Overview
Dr. Thomas A. Dewland is a cardiologist with particular expertise in electrophysiology, the study of the heart's electrical activity. He cares for patients with arrhythmias (heart rhythm problems) in both the clinic and the hospital. Among other treatments, he performs catheter ablation (in which a flexible tube called a catheter is threaded through a blood vessel to reach the heart and destroy the tissue causing an arrhythmia), pacemaker implantation, implantable cardioverter defibrillator placement and left atrial appendage closure (sealing the heart sac where blood clots form to help prevent stroke in patients with the heart rate irregularity called atrial fibrillation). In research, Dewland focuses on atrial fibrillation epidemiology (the study of which populations are affected by certain diseases and why). His goal is to identify ways to prevent atrial fibrillation before it occurs. Dewland earned his medical degree at the Yale School of Medicine. At UCSF, he completed a residency in internal medicine, a fellowship in cardiology and a fellowship in cardiac electrophysiology, as well as the Advanced Training in Clinical Research Certificate Program. Outside of work, Dewland enjoys spending time with his wife – a pediatrician at UCSF – and their two children.
Dr. Dewland is highly rated in 33 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Atrial Fibrillation, Arrhythmias, Ectopic Heartbeat, Cardiac Ablation, and Pacemaker Implantation.
Dr. Dewland is board certified in American Board Of Internal Medicine, Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology, Internal Medicine (Sub: Cardiovascular Disease), and Internal Medicine (Sub: Clin Cardiac Electrophysiolog. He is actively involved in clinical research, co-authoring 118 peer reviewed articles and participating in 2 clinical trials. Dr. Dewland is currently accepting new patients.

Clinical Research
Clinical research consists of overseeing clinical studies of patients undergoing new treatments and therapies, and publishing articles in peer reviewed medical journals. Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
2 Clinical Trials
UCSF Department Of Electrophysiology
Dr. Edward P. Gerstenfeld is chief of the UCSF Cardiac Electrophysiology and Arrhythmia Service. His expertise includes treating arrhythmias, or irregular heartbeats, with catheter ablation. Specific techniques, such as endocardial and epicardial ablation, may be used for atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia or ventricular tachycardia. Gerstenfeld also specializes in treating patients with inherited arrhythmia syndromes such as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, Brugada syndrome, long QT syndrome and adult congenital heart disease. Treatments include implantation of pacemakers, defibrillators and cardiac resynchronization devices. In his research, Gerstenfeld studies the mechanisms of arrhythmia, new technologies for mapping and ablation of arrhythmias, biomedical signal processing and electrocardiography. He is the primary investigator for several clinical trials. Gerstenfeld earned a medical degree at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and a master of science degree in biomedical engineering at Northwestern University. He completed a residency at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, a cardiology fellowship at the University of Massachusetts, a research fellowship at UCSF and an electrophysiology fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania. Gerstenfeld is a fellow of the American College of Cardiology and a member of the Heart Rhythm Society and American Heart Association. He has published numerous manuscripts and book chapters, and he often lectures on mapping and treating arrhythmias. He is associate editor of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC): Clinical Electrophysiology. Dr. Gerstenfeld is highly rated in 20 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Arrhythmias, Atrial Fibrillation, Ventricular Tachycardia, Cardiac Ablation, and Pacemaker Implantation. Dr. Gerstenfeld is board certified in American Board Of Internal Medicine, Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology and Internal Medicine (Sub: Clin Cardiac Electrophysiolog. Dr. Gerstenfeld is currently accepting new patients.
Comprehensive Genetic Arrhythmia Program
Dr. Gregory Marcus is a cardiologist and electrophysiologist who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of arrhythmias, including cardiac mapping and catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardias and ventricular arrhythmias. He is also an expert in implanting pacemakers, biventricular devices and defibrillators. In his research, Marcus studies heart rhythm disturbances, and the health effects of common lifestyle factors such as alcohol, caffeine, smoking and other substances, and leads several large projects to use sensors, smart phones and other technologies to conduct clinical research. Marcus earned his medical degree from George Washington University School of Medicine & Health Sciences. He completed his residency at Stanford Medicine. He then completed his training in cardiovascular medicine and cardiovascular electrophysiology at UCSF. Dr. Marcus is highly rated in 17 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Atrial Fibrillation, Ectopic Heartbeat, Heart Block, Cardiac Ablation, and Pacemaker Implantation.
