After being diagnosed with sleep apnea, I wasn't given too many choices for a cure. Surgery was one, but I was told chances were 50/50 whether it would work. Tried the CPAP machine and could not do it. I was very discouraged until I saw a small ad in the paper for Dr. Shapira's services. At first, I was skeptical but upon trying the TAP device, I would recommend it to anybody. I am on my third device and know I could not function without it. I know this for a fact because my dog got a hold of my second device and chewed it up. I tried to go on without it but couldn't. Now I am on my third appliance. Thank you, Dr. Shapira.
