Effective Care for Heartburn, GERD, Acid Reflux

We use several different terms that mean almost the same thing. When acid splashes up and out of your stomach and into your esophagus, it causes a burning sensation in your esophagus, located centrally in your chest not far from your heart, which is why people often refer to it as “heartburn.” GERD is a more severe form, a disease caused by chronic acid reflux and the resulting complications, even cancer.

Our arsenal against GERD, acid reflux and heartburn includes OTC and prescription medications, natural treatments, lifestyle changes and surgery for the worst cases that cannot be managed or corrected with more conservative care. Fortunately, very few patients require surgical intervention.
