Dr. Mayer Rashtian, M.D., FACC, FHRS Medical Director, Cardiac Electrophysiology – Huntington Hospital, Pasadena, CA Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine, Keck School of Medicine of USC Assistant Clinical Professor of Nursing, UCLA I currently serve as the Medical Director of the Cardiac Electrophysiology (EP) Department at Huntington Hospital in Pasadena, California, where I lead a high-volume clinical practice specializing in diagnosing and treating cardiac arrhythmias. My practice offers a full spectrum of electrophysiology services, including complex catheter ablations, pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation, biventricular device therapy, and left atrial appendage occlusion using both WATCHMAN and AMULET devices. In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I am actively engaged in cardiac electrophysiology research and have contributed to multiple multicenter trials involving implantable cardiac devices and sudden cardiac death. My curricu...

I am a board-certified Interventional and Structural Cardiologist specializing in catheter-based procedures to treat coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, and heart failure. I received my cardiovascular fellowship training at the Cleveland Clinic, Internal Medicine training at Emory University, and undergraduate degree at Vanderbilt University. I have numerous peer-reviewed publications in high impact cardiovascular journals, serve as principle or co-investigator in numerous clinical trials, serve as an adverse event adjudicator for clinical trials with Cleveland Clinic’s C4 Academic Research Organization, serve as a medical director for TurningPoint Healthcare adjudicating appropriateness of cardiovascular medical claims, and am a high volume operator performing among the most complex procedures in my field. My clinical practice involves the routine performance of complex invasive cardiovascular procedures, including structural heart interventions (e.g. TAVR, MitraC...
