Laparoscopic Fundoplication
Not All Surgeries Need Big Cuts — And You Don’t Need a Long Recovery
Relief from Acidity and Reflux — Without Lifelong Medication
Living with acid reflux or GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) can be exhausting. Heartburn, food regurgitation, and the need for daily antacids become a frustrating part of life. But it doesn’t have to be this way forever.
Laparoscopic Fundoplication is a proven surgical solution for chronic GERD — especially for patients who no longer respond to medication or want a long-term fix.
This minimally invasive procedure strengthens the lower esophageal valve by wrapping part of the stomach around it, stopping acid from flowing back into the food pipe.
When Fundoplication May Be Right for You
We recommend this surgery for patients who have:
Chronic GERD despite long-term medication
Frequent heartburn and regurgitation
Difficulty sleeping or eating due to reflux
Damage to the esophagus (esophagitis, Barrett’s esophagus)
Hiatal hernia contributing to reflux
We’ll conduct a detailed diagnostic evaluation and only recommend surgery when it’s truly the best next step.
