Dr. Kevin Kwaku is a Cardiac Electrophysicist practicing in Honolulu, HI. Dr. Kwaku performs testing procedures on patients hearts electrical system in order to assess timing and abnormalities associated with electrical activities of the heart. Adult Cardiac Electrophysiologists are trained to treat irregular heartbeats, and carry out electrophysiology studies or ablations.
