Author Oscar Ortega, MD, Medical Director · Primary Care Provider

Miami patients reach our Doral clinic in about 15 minutes via the Dolphin Expressway or NW 25th Street. We are an in-network, bilingual option for patients in Brickell, Downtown, Little Havana, and across the city who want physician-led primary, weight-loss, and specialty care without long wait times. Insomnia is difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, or early-morning awakening with inability to return to sleep, occurring at least 3 nights per week for at least 3 months — that is chronic insomnia under DSM-5 and ICSD-3 criteria. It is distinct from sleep apnea and must be distinguished from it. About 30-35% of US adults have brief insomnia symptoms each year, and roughly 10% meet criteria for chronic insomnia disorder (AASM 2024). Assessment considers anxiety, shift work, sleep apnea, caffeine and chronic pain. CBT-I is the first-line treatment recommended by the AASM; confirm outside qualified access, availability, cost and the responsible provider rather than assume local delivery. Patients from neighborhoods like Brickell, Downtown Miami, Little Havana reach our Doral clinic in about 15 minutes — close to landmarks including Brickell City Centre and Bayside Marketplace.
