I have svt. i'm a high level athlete. ive been seeing pediatric electrophysiologist since i was 16. i just turned 19, am i too old to be pediatric? do pediatric doctors think 19 is too old?

No: Transitions are difficult but those with specialized issues are often more affected by this quandary. The Pediatric sub-specialties like electrophysiology will often see young adults well into their twenties. You need to ask your treating team about how/when you will move to a different team. They have been through the process & often have suggestions on which people are recommended.
