Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Whether surgery is a better option for getting relief from GERD symptoms; 2. In India, where is it performed; and 3. Is it a simple or complicated procedure.
Surgery is a onetime procedure, most people get relief and it is important in young people. Alternative is to take medicines life long with dietary and lifestyle adjustment such as: stop smoking, avoid fatty food, take multiple small meals, and avoid alcohol. Surgery is quite safe and most gastrointestinal surgeons can do this laparoscopically.
