What is Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)?

GERD is a condition that happens when some of your stomach juices flow back into your esophagus (the tube that connects your mouth with your stomach) and it is a very common condition.

Reflux Surgery

If lifestyle changes or medicine do not help, or you do not want to keep taking medicine, then GERD Surgery or more comonly known as Reflux Surgery is very effective in treating GERD (Heartburn). Dependant on your individual situation your surgeon will perform the surgery either via Laparoscopic a minimally-invasive approach, or by a more invasive ‘open’ approach and will operate on the LES valve to make it stronger which helps prevent stomach juices from flowing back into the esophagus.
