Catheter Ablation

Dr. Yoruk completed his advanced cardiac electrophysiology training at UCSF Medical Center in San Francisco under the mentorship of several pioneers and leaders of field, including Dr. Melvin Scheinman, who pioneered cardiac catheter ablation. Dr. Scheinman performed the first human catheter ablation in 1981, and the procedure has since been used for many decades to treat cardiac arrhythmias for therapy and improvement in the lives of millions.
