Andrew D. Beaser, MD is a cardiac electrophysiologist specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of complex heart rhythm disorders. He is highly skilled in catheter ablation of arrhythmias—including atrial fibrillation (AF), supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), and ventricular tachycardia (VT)—using both radiofrequency (RF) and pulsed field ablation (PFA) technologies. Dr. Beaser also has extensive expertise in device-based therapies, performing pacemaker and defibrillator implantations, including transvenous and subcutaneous ICDs, as well as leadless pacemakers. His work in lead management has made him a leader in complex laser lead extraction procedures.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Beaser conducts research closely aligned with his subspecialty interests. He aims to advance the safety and effectiveness of lead extraction and to explore innovative applications of radiofrequency ablation for non-arrhythmic cardiac conditions. He is also investigating the effects of GLP-1–based weight-loss therapies on the burden of atrial fibrillation.
Dr. Beaser plays an active role in multidisciplinary care through his involvement with a dedicated Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Center. He provides consultative cardiovascular care to the Chicago Sky WNBA team and several collegiate athletic programs. A committed educator, he is passionate about teaching trainees the principles of cardiac electrophysiology and ECG interpretation.
