Cardiologists with expertise in this area are usually referred to as electrophysiologists. An electrophysiologist works closely with other cardiologists and cardiac surgeons to assist or guide therapy for heart rhythm disturbances (arrhythmias). They are trained to perform interventional and surgical procedures to treat cardiac arrhythmia.
