Evidence-Based, Patient-Centered, Team-Directed Healthcare
Atrial fibrillation (AF or A-Fib) is the most common irregular or abnormal heart rhythm disorder, affecting more than 3 million Americans today. Thankfully, more options to treat atrial fibrillation are available than ever before.
The Snyder Center for Comprehensive Atrial Fibrillation is at the forefront of innovative and effective ways to treat and manage A-Fib through comprehensive, team-based clinical care and research.
The Valley Approach to Treating A-Fib
A Whole-Patient Approach
Our comprehensive A-Fib treatment focuses on improving a person’s overall health, not just A-Fib. That’s why each of our doctors takes the time to address other health issues that may contribute to or worsen a patient’s A-Fib.
At The Snyder Center, our team understands the delicate relationships that exist between A-Fib and other conditions, including:
- Hypertension
- Sleep apnea
- Obesity
- Stress
- Heart disease
- Heart failure
Managing these conditions and making positive lifestyle changes are at the center of each patient’s treatment plan. Each member of our physician team works with specialists in imaging, cardiology, sleep medicine, weight-loss management, nutrition, stress management and more, to treat A-Fib from all angles.
Ongoing Monitoring
When your initial course of treatment is completed, you'll continue to be monitored to ensure your condition has stabilized or is improving. Managing A-Fib is a daily responsibility for many patients, and we'll be there with you as partners in your care.
