GERD with Dr. King
GERD, or Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, involves the backward flow of stomach contents into the esophagus, potentially causing damage. Surgical intervention is considered when persistent symptoms, like frequent heartburn or regurgitation, are not effectively managed by medications, especially if GERD negatively impacts one's quality of life or is associated with anatomical issues such as hiatal hernias.
