GERD (Acid Reflux)

GERD Management at Premium Healthcare

We offer a full spectrum of GERD care services to address the root causes of reflux and provide lasting symptom control. Our care plans are tailored to your individual needs and lifestyle.

1. Clinical Evaluation & Symptom Review

Your visit begins with a thorough assessment. We take the time to understand your symptoms, dietary habits, stress levels, and health history to determine what’s driving your reflux.

2. In-House Testing & Diagnostic Support

When needed, we offer lab testing or refer for specialized procedures like upper endoscopy or pH monitoring to evaluate the esophagus and rule out complications.

3. Medication Management

Our providers prescribe medications that help reduce or block stomach acid production:

• Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs): Powerful acid reducers for healing and symptom control

• H2 Blockers: Help manage nighttime symptoms

• Antacids: Provide quick relief for occasional flare-ups

We customize your treatment plan and monitor your response closely.

4. Personalized Dietary Counseling

What you eat plays a critical role in controlling GERD. Our team helps you:

• Identify trigger foods and beverages

• Create balanced, reflux-friendly meal plans

• Adjust meal timing and portion sizes

• Stay hydrated and avoid late-night snacking

We work with your preferences to help you maintain a diet that supports long-term digestive health.

5. Lifestyle Coaching & Preventive Strategies

GERD often improves significantly with simple habit changes. We support you with:

• Sleep position advice (like elevating the bed head)

• Weight loss planning if needed

• Smoking cessation support

• Stress reduction techniques and mindful eating

Our goal is to equip you with the tools you need to feel better every day.

6. Referrals for Advanced Care

For patients with severe or persistent symptoms, we coordinate care with local gastroenterology specialists for further evaluation or procedures, such as endoscopy or esophageal motility testing.
