Gregory Feld

Dr. Feld has been ranked by his peers as one of the country’s top cardiac electrophysiologists in US News & World Report and other publications. He began development of a cardiovascular clinical research database, which then transitioned into a flexible, comprehensive patient information system for cardiovascular surgery that became Perminova EP, Perminova’s web-based patient information system used in electrophysiology (EP) labs.

Dr. Feld is Professor of Medicine at UC San Diego, and Director of the Cardiac Electrophysiology Program at the UCSD Medical Center. Perminova EP was developed in Dr. Feld’s EP lab. Dr. Feld’s clinical responsibilities include performing up to eight ablation procedures a week, as well as pacemaker and defibrillator implantation procedures. He currently performs the largest number of ablations for atrial fibrillation in Southern California. Dr. Feld has pioneered several new treatments for cardiac arrhythmias, including catheter ablation of atrial flutter and AV node modification for atrial fibrillation. His current research includes optimizing techniques for catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation, and development of new energy sources for catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation.

Dr. Feld is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association, and Heart Rhythm Society. He has been an Associate Editor for the journal Circulation and the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Dr. Feld has participated in numerous studies and his research has been published in major journals including Circulation, Circulation A&E, Heart Rhythm Journal, the Journal of Cardiac Electrophysiology, the Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology, PACE, the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, and the American Journal of Cardiology. He received his MD from Dartmouth Medical School.
