Arrhythmias
Arrhythmias or irregular heartbeats may be harmless, while others could signal underlying heart disease and may increase the risk of stroke, heart failure, or sudden cardiac events if left untreated. You can take charge of your heart health by coming to Madison Avenue Cardiovascular & Concierge Medicine in Midtown Manhattan, for the best arrhythmias diagnosis and treatment with renowned New York cardiologist Mark Meyer, MD, FACP, FACC.
What Are Arrhythmias?
Arrhythmias, often described as irregular heartbeats, occur when the heart beats too fast, too slow, or with an abnormal rhythm. While some arrhythmias may be harmless, others can signal underlying heart disease and may increase the risk of stroke, heart failure, or sudden cardiac events if left untreated. Symptoms can range from palpitations, dizziness, or shortness of breath to more serious episodes of fainting or chest discomfort. At our concierge practice, we provide advanced evaluation and personalized care for arrhythmias, including state-of-the-art diagnostics, tailored medical therapy, and coordination with leading specialists for procedures when needed. With our attentive, one-on-one approach, patients receive not only expert treatment but also the reassurance of ongoing monitoring and 24/7 access to Dr. Meyer.
How Are Arrhythmias Diagnosed?
Arrhythmias are diagnosed through a careful combination of advanced testing and expert evaluation. At our concierge practice, we begin with a thorough medical history and physical exam, followed by state-of-the-art diagnostic tools such as electrocardiograms (ECG), Holter or event monitoring, and when appropriate, stress testing or advanced imaging to capture irregular heart rhythms. In some cases, more specialized studies like electrophysiology testing may be recommended. By combining these precise diagnostic methods with the convenience and personal attention of our concierge care, Dr. Meyer ensures that arrhythmias are identified accurately and quickly, allowing for timely and effective treatment tailored to each patient’s needs.
What Are the Treatments and Therapies for Arrhythmias?
Treatments and therapies for arrhythmias are highly individualized and depend on the type and severity of the irregular heartbeat. At our concierge practice, we focus on creating personalized care plans that may include lifestyle adjustments, medications to regulate heart rhythm or prevent complications, and, when necessary, advanced therapies such as catheter ablation or the placement of a pacemaker or defibrillator. For some patients, simple monitoring and risk management may be all that is required, while others benefit from interventional procedures coordinated with our own network of renowned specialists. With continuous monitoring, direct access to Dr. Meyer, and compassionate guidance, we help our patients manage their condition effectively and maintain confidence in their heart health.
