Who said hospital??: You need to go to a doctor who will order up a sleep study (now they have home one's, ) so your sleep problems can be narrowed down and diagnosed properly. If you already did so and the hospital is necessary for removing extra tissue blocking the airway then i would consider a second opinion.

See dentist: The hospital can't stop your snoring. Snoring is a symptom of sleep apnea. You need to see a physician for a sleep study to determine if you have sleep apnea. A dentist trained in treating snoring and/or sleep apnea can then help you with an oral appliance. If you have sleep apnea, treatment will be determined by your doctor, dentist and you.
