Please join us in welcoming Harneet Walia, M.D., FAASM, who will discuss the impact that quality sleep has on lifestyle. Dr. Walia is Director of Sleep Medicine and Continuous Improvement at Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute, where she specializes in sleep medicine.

Dr. Walia has led numerous clinical trials and real-world research projects on sleep-disordered breathing and health outcomes. She and her colleagues have demonstrated that improving sleep disorders can improve quality of life.
