Biography

Mark Blitzer, MD, is a cardiologist and cardiac electrophysiologist, a type of specialist who diagnoses and treats heart rhythm abnormalities, or arrhythmias.

Dr. Blitzer takes care of patients with a variety of cardiac issues including atrial fibrillation(an irregular and often rapid heart rhythm), cardiomyopathy(disease of the heart muscle), and tachycardia (a too-fast heart rate).

He utilizes many different treatments in his practice, including implantable cardioverter defibrillators (which detect and stop heart arrhythmias), pacemakers (which send electrical pulses to regulate heartbeats), and catheter ablations. Catheter ablation is a minimally invasive treatment to help patients with arrhythmias.

Dr. Blitzer is an assistant professor of medicine (cardiology) at Yale School of Medicine.
