ASBA Shines at NFLPA Sleep Apnea Screening in San Francisco

November 14, 2025

Congratulations to ASBA’s Diplomate, Toshi Heart who shined at the NFLPA screening for sleep apnea in San Francisco this past weekend! Toshi has always been a long time San Francisco 49ers fan ever since she moved to the Bay Area. Her extensive knowledge in epigenetics proved to be very useful at the NFLPA screening. The Legendary Stanford Football Great, Devin Cajuste, former San Francisco 49er tight end and the star of the TV program hard knocks when he was on the Cleveland Browns.  He showed Dr. Toshi Hart his rings and explained the different powers that they would channel through his body. He also was carrying a staff for Greater balance and proclaimed to be a real life Druid. John Gergen was doing the intake for the sleep apnea test and overheard all this talk about a true life Druid.  John couldn't believe his ears because he was in part raised by a true life Druid by the name of Bill Jarnigan.  Druid Bill, as he was finally known as, was also one of the finest Orthodontic Technicians in the country and one of the staples at Gergen's Orthodontic Lab.  John was extremely impressed with Toshi's knowledge of the Hertz Frequency that his rings were giving off and that the Open Loop Cricket also gives off a Hertz Frequency of 50!

It was wonderful to see these football legends talking with Dr. Hart about Epigenetic and about Energy & Hurtz Frequencies and all that great stuff!  Dr. Hart was selected for the screening because of her vast knowledge of sleep apnea and the different ways to treat this dangerous disease.  She is was appointed as the latest member of the team that works under the direction of Andre Collins at the NFLPA. Overall it was a very successful meeting! The Sleep Division of the screening treated over 30 former ball players.  David Gergen, The founder of Gergen’s Orthodontic Lab in Phoenix, AZ and the CEO of the American Sleep and Breathing Academy, was heard talking with Andre Collins about how many lives they have saved with this program over the past 15 years.  There is no official number, but as the gentlemen were saying they both feel it's very high.

The event came synergistically with of feeling of “Family.”  They were all so friendly and tight knit, yet you could really sense that they all cared about what they were doing.  It is ASBA’s mission to provide the best treatment for the former players.  It was a joy for me to take part in such a great event.  I've never seen professionals of these caliber caring so deeply about what they were doing and made me feel really great to be a part of this professionalism. The really neat thing that I liked about it was that this screening was all free for the retired NFL players & wives.  The NFLPA picked up the entire bill for the former players!  Andre Collins, who is a fantastic guy, said “Even the laser treatments are being covered as well!”What a fantastic event we experienced!  We are very excited for all of the upcoming events this next year.  We can only hope & work hard to make these future screening be ever so amazing as this past one.
