Part 1 of 5: Atrial Fibrillation Diagnosis and Treatment

Sequoia Hospital and Silicon Valley Cardiology in concert started its highly successful and internationally recognized atrial fibrillation program in 2003. As of 2013 approximately 2,500 atrial fibrillation ablations have been performed. This series of five videos have been designed to help the viewer to understand what is atrial fibrillation, indications for ablation, what to expect before and after the ablation, and results of the procedure as performed by the five Silicon Valley Cardiac Electrophysiologists. You will meet the entire team of doctors performing this procedure, and we hope that you come away from this with an excellent understanding of atrial fibrillation ablation. For a consultation with a Silicon Valley Cardiac Electrophysiologist, call 650.617.8100 (East Palo Alto) or 650.363.5262 (Redwood City), or to Find a Doctor, call Sequoia Hospital Heart and Vascular Institute at 1-800-31-HEART.
