About Shephal Doshi, MD
Shephal K. Doshi, MD practices Cardiac Electrophysiology (EP) and arrhythmia management. He specializes in interventional therapies for arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia.
Dr. Doshi continues to be active in cutting-edge ablation research involving different forms of ablation energy, including cryo, laser, radiofrequency and pulse field ablation . He remains an international expert and researcher in atrial fibrillation and stroke risk reduction replacing oral anticoagulants (blood thinners) with left atrial appendage closure (LAAC), and is a co- national Principle Investigator in a number of trials in atrial fibrillation, LAAC and congestive heart failure.
Dr. Doshi earned his medical degree from the Albany Medical College of Union University in Albany, New York. He completed his internship and residency in Internal Medicine at the St. Mary Medical Center in Long Beach, California. He has held two fellowships: One at the Olive View/UCLA – Veterans Affairs West Los Angeles Healthcare Systems in California in Cardiovascular Disease, and a second Fellowship at the Massachusetts General Hospital-Harvard Medical School in Boston, Mass in true passion, Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology. He is certified by the American College of Cardiology.
You may have seen Dr. Doshi on the news when Eyewitness News interviewed him about the Watchman heart implant, which can reduce the risk of stroke, blood clots. He performed the first commercial cases of the Watchman and Watchman FLX devices in the US. He has published extensively in these topics with articles in the National Library of Medicine. He also serves as a national and international proctor to train other physicians.
Cardiac electrophysiology is not his only passion, however. He remains an avid lifelong Los Angeles Lakers fan and loves beach sports, live music, and football.
I had not seen Dr. Doshi in five years (since he had fixed my arrhythmia) and had forgotten how thorough he is, all the while respecting me, answering questions and recommending or discussing new issues.
