Importance of Gastroenterology
Understanding GERD
Comprehensive Diagnostic Services
At United Gastroenterology Associates, we offer a comprehensive range of diagnostic services to accurately diagnose GERD and assess its severity. Our state-of-the-art diagnostic tools include:
- Endoscopy: A procedure that allows us to view the inside of your esophagus and stomach, helping to identify inflammation, ulcers, or other abnormalities.
- pH Monitoring: This test measures the acidity level in your esophagus, providing crucial information about acid exposure and reflux frequency.
Esophageal Manometry: This test evaluates the function of your esophagus and the lower esophageal sphincter, which can help determine the cause of reflux.
Tailored Treatment Options
We understand that each patient’s experience with GERD is unique. Our team of specialists works closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs and lifestyle. Our treatment options include:
- Lifestyle and Dietary Modifications: Simple changes, such as avoiding trigger foods, eating smaller meals, and elevating the head of your bed, can significantly reduce symptoms.
- Medications: We may prescribe medications to reduce stomach acid production or improve esophageal motility, helping to alleviate symptoms and promote healing.
Minimally Invasive Procedures: For patients with severe GERD or complications, we offer advanced procedures such as fundoplication or LINX device placement to reinforce the lower esophageal sphincter and prevent acid reflux
