Jason Koontz is an Associate Professor of Medicine at Duke University whose work centers on cardiac electrophysiology and ventricular arrhythmia care. He earned an M.D. from Harvard University in 2002, completed residency at Duke from 2002 to 2005, and was a Duke cardiology fellow from 2005 to 2011. His publication record includes ventricular ablation, same-day discharge after ventricular ablation, ICD shocks in patients with LVADs, left bundle branch area pacing, Purkinje re-entry, and Ripple mapping for outflow-tract premature ventricular contractions. A 2025 feature interview also identifies his experience with streamlining retrograde aortic access in ventricular tachycardia procedures. His Duke appointments have included Medical Instructor, Assistant Professor of Medicine, and Associate Professor of Medicine.
