TREATMENT

Advanced GERD (acid reflux) Treatment in Hyderabad

Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda provides personalized GERD treatment in Hyderabad, focusing on relieving acid reflux, healing the esophagus, preventing complications, and improving long-term digestive health. Treatment is carefully planned based on the severity of symptoms and each patient’s condition.

Lifestyle & Dietary Modifications

Healthy lifestyle changes play a vital role in controlling GERD symptoms. Maintaining an ideal body weight, avoiding spicy and oily foods, eating smaller meals, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol intake, and avoiding lying down immediately after meals can significantly reduce acid reflux episodes.

Medical Management

For many patients, medications effectively reduce stomach acid production, relieve heartburn, promote healing of the esophagus, and prevent recurring symptoms. Treatment is customized to provide safe and long-lasting symptom control.

Advanced Endoscopic Evaluation

When symptoms persist or complications are suspected, an Upper GI Endoscopy helps evaluate the esophagus and stomach in detail. This procedure identifies inflammation, ulcers, Barrett's esophagus, or other abnormalities and helps determine the most suitable treatment.

Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Robotic Fundoplication

Patients with severe or long-standing GERD who do not respond to medical therapy may benefit from Laparoscopic Robotic Fundoplication. This advanced minimally invasive procedure strengthens the lower esophageal sphincter, effectively prevents acid reflux, and provides long-term symptom relief with faster recovery.

Long-Term Care & Prevention

Long-term GERD management includes regular follow-up, dietary counseling, lifestyle modifications, and ongoing monitoring. This comprehensive approach helps prevent recurrence and supports long-term digestive wellness.
