with FPG Gastroenterologist Nihar Shah, MD
It is estimated that more than a third of all Americans experience acid reflux symptoms every week, and the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, has been sharply rising for years. But while common, neither should be dismissed. Both can cause severe discomfort, and if left untreated, conditions like GERD can also increase risk of certain cancers. Dr. Nihar Shah discusses advanced, incision-free procedures used by our gastroenterology team to offer lasting relief for persistent, painful and even drug-resistant reflux conditions.
