Acid Reflux / Hiatus Hernia Surgery in Bhakkar

Acid reflux and hiatus hernia surgery treats stubborn heartburn caused by stomach acid flowing back into the food pipe. This operation, performed at Brigadier Shafiq Trust Hospital in Bhakkar, tightens the diaphragm and rebuilds the acid barrier. Recovery is steady, and many people are able to reduce their daily reflux medicines afterward.

Long-term acid reflux and hiatus hernia can wear down the food pipe and disturb daily life when medicines stop working. Surgery offers a lasting fix by repairing the hernia and strengthening the valve that keeps stomach acid where it belongs.

Frequently asked questions

When is surgery needed for acid reflux or a hiatus hernia?

Surgery is usually considered when daily medicines fail to control symptoms, when the hernia is large, or when reflux keeps damaging the food pipe. Dr. Shehryar Niazi reviews your symptoms and tests before advising the right step.

Is the surgery done by keyhole or open method?

Most acid reflux and hiatus hernia repairs are done laparoscopically through a few small cuts. The keyhole method means less pain and a faster return to normal routine for most patients.
