Diagnosis and Treatment of Heart Rhythm Disorders
Cardiac arrhythmias are disorders of the heart’s electrical system that cause it to beat too fast, too slow, or irregularly. Our cardiology team provides expert diagnosis and treatment of all types of rhythm disorders including atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia, bradycardia, and premature heartbeats — with a focus on identifying the underlying cause and creating an effective, individualized treatment plan.
Irregular heartbeats can range from harmless to life-threatening. If you’re experiencing palpitations or rhythm concerns, schedule an evaluation to get clear answers.
- Comprehensive evaluation of all arrhythmia types including atrial fibrillation and ventricular disorders
- Advanced diagnostic monitoring to capture intermittent rhythm disturbances
- Individualized treatment including medication management, stroke risk assessment, and referral for ablation when indicated

Key Benefits of Cardiac Arrhythmias
Not all arrhythmias are dangerous, but distinguishing between benign and potentially serious rhythm disturbances requires expert evaluation. Atrial fibrillation alone affects millions and significantly increases stroke risk if left unmanaged. Proper diagnosis, stroke risk assessment, and tailored treatment can reduce complications, relieve symptoms, and provide peace of mind.
Frequently asked question
Atrial fibrillation is the most common heart rhythm disorder. It causes the upper chambers of the heart to beat irregularly and often rapidly, increasing the risk of blood clots, stroke, and heart failure. Effective treatment options are available to control heart rate, restore rhythm, and reduce stroke risk.
Occasional palpitations are common and usually harmless. However, palpitations that are frequent, prolonged, associated with dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath should be evaluated promptly.
Treatment depends on the type and severity of the arrhythmia. Options include medications, lifestyle modifications, stroke prevention with blood thinners, and referral for procedures such as catheter ablation or device implantation when appropriate
