Department of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery
Division of Sleep Medicine and Surgery
Sleep Medicine and Surgery is a specialized branch within Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery (ENT) dedicated to the comprehensive evaluation and treatment of sleep disorders. Our program focuses on both medical and surgical management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and related sleep conditions, offering a fully customized treatment plan based on each patient’s anatomy, sleep patterns, and individual needs.
The division is led by Dr. Chihun Jim Han, MD, a fellowship-trained Sleep Medicine and Sleep Surgery specialist who treats both children and adults. Dr. Han’s unique dual training allows for a multidisciplinary, patient-centered approach to sleep care. We often collaborate with ENT surgeons, sleep medicine physicians, sleep dentists, and oral and maxillofacial surgeons to ensure each patient receives the most effective and personalized treatment.

What Conditions Do we Treat?
The most common conditions we treat fall under sleep-disordered breathing, including:
- Snoring
- Upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS)
- Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is characterized by repeated episodes of narrowing or collapse of the airway during sleep. These breathing disruptions can lower oxygen levels, fragment sleep, and lead to significant health issues over time.
