Good sleep doctors in Berkeley or San Francisco?

I am looking to fire my current doctor and find a new one. Does anyone here happen to have an experience with any sleep doctor in San Francisco or Berkeley (or any neighborhood closeby)? I try to find out on my own via internet but don't seem to have any luck If you are not comfortable posting the doctor's name, please feel free to PM me. Thank you very much!

Have you considered Stanford's sleep medicine clinic? I don't have a specific doc recommendation and obviously don't know if your insurance would cover it, but I know several people who have been very happy with Stanford and it certainly has a good reputation. I'm up in Sac, but if I had the means I'd certainly head down there.

I actually used to see a doctor there but after I graduated from Stanford, my new insurance no longer covers the visit

Hi CardinalPalmz,

I don't have first hand knowledge about this person but someone I know who lives in SF said one of her doctors recommended this doctor:
