Electrophysiology has been around for years, but mostly it was just a diagnostic field. They couldn't do anything. I really hit the wave perfectly. Ablations really came on in the early 90s, when I was in residency and fellowship. I was in the room the first time an ablation was done at Barnes. The timing was just right. Implantable defibrillators also became much more common when I was in training and getting into practice, so I really hit it perfectly and its just been an incredibly busy and satisfying career.
