Greg's Story

Greg actually works for the company that developed the TIF incisionless procedure, EndoGastric Solutions. He had suffered from GERD for most of his adult life and experienced all the classic symptoms regularly. After having the TIF procedure performed by Dr. W. Scott Melvin in late 2008, he says his GERD is now completely cured. He adds that, " I have more energy and sleep and breathe better. I don’t clear my throat or cough as much and am not panicked when I don’t have a blister pack of Prilosec or Zantac with me."

quote I feel good about discontinuing PPIs, which I otherwise would have had to take for the rest of my life. The long-term side-effects of having to take PPIs were worrisome. I’m glad that is behind me. quote
