- Bio:
Dr. Robinson specializes in heart rhythm disorders. She performs catheter ablation procedures to treat irregular, fast or erratic heartbeats, including atrial fibrillation. She treats genetic arrhythmia syndromes, arrhythmias during pregnancy and cardiomyopathy, a disease that makes it harder for the heart to pump blood. She also provides pacemaker and defibrillator care.
Dr. Robinson wants to comfort patients who are fearful of their diagnosis and to be someone they can turn to who can shepherd them through treatment. She believes that patients in smaller communities deserve ready access to advanced cardiac care.
When not caring for patients, she enjoys spending time with family, beachcombing, camping and exploring.
