At the Arrhythmia Center at Columbia Heart Clinic, we pride ourselves in providing the most current and cutting edge technology in the world to our local community. Dr. Todd Senn MD, FACC starting implanting WATCHMAN devices in February of 2017 and was trained to perform this procedure at the Cleveland Clinic, the US News and World Report #1 ranked Heart Hospital in the nation. To date, Dr. Senn has performed more WATCHMAN procedures than anyone in the Midlands.
