Helpful Information
  


A patient's primary care doctor may schedule an electrophysiology appointment, or patients can call themselves.

 

There are several ways to make appointments for electrophysiology services. The most direct way is for your physician to call the Hopkins Access Line (HAL) at 1-800-765-5447 and ask for any one of the Johns Hopkins electrophysiology doctors. Your doctor also may call the EP procedure scheduling office at 410-614-4243 or call one of the doctors directly. Tilt table tests are scheduled through the tilt table diagnostic laboratory at 410-614-4551. The physician phone numbers are listed on the inside back cover of this brochure. If you prefer to schedule the appointment yourself, you may call the outpatient clinic scheduling coordinator at 410-955-3116 or call one of the physician phone numbers listed on the inside back cover.
