Long-term relief from chronic reflux
If medications haven’t stopped your heartburn, regurgitation, or throat discomfort (known as GORD), surgery may offer the relief you’re seeking. Laparoscopic fundoplication reinforces the valve between stomach and oesophagus to stop reflux for the long term.
Proven, lasting relief from reflux
Fundoplication involves wrapping the top of the stomach (the fundus) around the lower oesophagus. This reinforces the valve and helps prevent acid reflux. Often performed laparoscopically, it uses small incisions and instruments for minimal impact.
Reflux can significantly affect comfort, sleep, and quality of life—and long-term medication doesn’t address the root cause. Fundoplication offers a permanent solution, reducing reliance on drugs and restoring normal digestion.
Many patients experience immediate and sustained relief from heartburn, regurgitation and associated symptoms. Most report improved quality of life and tolerance of foods previously affected by reflux.
Most people stay in hospital for 1–2 nights and gradually return to normal activities within 1–2 weeks. You’ll start with a soft or liquid diet, moving to regular foods with guidance to support healing.
Our team provides comprehensive support, including pre-operative preparation, post-surgical dietary advice, and regular follow-up to ensure proper healing and symptom resolution.
