Condition

Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

Stomach contents flow back into the oesophagus, causing heartburn and regurgitation. Most people improve with lifestyle changes and acid-suppressing medicine; endoscopy is needed for difficulty swallowing, weight loss, bleeding or persistent symptoms.

Choose a clinic day and session online in under a minute, or reach the clinic directly.

When to see a doctor

Warning signs not to ignore.

Book a consultation soon — or seek emergency care for heavy bleeding — if you notice:

  • Any bleeding: vomiting blood, black or bloody stools
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Iron-deficiency anaemia without a clear cause
  • Difficulty or pain when swallowing
  • Recurrent vomiting
  • Symptoms that persist despite treatment, or a family history of digestive cancer

Questions

What patients often ask.

How do I book an appointment?

Book online from the booking page by choosing the clinic, day and session; you will receive a booking reference. You can also contact the clinic by phone or WhatsApp.

What should I bring to my first visit?

Bring previous reports, lab tests and imaging, plus a list of your current medicines — especially blood thinners and diabetes medication — and any earlier endoscopy reports.

When should I see a gastroenterologist?

Do not ignore warning signs: any digestive bleeding, unexplained weight loss, iron-deficiency anaemia without a clear cause, difficulty swallowing, recurrent vomiting, chronic constipation or diarrhoea, or a family history of digestive cancers.
