Sreevilasam P. Abhilash is a cardiologist who looks after heart health in Garran, ACT. You’ll find the practice at Yamba Drive, Garran, ACT 2605, Australia.
In many cases, people come in because they’ve noticed a change in their heartbeat. This can feel like racing, fluttering, skipping beats, or sudden bouts of fast heart rate that settle down again. Dr Abhilash works with conditions such as atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT), paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), ectopic heartbeat, and Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
Some appointments are about slower or blocked signals in the heart too. That may include heart block. At times, symptoms can also be linked with things like low potassium levels or hyperventilation, so your heart story is always looked at in context, not just the number on the monitor.
There’s also care for more complex heart conditions. This includes cardiomyopathy and heart failure. People may also need help when scans or tests raise questions about a coronary artery aneurysm. Dr Abhilash also provides heart care for specific heart rhythm problems that can be serious, including ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation, and situations like cardiac arrest.
In some cases, the focus is on children. For example, paediatric myocarditis can be part of the picture, and this needs careful, steady follow-up.
Depending on what’s going on, treatment may include procedures such as cardiac ablation. Cardiac ablation can be used when the rhythm problem comes from a specific path in the heart. Over time, this can help reduce repeat episodes for some patients. There’s also a strong focus on understanding triggers and patterns, so you know what to watch for between visits.
If a person has had an episode of total anomalous pulmonary venous return (a heart and lung blood flow issue), or a more unusual heart wiring issue, your care plan still needs to be clear and practical. The aim is to make sure the right tests are done, results are explained in plain language, and next steps are decided together.
A few conditions mentioned in his care include double discordia and atrial or ventricular rhythm problems. While every case is different, the goal stays the same: calm, careful heart care, with support that fits real life.
