I like my Cardiologist, but he has not talked about me seeing an Electrophysiologist. Should I ask for a second opinion from another Cardiologist?

Most definitely. In fact, it’s easy to find a local Electrophysiologist yourself. The Web site of the Heart Rhythm Society has a feature called Finding A Heart Rhythm Specialist. When you type in your State and City, the site gives you a list of Electrophysiologists in your area. However, not all Electrophysiologists perform and have sufficient experience in Pulmonary Vein Ablation (Isolation). Use our Web site’s QuestionsForDoctors and Facilities sections to help select the right Electrophysiologist for you.
