Jordan Stern, MD

Don’t be intimidated by this Hollywood style doctor who has full color images of himself in his office – he is actually quite wonderful and knowledgable. I’ve had measurable success with ruling out some imagined apnea ailments. You just can’t be a passive patient here (or anywhere in life) or your progress will be nil. Sadly everytime I’ve called, the staff has no idea what they’ve told me last. «We left you a message» I checked my phone for missed calls and nope you didn’t. My solution? He either needs to hire more staff, start fresh with a staff that cares, or send everyone on a sabbatical to sip coconuts and regroup.

Incredibly disappointing experience. Once fitted with an oral appliance and making a few visits back to recheck it, I have never been contacted by this doctors office again for any type of follow-​up. This oral appliance could be all wrong for me at this time, but I’d never know it. Actually I stopped wearing it about two months ago and have never put it back in. I had been wearing it for 8 months, and like I said made a few repeat visits to that office, but never really felt anyone was professional enough or educated enough to work this through with me.
Expensive too. Wishy washy about actual fees. Doctor never sees you. I was seen twice by a dentist who acted as though she just graduated high school and then I was dumped onto a physicians assistant who as I learned, got on the job training from Dr. Stern himself. I did not know a doctor could train a PA to be a sleep specialists. Absurd.
Go elsewhere

Horrible! Do not go here !!
I never saw the «Dr «but spent over $ 1,000.00 & a mouth piece I can’t use because, as I told the «dentist» there, I have gag reflex. They proceeded to fit me for the mouth piece that I couldn’t use.
My insurance doesn’t pay for it but no one in the office explained my opinions.
The home test was also poorly explained, but the large fees were always understandable & explained.
The home test I took at blue sleep wasn’t accurate, but Dr Jordan Stern, who I still haven’t met, never knew because no one there was really interested.
I thought the $ 1,000. mouth piece was what I needed to be healthy.
I suffer from extreme obstructive slerp apnea, I found from another more professional Doctor!
This doctor, Dr. Lund at the SDI, actually took time & explained I needed a sleep study there to determine the severity of the slept apena.
At SDI I was diagnosed !
I now have a wonderful mask & machine.
My insurance covers it.
The mouth piece from blue sleep wouldn’t have helped me, even it I could have used it.
Save you time & money & DO NOT go to blue sleep.
I hope I can help save you time & money & you can get real help.

Dr Jordan Stern is an Otolaryngologist serving FIDI who specializes is sleep apnea. I’ve been going to Dr Stern and his nurse practitioner Michelle for the past two years. I was able to get appointment yesterday via there website.

Very simple and user friendly online booking system. Got an appointment quickly and off to Dr Stern I went.
Due to my hearing loss and chronic problems with my ears I felt very comfortable being in the hands of Blue Sleep. I’ve had nothing but exceptional care from every visit. I’ve also seen Nicole the audiologist a few times for my hearing tests and hearing aide adjustments. She is absolutely wonderful, extremely friendly and easy to talk to. She keeps me up to date on new hearing aide devices, which I will be returning for shortly.
On one of my most recent visits I noticed a sleep pod which I of course inquired about. I will surely take advance of these power naps. Who wouldn’t want a nap midday?

