Dreem Health is America's leading digital sleep clinic, focused on fixing the broken sleep care journey.

What We Do
At Dreem Health, we believe everyone deserves the sleep they need — not just for rest, but for overall health. Sleep disorders affect one third of the population and pose serious health risks like heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. For conditions like sleep apnea, up to 80% of cases go undiagnosed, leaving billions without the care they need. That’s where we come in.
Dreem Health is a digital sleep clinic. We offer accessible, at-home solutions that are simpler, more accessible, and covered by major insurance plans in the U.S. Using cutting-edge technology, a user-friendly platform, and a dedicated team of sleep specialists, we empower patients to receive accurate diagnoses and personalized treatments — all from the comfort of their homes.
Recently acquired by Sunrise, we’re expanding rapidly across the U.S. Join us in making sleep care simpler and more accessible to all.
