SHILLONG: Dr Deelip Chatterjee, a USA-based pulmonary disease physician with over 20 years of experience in the field of sleep medicine has set up a state of the art sleep research facility in Guwahati.

Named ‘Med Solutions Sleep Center’, the facility aims to cater to the patients of the North East who suffer from sleep disorder.

Addressing a press conference here on Saturday, Dr Chatterjee, who has four American Board Certifications, said, “We spend one third of our life sleeping and that time improves, worsens or changes the disease more dramatically than two thirds of the day when we are awake. Yet medicine chooses to ignore this time.”

He rued that standard medical educational curriculum does not even include this most important time of the day.

“Most patient questionnaires and pre-operative intakes do not even include a question on sleep,” he lamented.

Stating that if a patient with heart disease, depression, attention deficit disorder, hypertension or Alzheimer’s disease was to look up the disease on the internet, Dr Chaterjee said he/she would find that good sleep would vastly improve their disease.

“Sleep is an evolutionary cure for most diseases. It heads the list of all natural cures. It is more effective than most medications. Medications control the manifestations of disease. Sleep cures the disease,” he stated.
