The seminar features interventional cardiologist Dr. Maria Baldasare, who will discuss the diagnosis and treatment of atrial fibrillation as well as a new one-time procedure for non-valvular AFib.

In practice since 2016, Maria Baldasare, M.D., FACC, comes to Northwest Arkansas from Mowery Clinic, LLC, in Salina, Kan. Her interests include high risk percutaneous coronary intervention (CHIP), left atrial appendage closure, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and women’s health.
According to the CDC, atrial fibrillation is the most common heart rhythm abnormality in the U.S., impacting nearly one in 10 people older than 65. Although not usually life-threatening by itself, it can lead to other serious problems such as stroke.
