About
Bio
I find great satisfaction in treating heart rhythm abnormalities. There are few areas in medicine where one can see such a dramatic and permanent change as in electrophysiology. .

Pacer check: These may be common arrhythmias that many people get. Given your history it would be good to have your pacemaker checked. Depending on the model, you may have storage for abnormal rhythms that the device sees. If not, you can wear a monitor to record the palpitations.
