If you’re concerned you might have an arrhythmia, trust Dr. Alireza Nazeri, your Cardiologist and Cardiac Electrophysiologist in Houston, TX at Mobitz Heart & Rhythm Center for the quality care and treatment you need.
In simple terms, an arrhythmia is an abnormal or irregular heartbeat. It is also referred to as dysrhythmia.
While pulses and heartbeats vary to some degree from person to person, each heartbeat tends to follow the same basic rhythm. However, sometimes, it can feel like the heart has skipped a beat, is beating faster or slower than normal, or is fluttering.
