My Doctors tell me it isn’t the age of the person but the present health they are in when considering procedures.. I got AFIB when I was 75 years old. I only had it 19 months but I kept taking more and more medicine to control it. I had two CardioVersions that each only lasted two days. I drove from CA. to Mayo Clinic Phoenix, and had my Ablation there. Mayo Clinic has a good success rate which was important to me because I see some people have two and three Ablation Surgeries…I had mine in 2020 and no problems since..I was so impressed with Mayo Clinic we sold our House in Northern CA. And moved to AZ so I could continue to be a Patient at Mayo Clinic as I age…I am now 79 yrs old.

Welcome to Arizona, I to live there. I had my Heart Transplant there in 2018. I also am very happy with their care. Great place to receive all kinds of heart related care.
