The Multidisciplinary Team


The Orange County Heart Institute’s Atrial Fibrillation Center (AFib Center) team, includes specialists from cardiology, electrophysiology, cardiac surgery, cardiac imaging, arrhythmia research, emergency medicine, neurology, and geriatric medicine. Their combined expertise expands therapeutic options for A Fib patients beyond conventional therapies to tailor individual approaches that are safe and effective.





Ablation Therapy


Ablation therapy is a technique designed to treat tachycardias (fast heart rhythms) and eliminate the need for medications.

After the area of the heart causing the arrhythmia is pinpointed, your physician treats the problem by applying radio frequency energy through the catheter, which destroys (ablates) the arrhythmic tissue.
