Dr. Andy Berkowski is a sleep neurologist at ReLACS Health, a direct specialty care sleep medicine clinic dedicated to the treatment of complex sleep disorders including restless legs syndrome through telemedicine. He started ReLACS Health in the spring of 2022. A Michigan native, Dr. Berkowski obtained an undergraduate degree in religious studies from Stanford University before returning home for medical school at Wayne State University in Detroit. He did his transitional year internship at Henry Ford Hospital and residency in adult neurology at the Detroit Medical Center-Wayne State University. He returned to Stanford for one more year of warm weather and sunlight to complete a fellowship in sleep medicine. After training, he was on staff at two of the largest academic sleep centers in the country along with an affiliated VA hospital for nearly seven years before making the jump into direct care.
In addition to serving patients in Michigan, Ohio, and Florida as part of his clinic work with ReLACS Health, he is the vice chair of the Clinical Practice Guidelines Task Force for the treatment of restless legs syndrome with the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. He volunteers on the Scientific and Medical Advisory Board of the RLS Foundation, writing a column in their quarterly newsletter and presenting patient webinars through the Foundation.
He also has the privilege to be a busy homemaker two days a week and homeschool his youngest son on those days.
