Get to know our medical director Jamila Battle, MD. Dr. Battle is a multi-licensed triple board-certified sleep medicine physician who provides sleep solutions across multiple states. If you have a sleep disorder that you’re ready to put to bed, Dr. Battle can help. 💥 She’s treated countless patients who struggle with major sleep problems such as hypersomnia, insomnia, restless legs, circadian rhythm, and breathing disorders, including sleep apnea. Although Dr. Battle didn’t set out to become a sleep expert when she enrolled in medical school, her indirect path to sleep medicine is what helps her take a more comprehensive approach to her patients’ sleep disorders and their overall health. She quickly came to realize that although diet and exercise were widely regarded as the two main pillars of optimal health, there was a missing third and fourth pillar that was just as essential — sleep/environment and meditation/connection. Dr. Battle decided she wanted to incorporate the other two pillars of health into her medical practice, so she completed advanced training and obtained additional board certifications in Sleep Medicine and Addiction.
