Hiatal Hernia Surgery by Dr. Arun Prasad
Hiatal hernia surgery is performed to repair the opening in the diaphragm and bring the stomach back to its normal position. It may also be combined with anti-reflux surgery such as fundoplication when GERD is present.
Dr. Arun Prasad provides hiatal hernia surgery after detailed evaluation of symptoms, endoscopy findings, imaging scans, reflux testing, esophageal function tests, medical history and overall patient condition.
Choosing an experienced hiatal hernia surgeon is important because the right treatment depends on hernia size, reflux severity, food pipe function and patient health. Laparoscopic repair may be suitable for selected patients.
