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.

Acid Reflux / Hiatus Hernia Surgery in Bhakkar by Dr. Shehryar Niazi

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.

Reflux and hiatus hernia care in Bhakkar

Years of night time burning, a cough that clinics keep treating as chest infection, food coming back up when bending: these are the reflux stories heard at Brigadier Shafiq Trust Hospital. Assessment locally decides who needs better tablet treatment and who has a hiatus hernia that deserves repair.

Where laparoscopic fundoplication is indicated, it is performed by the same surgeon who runs the Lahore anti reflux service, without the patient needing to relocate for a week.

Long term tablet users

If you have taken acid tablets daily for years, a review is worthwhile even if you feel controlled. The point is to confirm the diagnosis, check the food pipe and make an informed choice between staying on medicine and a one time repair. Book the visit on +92 318 7801855.

What the operation involves

Laparoscopic fundoplication repairs the hiatus hernia and wraps the top of the stomach around the lower food pipe to rebuild the valve. It is keyhole surgery with a short stay. Patients from the district's towns plan two visits around it: the work up visit and the operation itself, with diet instructions carried home in writing.

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.
