Does heartburn frequently disturb your meals, sleep, or daily routine? Occasional heartburn is common, but recurring symptoms may indicate gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Finding the cause can help you explore suitable management options.
Dr Balaji Nagammapudur, Consultant Upper GI and Bariatric Surgeon at NMC Royal Hospital, Dubai, specialises in assessing and treating upper digestive conditions, including acid reflux and related oesophageal disorders.
His approach focuses on understanding the underlying problem before recommending treatment. Depending on your condition, this may include medication, lifestyle adjustments, diagnostic testing, or anti-reflux surgery.
What You Can Expect:
Reflux Symptom Evaluation: Assessment of heartburn, regurgitation, and persistent throat discomfort.
Individualised Advice: Recommendations based on your symptoms and health history.
Diagnostic Investigations: Appropriate tests to identify reflux and associated conditions.
Minimally Invasive Procedures: Laparoscopic fundoplication for selected patients who need surgery.
Recovery Guidance: Follow-up care and practical advice after treatment.
If recurring heartburn is affecting your quality of life, a consultation with an experienced upper GI surgeon can help you understand the next steps. Not every patient requires surgery, and treatment depends on individual clinical findings.
