Biography

Dr. Stecker's clinical care focuses on improving symptoms through ablation of arrhythmias, managing slow heart rhythms through implantation of pacemakers, managing heart failure and risk of sudden cardiac death through implantation of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), and reducing stroke risk through appropriate anticoagulation of atrial fibrillation. While his clinic is not a dedicated smoking cessation center, all patients who smoke are directed toward resources to support an attempt to quit since this is often the single most important intervention for improving health and preventing death.
