About This Program
Niche procedures many programs don't offer, including alcohol ablation, advanced lead extraction techniques, EVICD, leadless pacemakers, phrenic nerve stimulators, and convergent atrial fibrillation ablation. Top 5% in lead extraction programs. A VA rotation that allows for dedicated research time while on that rotation. Our program also has several research meetings that faculty, fellows and residents participate in.
