Dr. Victor J. Mazza, Director of Cardiology & Electrophysiology, was born and raised in Nutley, New Jersey. He has been practicing Cardiology and Electrophysiology since 2010.

He is board certified in Internal Medicine, Cardiovascular disease, and Electrophysiology. He received his medical degree from Saint George’s University School of Medicine. Dr. Mazza completed his Internal Medicine residency, Chief residency and Cardiology Fellowship at

Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. His second fellowship, in Electrophysiology, was completed at Temple University in Philadelphia.

His dual fellowships and advanced training, allow him to take care of and manage patients covering the full spectrum of cardiac conditions - general cardiology and electrophysiology (see

list of common disorders below). He has received numerous honors and awards. 2006- Arnold P. Gold Foundation Award for

Humanism, as well as being selected as one of New Jersey’s and Castle Connolly’s Top Doctors. He has given oral presentations and poster presentations at local and National conferences and has authored and co-authored numerous articles in peer reviewed journals.

provide pre surgical cardiac risk assessment (Cardiac clearance).

Electrophysiology Conditions: Cardiac arrhythmias (Atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia, PVCs (premature ventricular contractions), Cardiac rhythm devices (in office and remote interrogation), Palpitations, Syncope (Passing Out), POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) as well as the genetic arrhythmia abnormalities -Long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy and

Catecholaminergic Ventricular Tachycardia.

Hospital based procedures: Cardiac rhythm device implantation: Pacemakers (Leadless, transvenous), Defibrillators (transvenous, subcutaneous), Biventricular devices, Loop recorders,

Tilt table test, Electrophysiology studies, Ablation of cardiac arrhythmias.
