Surgery consultation: Persisitent GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) despite medical therapy should prompt a visit to a general surgeon with interest in anti-reflux surgery. Consultation and history-taking will focus on how your reflux affects your activities, sleeping patterns, quality of life, etc. Upper endoscopy will be part of workup, and then the myriad of surgical options may be discussed.
