Dr Miles was on the faculty at Indiana University from 1983-1998 where he was Professor of Medicine and Director of the Electrophysiology Laboratory.  In 1998 he joined a cardiology/electrophysiology practice in Fort Myers, Florida but remained active in teaching as Voluntary Professor of Medicine at the University of Miami.  He joined the faculty at the University of Florida in 2005. He is certified in Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology by the American Board of Internal Medicine and is a Fellow of the Heart Rhythm Society.
