you have to put in a star or you cannot post. So the short answer is - beware before you go. If you have a choice, go somewhere else!

Absolutely the worst communication!!!This place is connected with York Region Sleep Disorder Clinic in Newmarket. Based on my Dr referral I left multiple voicemails and sent multiple emails, resulting in no replies.After weeks of waiting for a response, I have now asked my Dr to refer me to a different clinic. According to the majority of reviews, this seems to be the trademark of this clinic. I DO NOT recommend these people.

This is hands down the worst medical office and doctor I have ever dealt with. With the long wait for CPAP machines currently I find out my script was over a year and the machine seller told me it needed to be renewed, of course the Barrie sleep clinic refused forcing me to start the entire process again. My doctor re faxed over a referral and I called this office 3 times a week for 3 weeks and spoke to the same tool who told me no referral here for you.Absolute disgrace to deal with when I have a severe case

My first time at a sleep clinic, so I can’t compare to others. But the room was filthy and decrepit. A very small room with old linoleum tiling, queen size bed, old flat pillow, thin white sheets and a thin cheap comforter. Jammed beside the bed and wall was an old dingy pine bedside table with the intercom and other stuff. Paint was scuffed and chipped off the walls. The most visually disturbing thing was the 8” gapping hole in the wall, 18” from pillow height.While the technician at night who applied the electrodes was good and pleasant, the morning technician was not.I found it difficult to roll over at night without getting tangled in the wires. I could clearly hear others snoring in adjacent rooms and technicians conversing with others through the night.The intercom in my room didn’t work and therefore my electrodes were not calibrated - the technicians didn’t seem to mind.I’m the morning, I was given an old dirty bar cloth to clean the gobs of wax out of my hair, forehead, chin and legs - the cloth was an old, dirty bar cloth.
