Use of this site does not create a doctor-patient relationship

Reading, viewing, or otherwise using the material on this site does not establish you as a patient of Ilyas K. Colombowala, MD, or any affiliated practice. A doctor-patient relationship is only formed through a formal in-person or telehealth consultation, after appropriate intake and acceptance by the practice. Submitting a contact form, sending an email, or interacting with this site in any other way does not create a clinical relationship and does not obligate Dr. Colombowala or the practice to provide you with care.

The content here is educational, not medical advice

Every page on this site is written for general educational purposes. The information is intended to help you understand common heart-rhythm conditions and the procedures, devices, and medications that may be used to treat them. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment specific to your situation. Your case may differ in important ways from what is described here.

Always seek the advice of your physician or another qualified health-care professional with any questions about a medical condition — including before starting, stopping, or changing any treatment, medication, or activity. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read on this site.
