Our electrophysiologists use the most advanced technology and procedures available to detect, diagnose and treat arrhythmias. Electrophysiology is the cardiology specialty that diagnoses and treats problems related to the heart’s electrical system or heart rhythm malfunctions.
Typically, arrhythmias are treated and controlled by medication, implanted heart devices and/or surgical procedures.
Interventional cardiologists are Fellowship-trained, providing a comprehensive array of interventional treatments for a variety of cardiovascular conditions.
Interventional procedures are typically minimally invasive, catheter-based treatments used to treat both cardiac and vascular conditions throughout the body. Compared to more invasive procedures, minimally invasive treatments typically lead to quicker and easier recoveries. Among the treatments offered by our team of interventional cardiologists.
