About Me

I specialize in treating complex heart rhythm disorders, with a particular focus on atrial arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation and atrial tachycardia, as well as ventricular arrhythmias. These conditions can significantly impact a person’s quality of life, and I’m passionate about helping patients understand their diagnosis and feel confident in their treatment plan.

In addition to managing fast heart rhythms, I also have expertise in pacing therapies to help patients with slow heart rhythms (bradyarrhythmias) and heart failure. I use advanced conduction system pacing techniques that can improve heart function and help patients feel better and stay active.

As an academic electrophysiologist, I’m committed to using the latest research and technology to offer personalized care that’s grounded in evidence and tailored to each patient’s needs.

I’m passionate about helping patients understand their diagnosis and feel confident in their treatment plan.

  • Dr Habel is the absolute best! She's caring, address's any and all concerns you may have and takes the time to ensure you totally understand your issue and what they are doing to improve your health! When I visit with Dr Habel I feel so much better and positive after my appointment!
  • My cardiologist talked to me about having the appointment when I saw him in a year. I was surprised that when I was told about the appointment being scheduled its date was in a year. I guess it was helpful that she had significantly more data to consider, and I was very comfortable with the decision not to do anything now but to see me again in a year.
  • Dr. Habel is wonderful. She is easy going, re-assuring & personable.
  • Dr. Habel is the best!!
  • Excellent on all measures.

  • Excellent communicator.
