Services and Procedures

HEARTBURN, ACID REFLEX, AND GERD

Gastroesophageal Reflux (GERD) happens when your stomach contents come back up into your esophagus. Stomach acid that touches the lining of your esophagus can cause heartburn.

CELLVIZO

Cellvizio's advanced technology generates optical biopsies using the world’s smallest flexible microscope, providing clinicians with microscopic images. Cellvizio is used in over 40 countries and 550 clinics worldwide.

STRETTA

Stretta is a non-invasive, endoscopic treatment of acid reflux in which radiofrequency energy is applied to the gastroesophageal junction limiting free reflux of gastric contents to reduce heartburn.

ENDOSCOPIC SPHINCTER AUGMENTATION

ESA is a new, minimally invasive, and effective endoscopic procedure for treating GERD. Recommended to patients who have chronic acid reflux that has been unresponsive to alternative treatments.

NON-SURGICAL OPTIONS AND DIET

Your doctor may recommend surgery if your GERD symptoms don’t improve with lifestyle changes or medicines. You’re more likely to develop complications from surgery than from medicines.

ESOGUARD DNA TEST

Early detection of abnormal esophageal cells can identify precancerous DNA methylation biomarkers allowing time for treatment, intervention, and prevention of esophageal cancer.

HIATAL HERNIA REPAIR

Nearly 1/3 of adults in the USA experience issues with heartburn or acid reflux weekly. GERD is normally a symptom of a weak esophageal sphincter, a hiatal hernia, or both and will require surgical intervention.

IMPEDANCE AND MANOMETRY

The Bravo pH test is a procedure performed to measure the pH or amount of acid that flows into the esophagus from the stomach for 24 hours to identify the cause of heartburn.

TIF

Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication (TIF) is a minimally invasive treatment for GERD. The procedure is performed through the mouth which means you will not have any incisions in your abdomen.

LINX PROCEDURE

LINX device is a miniature ring of interlinked titanium beads with a magnetic core that is placed around the gastroesophageal junction to prevent stomach acid from entering the esophagus.