** Beware of recommendations which only put money into their office **
While Dr. Stern may be ok as an otolaryngologist, the office is run simply to make money and they do not put patient care at the forefront, nor at least try to give the appearance of doing so. Went in for a sinus infection and was pushed for a sleep study. I pushed for an in-​lab study, as my previous home study resulted in no apnea nor any issues. (they did not want this, I guess because they make no money off of it.) Lab study showed moderate apnea and the PA called me to inform me that they recommended treatment with a dental appliance. CPAP was not recommended and I was more than okay with investigating the dental appliance, provided they would consult with my current prosthodontist as I currently wear an expensive custom mouth guard.
The doctor nor their dentist would see me to discuss, unless my insurance company pre-​cleared the dental appliance. Despite this, I still went in following the pre-​approval and had a five minute consultation with the MOST UNPROFESSIONAL DENTIST, who seemed be just one day out of medical school and refused profusely to call my prosthodontist nor was willing to discuss my specific case with her to ensure the proposed dental appliance would not interfere with my treatment for TMJ and bruxism. It was the most unprofessional appointment with anyone, and yet they were sure to take another exam fee for this useless «consultation.» I guess this dentist was concerned that her lack of experience and unprofessionalism would be clearly exposed to another doctor, if she discussed my case. She should be ashamed to call herself a medical professional.
Subsequently, went to another otolaryngologist, who read my study report and discussed my case and indicated that the dental appliance would be counterproductive to my current bruxism and TMJ treatment, and in fact could result in making this worse. He was more than willing to speak to my prosthodontist and recommended a CPAP, despite his office not being able to make any money from it.
Dr. Stern should really assess the team he has working with him and their recommendations and approach to patient care, as the concept of his entire suite of services is really a great one.

I read about Dr. Stern, and couldn’t believe that someone with a 17-​page resume, hundreds of publications, thousands of surgeries under his belt, a best-​selling book, and so much experience would want to spend time on the annoying problem of a ‘clicking’ noise in my ear. Dr. Stern saw it under a microscope and told me it was a crumb of wax sitting right on my eardrum. I was terrified at the thought of removing it from such a delicate location, but Dr. Stern made it seem easy, skillfully removing it in seconds. I should add that his staff was very pleasant, and the space is just beautiful, with lots of gorgeous art, even a piano. I am so grateful and relieved. Dr. Stern helped me so much, and was most caring and professional. Thank you, Dr. Stern!

Dr. Stern is a phenomenal doctor — I would recommend him to any person who has problems with sleeping, snoring or sleep apnea. 5 Stars!

I went to Dr. Stern in 2008 for trouble breathing through my nose. Possible deviated septum, adenoid problems.
He found a 3 cm tumor on my thyroid doing a thorough, careful, routine check. I had cancer and had no idea.
I will always be grateful to Dr. Stern for his thorough care and attention. He took the time for a complete examination when he could have checked my nose and looked at my adenoids.
Can’t say it would have been caught otherwise. Great doctor.

So far so good, went for my first appointment to deal with Ear Nose and Throat issues. It may be sleep apnea but the Dr. Stern seems methodical. He wanted to treat and eliminate other issues before coming to that conclusion. My appointment didn’t start on time, maybe ten or fifteen minutes late, but the other attending staff were very informative and attentive. Gave me some water, let me know how much longer the doctor would be etc. Overall a very good experience. I’ll be back in another week so we’ll see if anything changes.

Got to agree with the previous reviewer, and I will also get a second opinion. Dr. Stern is not friendly in the least, nor does he seem to care. He seems to be actively avoiding dealing with the sleep apnea he says I have, by sending me to as many different (costly) specialists as he can.
When I first saw the man and dared to ask what he wanted to spray into my nose, I got compared to his nine year old daughter, then told I should trust him because people come from all over to see him. So, because I’ve made a mistake that so many before me have made, that’s ok?

I’ve had hoarseness for fifteen months (very disconcerting) — and my ENT doctor couldn’t find anything adverse about five months ago, when doing that lovely little procedure where a camera on wires is put through your nostril into your throat. She finally convinced me to carry it a step further and recommended a speech pathologist at BlueSleep. I went there yesterday and the same procedure was done — but they’re trained to look for other things and they use different equipment. Fortunately nothing adverse was found (which, frustratingly, leaves me back at square one), but I was given several voice exercises and I’ll return in two weeks. Meanwhile, the speech pathologist — Christie — was extremely pleasant and patient. Also, the reception staff were all very friendly (including on the phone).
BlueSleep’s primary concentration seems to be sleep disorders, but don’t let that dissuade you from visiting them for other related problems.
(Update on 3÷15÷12): Today I (briefly) met Dr. Stern, the ENT doctor who heads Blue Sleep. He’s very nice; low-​key and with a good sense of humor.
