In this episode of Baptist Health's Doc-to-Doc, we explore the evolving landscape of arrhythmia care with our host Tom Nguyen, M.D., Mario Pascual, M.D. and Bryon Tompkins, M.D.

Together they discuss why early referral changes AFib outcomes, how hybrid epicardial-endocardial ablation strategies improve rhythm durability and the role of left atrial appendage management in reducing stroke risk. The conversation also highlights modern pacing approaches to protect heart function, the importance of timely device infection management and the emerging impact of Al and robotic mapping on electrophysiology and surgical collaboration.

Tom Nguyen, M.D., is Chief Medical Executive of Baptist Health Heart & Vascular Care, Director of Minimally Invasive Surgery, and Barry T. Katzen Endowed Chair at Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute, and Professor and Chair of the Department of Cardiovascular Sciences at Florida International University Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine.
Electrophysiologist Mario Pascual, M.D. and Cardiothoracic surgeon, Bryon Tompkins, M.D. are integral members of Baptist Health Heart & Vascular Care.


👉 If you are a cardiologist, electrophysiologist or cardiac surgeon navigating the complexity of rhythm disorders, this conversation will help sharpen your clinical edge.
