Clinical Interests
My clinical interest spans all of cardiac electrophysiology, dealing with slow and fast heart rhythm problems. My clinical expertise includes all cardiac device implantations related to heart rhythm disturbances, as well as a comprehensive list of cardiac ablations (cauterization) to improve or cure arrhythmias occurring in both the top and bottom parts of the heart (including atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardias).

The Patient metric-rating score is an average of all responses to
care provider related questions on our independent metric-rating
system, the Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. This survey is
about the patient care experience and does not address crucial
characteristics like medical decision-making, prescribing the best
therapy, and patient outcomes.
