Upper endoscopy, also known as esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), is a procedure that allows doctors to examine the lining of the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.
Anti-reflux surgery is a specialized procedure designed to stop the backward flow of stomach acid into the esophagus—a condition known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This minimally invasive surgery offers lasting relief when medications and lifestyle changes fail to control symptoms.
This treatment may be right for you if you:
Experience daily or severe heartburn
Have not responded well to acid-reducing medications
Suffer from regurgitation, chest pain, or difficulty swallowing
Have been diagnosed with complications like Barrett’s esophagus
If GERD is interfering with your quality of life, you may be a candidate.
A laparoscopic procedure where the top part of the stomach (fundus) is wrapped around the lower esophagus to strengthen the lower esophageal sphincter.
Benefits:
Long-term relief from acid reflux
High success rate
Medication-free solution
A small, flexible ring of magnetic beads is placed around the lower esophagus. It opens for food and closes to prevent acid reflux.
Best for: Patients who want a reversible, less-invasive option.
Uses radiofrequency energy to strengthen muscles at the junction of the esophagus and stomach. Ideal for patients not ready for traditional surgery.
✅ Drug-free solution for GERD
