What is a Pacemaker?
A pacemaker is a small, battery-powered device that helps regulate an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). It's implanted under the skin and uses electrical impulses to help the heart maintain a steady rhythm.
Who is the right doctor for a Pacemaker?
A cardiologist who specializes in arrhythmia management is the right doctor to consult for a pacemaker. These doctors have specialized training in diagnosing and treating heart rhythm disorders and can determine if a pacemaker is necessary for a patient.
