The Cardiac Arrhythmia Service at the state-of-the art Shapiro Cardiovascular Center is staffed by an expert team of electrophysiologists – cardiologists who have extensive training in the diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm problems – many of whom are international experts on arrhythmias.
Electrophysiologists use certain invasive procedures to study the heart’s electrical system, such as placing electrode catheters into the heart to diagnose arrhythmias or to access the heart for treatment. They also implant devices, such as pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs)and cardiac resynchronization devices (CRTs).
These highly specialized physicians are part of a multidisciplinary team which includes an outstanding staff of nurses, technicians, fellows and research assistants – all of whom are dedicated to providing the highest quality care to patients.
The entire Cardiac Arrhythmia Service team understands the importance of comprehensive ongoing care for our patients. It starts with communication, ensuring that patients have a full understanding of their condition and their treatment options.
