Stephen L. Matarese, DO, FCCP
“During my teen years I suffered from asthma, and this
was one of the main reasons I ended up pursuing a career in
respiratory and pulmonary medicine. I wanted to someday help
improve people’s health... and their quality of life.
Today, as a triple board-certified physician, I get to do
this every day, for every patient I see.”
Well-rounded training and experience.
“You can feel confident in knowing that I stay on top
of the latest developments in my field and have completed
extensive training in sleep medicine, pulmonary medicine and
internal medicine. For over 15 years I’ve taken care
of many patients who’ve suffered from respiratory illnesses,
breathing problems, sleep disorders and more.”
Rest... assured.
“I really enjoy being able to identify a patient’s
sleep disorder and determine the most effective solution for
their particular needs. I find it personally and professionally
rewarding to help people get a good night’s sleep because
it can improve their lives in ways they never thought possible.
In addition,
I was diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea about ten years
ago, so I can really relate to what my patients are going
through.”
Creating a sleep center unlike any other.
“When I decided to open Rhode Island Sleep Institute,
I wanted to make it unlike any other facility available. Our
private sleep study rooms offer myriad amenities that make
you feel like you’re at a luxury hotel, such as full-
and queen-sized beds, cable television, designer furniture
and more. Helping you feel comfortable and relaxed can make
it easier for you to recreate your at-home routine and sleeping
pattern, which means we’ll be able to get the most accurate
information possible from your study.”
Highly personalized care.
“My staff and I want your experience at Rhode Island
Sleep Institute to be a positive one. We will answer all of
your questions and explain your diagnostic exams and any proposed
treatment in simple, easy-to-understand language. And we will
always treat you with the friendly, personalized care you
want and deserve.” |
