Biography: Dr. Bill Whang is a specialist in heart rhythm disorders. He has expertise in catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia, and works closely with colleagues who treat heart failure and adult congenital heart disease. He also has a clinical interest in left atrial appendage closure device implant. His research background is in epidemiology, and he has published on psychosocial factors in cardiac arrhythmia as well as on catheter ablation of arrhythmias. After medical school and residency at Columbia, he completed his cardiology and electrophysiology fellowships at Massachusetts General Hospital. He has been on the faculty since 2006.

Care Philosophy: As a cardiac electrophysiologist, I feel that it is a privilege to practice at the forefront of innovative medicine. Advancements in our understanding of heart rhythm disorders have translated into new therapies that improve the quality and duration of the lives of our patients every day. At an academic institution that strives for excellence, I hope to deliver outstanding care to my patients and to make significant contributions to the field of cardiac electrophysiology by engaging in important research.

Care Philosophy: As a cardiologist who specializes in heart rhythm abnormalities, I have witnessed dramatic changes in our understanding of arrhythmias and in treatment possibilities to improve health and longevity of our patients.Treatments that are now considered routine were unimaginable when I started my medical career. I am fortunate to have access to the latest advances in technology and a highly trained, professional team that shares a common goal of achieving optimal outcomes in patient care. But more importantly, my colleagues and I recognize that treating a patient with heart rhythm ailments requires attention not only to technical considerations but also to coping with the impact of arrhythmias on lifestyle and overall wellbeing. In this specialty, we have the ability to provide therapies that not only prolong life but also improve its quality. My practice is devoted to treatment of patients with arrhythmias, including rapid heart rhythms such as atrial fibrillation and flutter, supraventricular tachycardia, and ventricular tachycardia. I also treat patients with abnormally slow heart rhythms (known as bradycardia). I perform interventional procedures aimed at alleviating these conditions, specifically catheter ablation, pacemaker implantation, defibrillator implantation, and cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Care Philosophy: Cardiac Electrophysiology is exciting because the therapies can dramatically improve our patients' lives. I look forward to coming to work every day so that I can help deliver this cutting-edge treatment. At the same time, the most rewarding part of my job is the opportunity to guide each patient through their condition in an understandable way so that she/he can actively participate in our treatment plan. My belief is to treat each patient with clarity, care, and compassion - the same way that I would want my family to be treated.
