headaches, epilepsy and sleep disorders at the Salida hospital.
“HRRMC is pleased to once again have Dr. Lesage as a part of its
medical team,” said HRRMC Vice President of Business Development

on staff, especially given this branch of medicine is rarely offered in
rural areas.”

National Military Medical Center, and as an assistant professor for the
Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, both located in
Bethesda, Maryland.
She directed a sleep program for the Veterans Affairs Maryland Health Care

at the University of Maryland Medical Center.
Dr. Lesage earned her medical degree from the University of Colorado Health
Sciences Center and completed her internship in internal medicine and
the first year of her residency in neurology at the University of Colorado.
She completed her residency in neurology at Northwestern University in
Chicago, where she was recognized as chief resident.
She followed her residency with a fellowship in sleep medicine at Wake
Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and then
