INDIANAPOLIS-- Deborah Givan, M.D., clinical associate professor of Pediatrics at the IU School of Medicine and director of the Children's Apnea Program and Children's Sleep Disorders Center at Riley Hospital for Children, recently completed the certification program to become a member of the American Board of Sleep Medicine.

Dr. Givan is now one of ten pediatricians in the country and the only pediatrician in Indiana certified in sleep disorders medicine.
