FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about acid reflux treatment in Dubai? We answer the most common ones below.
Acid reflux is when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus causing heartburn. GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) is the chronic, severe form occurring more than twice a week — requiring medical treatment to prevent long-term complications.
You may be a candidate if you have a confirmed GERD diagnosis with inadequate response to medication, or prefer a drug-free solution. Dr. Kamal will evaluate via endoscopy and pH testing to determine the best treatment for your specific case.
Most patients return home within 1–2 days. You can typically return to light work within 1–2 weeks and resume normal activities within 4–6 weeks. The keyhole approach significantly reduces recovery time versus open surgery.
Dr. Kamal works with major insurance providers in the UAE. Please contact our clinic directly with your insurance details to confirm coverage. We can also assist with insurance pre-authorisation.
Dr. Kamal will review your medical history and symptoms, recommend appropriate diagnostic tests (endoscopy, pH monitoring, manometry), and discuss all available treatment options — from lifestyle changes to minimally invasive surgery.
TIF is effective for mild to moderate GERD with a small hiatal hernia. Surgical options like LINX or Laparoscopic Fundoplication typically provide more durable results for severe GERD, while TIF offers a no-incision alternative with faster recovery.
