Heather Wollangur RPSGT

Born and raised in Michigan I grew to appreciate and have a passion for the outdoors at a young age – hiking, fishing, and camping are a few of my favorites. Away from work, I enjoy spending time with my family, two retrievers.. and chickens of course!

Chris Ratzer RPSGT, RST

I attained my registration in sleep medicine in 1997 while working at All Saints hospital in Ft Worth, Texas. Since then, I have had the privilege of working for and assisting many hospital and free standing sleep lab facilities in building and improving their sleep programs. In 2007 I had the opportunity to join a sleep facility in the great state of Colorado where, for the next five years, I, my wife and young sons enjoyed the great outdoors. We spent nearly every weekend skiing, fishing, hiking, biking and camping. Naturally, when the opportunity came along to move to Alaska, it was not a hard choice for us to make as a family. So, in 2012 we arrived in Wasilla ready to explore the last frontier. It has been my privilege to help and serve the needs of Alaskans suffering from debilitating sleep disorders and participate in the promotion of the improvement of their health, by improving their sleep quality.
