How Can A Large Hiatal Hernia Be Treated?

Good evening and thank you for being here. I am very concerned. I had a upper and lower GI. I was diagnosed with a large hiatal hernia. My Harvard Doctor stretched out my esophagus by 2 . That took care of all my lower GI problems. However, I went to see him for a follow-up today, and he just expects me to live with it. I have a lot of side effects from this hernia. I have the best insurance, and am not getting any younger. I m not sure how long we will have good insurance. Should I seek another doctor about the removal? End of my part of conversation. Awaiting any feedback I can get. Thank You.
