Heart Care
At EPIC Heart & Vascular Center, we specialize in ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) and pacemaker implant procedures to help manage and correct life-threatening heart rhythm disorders. Our board-certified cardiologists use the latest technology and minimally invasive techniques to implant these life-saving devices with precision and care.
An ICD is a small device implanted under the skin that continuously monitors your heart rhythm and delivers life-saving shocks if dangerous arrhythmias are detected. A pacemaker, on the other hand, helps regulate slow or irregular heartbeats by sending electrical impulses to maintain a normal rhythm. These devices are essential for patients with certain arrhythmias, heart block, or heart failure.
Sudden cardiac arrest or ventricular arrhythmia
Severely slow heartbeat (bradycardia)
Heart block or atrial fibrillation
History of fainting due to rhythm disturbances
Heart failure with risk of arrhythmia
Syncope with unexplained rhythm problems
The ICD or pacemaker implant is typically a same-day, minimally invasive procedure performed in a cardiac catheterization lab. A small incision is made near the collarbone, and the device is connected to the heart through leads (thin wires). The entire process takes about 1–2 hours under local anesthesia with mild sedation. Most patients return home the same day and resume normal activities within a few days.
Same-day consultations and device evaluations available
Experienced cardiologists and electrophysiologists performing implants
Advanced device programming and remote monitoring
Comprehensive post-procedure follow-up care
Three convenient locations in the Greater Houston area
Accepting most major insurance plans, including Medicare
We understand that getting an implantable device is a major decision. Our team is here to guide you through every step — from diagnosis to implantation to long-term care — with compassion and expert knowledge.
