Obstructive Sleep Apnea assessment and treatment
AI-powered, insurance-covered solutions designed to complement your holistic health journey
What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
A common yet serious sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts
Strongly linked to all forms of cardio-metabolic disease including diabetes, heart health, and obesity
Can lead to fatigue, heart disease, and worsening blood sugar control if left untreated
No overnight sleep
study required: a modern alternative to PSG
Diagnosing Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) has traditionally relied on polysomnography (PSG), a cumbersome overnight test conducted in a sleep lab. Often not covered by insurance, PSG can be expensive, time-consuming, and inconvenient for patients.
We have revolutionised the process with AI-powered robotic ultrasound, offering a faster, non-invasive, and insurance-friendly alternative.
Our AI-powered solution
Utilizes cutting-edge robotic ultrasound for precise diagnosis
Provides fast and accurate results without the need for overnight testing
Non-invasive and comfortable for patients
Diagnosis and other cardiac tests covered by insurance (regular PSG costs thousands and is not covered by insurance usually)
How does it work?
All metabolic patients take an OSA screening questionnaire to assess the level of OSA risk
AI-powered diagnosis: Moderate and high-risk patients undergo robotic ultrasound diagnosis. We are one of the first clinics globally to introduce this
If you are diagnosed with OSA, you will meet with our cardiologist who will assess your heart health via ECG, echocardiograms and enzyme screening (if not done so) to rule out certain cardiac conditions
We assess your numbers every quarter and monitor your continued progress
Why address OSA with metabolic?
Strong correlation between sleep apnea, obesity, diabetes, and heart health-we manage them all in one centre
Sleep apnea treatment improves blood sugar control and weight management outcomes. We can even retest OSA if required without sleep studies using our technology.
Metabolic is the only facility that publishes its results on the use of GLPs like Mounjaro (which has recently gotten FDA approval for OSA treatment) regionally. Our protocols are unlike other facilities which simply prescribe medication on a quarterly basis.
Part of a holistic care model to address comorbidities:
- Diabetes management
- Cardiac health
- Weight optimization
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and obesity share a bidirectional relationship, where excess fat deposits around the neck and airway increase the risk of airway collapse during sleep, while poor sleep quality exacerbates hormonal imbalances that drive weight gain.
- Treating OSA boosts energy and metabolism
- Improved sleep accelerates weight loss
Studies show that 70% of individuals with OSA are overweight*, highlighting how disrupted sleep can impair metabolic function, reduce insulin sensitivity, and promote fat storage, creating a vicious cycle of weight gain and worsening sleep apnea.

FAQ
How much does a sleep study cost in Dubai for people with diabetes or obesity?
Traditional sleep studies in Dubai can be costly and time-consuming, especially for individuals managing diabetes or obesity. At metabolic.health, we use AI-driven sleep apnea testing, providing a full diagnosis in just 10 minutes—without the need for an overnight stay.
Can sleep apnea make diabetes worse?
Yes! Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is common in people with type 2 diabetes, leading to poor blood sugar control, insulin resistance, and higher risks of complications. Our sleep doctors in Dubai help detect and manage sleep apnea in diabetics for better metabolic health.
How is sleep apnea linked to obesity?
Excess weight can cause airway blockages, making obesity one of the biggest risk factors for sleep apnea. Treating sleep apnea in obese individuals can improve sleep quality, metabolic health, and even support weight loss efforts.
What is the best sleep apnea treatment in Dubai for obese individuals?
At metabolic.health, we combine AI-driven sleep apnea diagnosis with lifestyle interventions and weight loss support. Our obesity-focused sleep apnea treatment in Dubai helps improve sleep and overall metabolic health.
Can poor sleep lead to weight gain and insulin resistance?
Yes! Untreated sleep apnea disrupts hormones like leptin and ghrelin, increasing hunger and promoting weight gain. It also worsens insulin resistance, making diabetes harder to manage. Our AI-driven diagnostics ensure faster intervention.
How can people with diabetes or obesity book a sleep test in Dubai?
If you have diabetes, obesity, or metabolic syndrome, you can book an AI-powered sleep apnea test at metabolic.health—no referrals needed. Get a full assessment in just 10 minutes, without an overnight stay.
What happens at a sleep clinic in Dubai for diabetics and obese individuals?
Traditional sleep clinics in Dubai require overnight monitoring. At metabolic.health, we use advanced robotic ultrasound and AI to detect sleep apnea faster, without disrupting your routine.
Does treating sleep apnea help with weight loss?
Yes! Studies show that effective sleep apnea treatment can reduce cravings, improve energy levels, and support sustainable weight loss. Our experts at metabolic.health integrate sleep apnea management into obesity and diabetes care.
How much does sleep apnea treatment cost in Dubai for diabetics and obese patients?
The cost of sleep apnea treatment in Dubai depends on the method. Our AI-powered diagnostics provide a cost-effective and rapid alternative to traditional sleep studies, making it accessible for individuals with diabetes and obesity.
