Unfortunately most physicians don't specify if they are "competent" or not. Also people really need to consider the that there are always possible issues involved anytime someone is inserting anything into their heart. Procedures do not always end as expected. Most important take away is for people to REALLY UNDERSTAND what they are getting into and not just relying on a physician who may or may not be competent.
Excellent explanation gloaming. It’s been six months since my ablation and I am being monitored with holter tests. Followup is in September. I’ll wait to see what my cardiologist says but most likely I expect I will be advised to stay on the blood thinner. Scary thinking about possible strokes due to clots. xo
