Center for Arrhythmias

At Northwell, we have a dedicated team of experts for treating cardiac arrhythmias. We use the latest techniques and devices to help monitor, control and maintain a healthy heartbeat.

Leading the way in arrhythmia management

We use the latest technology to manage and treat cardiac arrhythmias. We offer both open surgery and minimally invasive procedures including ablation of cardiac arrhythmias, and pacemaker and defibrillator implantation or removal.

We continue to offer groundbreaking treatments because of our commitment to heart research. By participating in research and clinical trials, our physicians can provide you with medical treatments of the future—today.

Specialized programs

With atrial fibrillation (AF or A-fib), the most common heart rhythm disorder, the heart beats at an irregular and often rapid pace. Our team collaborates across specialties to improve access to care, optimize management, and improve outcomes.

Our team delivers leading-edge procedures, including complex ablations and structural interventions. You’ll have access to the most advanced treatments and a care team that will help determine the best procedure for you.

We are advancing electrophysiology every day with innovative techniques—paving the way for better care than ever before. We’re leaders in lead extraction and have access to novel technologies for even the most complex cases.

LAAO is a procedure that prevents blood clots in the left atrial appendage related to atrial fibrillation from going into the bloodstream and causing a stroke. Our experts collaborate across disciplines to find the right treatment.
