Doctors & patients are saying about 'Beat Your A-Fib'...


"If I had [your book] 10 years ago, it would have saved me 8 years of hell.”

Roy Salmon, Patient, A-Fib Free,
Adelaide, Australia

"This book is incredibly complete and easy-to-understand for anybody. I certainly recommend it for patients who want to know more about atrial fibrillation than what they will learn from doctors...."

Pierre Jaïs, M.D. Professor of Cardiology, Haut-Lévêque Hospital, Bordeaux, France

"Dear Steve, I saw a patient this morning with your book [in hand] and highlights throughout. She loves it and finds it very useful to help her in dealing with atrial fibrillation."

Dr. Wilber Su,
Cavanaugh Heart Center, 
Phoenix, AZ

"...masterful. You managed to combine an encyclopedic compilation of information with the simplicity of presentation that enhances the delivery of the information to the reader. This is not an easy thing to do, but you have been very, very successful at it."

Ira David Levin, heart patient, 
Rome, Italy

"Within the pages of Beat Your A-Fib, Dr. Steve Ryan, PhD, provides a comprehensive guide for persons seeking to find a cure for their Atrial Fibrillation."

Walter Kerwin, MD, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA


US Doctors Installing the Watchman Device – a List by A-Fib.com

If you are at high risk for stroke but can’t or don’t want to take anticoagulants, your doctor may suggest closing off the Left Atrial Appendage using an FDA approved occluder such as the Boston Scientific WATCHMAN™ device.

Who’s Installing the Watchman? Boston Scientific offers a database of medical centers implanting WATCHMAN, but there may be additional medical centers in your area that are not listed here.

My Recommendations: To install your Watchman device, I highly recommend selecting an electrophysiologist (EP) that is also certified in “Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology”. The following list of EPs meet this criteria and is offered as a service to our A-Fib.com readers.

NOTICE: Unlike some other directories we offer no preferential listings and accept no fee, benefit or value of any kind for listing a specific doctor or medical center, nor are we associated with any practice, medical center or physician.
