An Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) consultation focuses on evaluating irregular heart rhythms and the symptoms they cause. Providers assess palpitations, fatigue, shortness of breath, dizziness, or chest sensations and determine whether they may be related to AFib, other arrhythmias, or non-cardiac conditions.
The goal is to identify risks, understand the type of arrhythmia, and guide safe next steps for treatment, monitoring, and long-term heart health protection.
What We Review During Your Consultation:
- Palpitations or irregular heartbeat episodes
- Dizziness, fatigue, weakness, or shortness of breath
- Medical history and stroke risk factors (CHAâ‚‚DSâ‚‚-VASc)
- Heart rate patterns and potential triggers
- Medication use, including anticoagulants or rate-control drugs
- Need for ECG, monitoring, or cardiology referral
- Guidance on lifestyle changes and symptom management

Took my elderly mother, who is also a cancer patient there looking for a primary care doctor. I have 30 years of experience under my belt of dealing with medical professionals, and I don't give 5 stars easily. The place was immaculate, and we were greeted with smiles when we walked through the door.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Z-2-H Family Med & Urgent Care
What symptoms may indicate Atrial Fibrillation?
AFib symptoms include palpitations, rapid or irregular heartbeat, dizziness, fatigue, chest discomfort, or shortness of breath. Some people have no symptoms and AFib is discovered during evaluation.
Is Atrial Fibrillation dangerous?
AFib increases the risk of stroke, heart failure, and other complications if untreated. Early evaluation helps determine your risk level and the safest treatment plan.
How is AFib diagnosed?
Diagnosis may involve medical history, symptom review, vital signs, ECG testing, rhythm monitoring, and sometimes blood work to identify contributing conditions.
Can AFib be evaluated at home?
Yes. Providers can evaluate symptoms, assess medication needs, and guide next steps from home. If advanced diagnostics are needed, we coordinate appropriate referrals.
What treatments are available for AFib?
Treatments may include rate-control medications, rhythm-control medications, anticoagulants to reduce stroke risk, lifestyle adjustments, and referral to cardiology for long-term planning.
When should I seek urgent or emergency care?
Seek immediate care if you experience severe chest pain, fainting, severe shortness of breath, or rapid worsening of symptoms, as these may indicate a medical emergency.
Can lifestyle changes help manage AFib?
Yes. Reducing caffeine, alcohol, and stress, improving sleep, and staying active may help reduce AFib episodes. Your provider will review personalized strategies.
Will my insurance cover an AFib visit?
Most insurance plans cover cardiovascular evaluations. Coverage depends on your specific plan, copay, and deductible.
Can AFib improve with treatment?
Many patients experience fewer episodes and symptoms with appropriate treatment. Some may require long-term management or periodic monitoring to reduce risks.
How can I prepare for my AFib appointment?
Bring your medication list, symptom history, triggers, and any previous cardiac test results to help guide evaluation and treatment planning.
