About


Heart Rhythm Disorder Experience & Technology

A heart rhythm disorder can increase the risk of stroke, heart failure and other serious complications. Doctors at Wellstar are experts at treating arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation (AFib) with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and cardiac ablation (the most common treatments for arrhythmia), implantable devices such as pacemakers, ICDs and other therapies.

Specialized labs & technology

To ensure the highest accuracy in determining the origin of the arrhythmia, our specialized electrophysiology labs have advanced capabilities that include 3D mapping systems. This also helps our specialists to decide what medicines might work best for you, and if we should do a catheter ablation.

Certifications & Recognitions

Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center is the first in Georgia and the fourth in the nation to receive the highest certification in cardiovascular care—the Comprehensive Cardiac Care Center Certification—by The Joint Commission and American Heart Association.

As a Center of Excellence designated by the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Association, Wellstar is one of the leading locations offering comprehensive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy care in metro Atlanta.
