Treatment: Treatment for gerd includes lifestyles changes, medication, endoscopic therapy, and surgical therapy. There are some tests required to make sure you are a candidate for endoscopic or surgical treatment. You should see a general surgeon with significant experience treating gerd surgically for a consultation.

Need w/u confirm GER: You should see Gi to confirm that your symptoms are from acid reflux.Recognizing nonerosive reflux (NERD) as a distinct presentation of GERD was one of the most important developments in the field of GERD in the last decade. NERD disorder accounts for the majority of the GERD patients and those who failed PPI Rx. Esophageal impedance + pH has led to the assessment of other forms of GER -NERD
