Atrial fibrillation is more treatable than ever. If you've been told that medication is your only option, it may be time to get a second opinion. Modern treatment approaches can offer lasting freedom from AFib symptoms and medications.

Treatment Options

☑️

AFib Ablation

A minimally invasive procedure that targets the source of irregular heartbeats. Ideal for patients whose symptoms aren't controlled by medication or who prefer not to take lifelong drugs. Most patients return to normal activities within days.

🛡️

Watchman™ Device

A one-time procedure that reduces stroke risk without the need for blood thinners. Perfect for patients with bleeding concerns or lifestyle limitations. The device seals the left atrial appendage where most stroke-causing clots form.

💊

Medication Management

Traditional approach using rate control, rhythm control, and anticoagulation medications. While effective for some, this option often means lifelong medication with potential side effects and doesn't address the underlying cause.

Long-term Success

  • Medication: Variable
  • Ablation: 70–80%
  • Watchman: 95% stroke prevention

Daily Medication

  • Medication: Often lifelong
  • Ablation: Often reduced or stopped
  • Watchman: Blood thinners may be stopped

Symptom Relief

  • Medication: Symptoms may persist
  • Ablation: Often improved
  • Watchman: Reduced bleeding risk

Recovery Time

  • Medication:
  • Ablation: Days–weeks
  • Watchman: 1–2 days
