There are cardiologists and there are those who specialize in rhythm (electrophysiologist). I suffered with afib for several years while being treated by two different cardiologists with medications. Neither ever mentioned the possibility of an ablation! I finally found Dr Coutourier and he had just brought in Dr Omar Shams who did an ablation and I have been symptom free for 16 months. I have also heard rave reviews of Dr. Garcia! Good luck!
