Specialty Interests

Dr Vikas Kataria provides non-surgical heart therapy, pacemaker implantation, and blocked artery stenting across the following areas:

Heart Rhythm and Electrophysiology Care

Dr Vikas diagnoses and treats irregular heartbeats (arrhythmia), fluttering palpitations, and rapid racing pulse conditions such as atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. He performs advanced 3D heart mapping and tissue-selective catheter ablations, including modern Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA), to restore normal heart rhythm and prevent unexplained fainting spells (syncope).

Pacemaker and Cardiac Device Implantation

Dr V Kataria performs procedures to implant devices that protect cardiac pumping function and prevent sudden cardiac arrest. He places conventional pacemakers, advanced leadless pacemakers (Micra), implantable defibrillators (ICDs), and specialized resynchronization devices (CRT) to regulate heartbeats and improve daily physical energy in heart failure patients.

Coronary Angioplasty and Hypertension Care

Dr Kataria evaluates unexplained chest pain, breathlessness, and high cholesterol through treadmill tests, Holter monitoring, and echocardiograms. He performs minimally invasive coronary and peripheral angioplasty stenting to clear blocked blood vessels, and coordinates specialized renal denervation procedures to lower severe resistant high blood pressure.
