Why choose UCI Health?
Advanced, minimally invasive treatments
UCI Health is among the few institutions in the nation to offer the TIF® procedure with EsophyX, an incision-less solution to eliminating GERD.
In addition, UCI Health GERD experts pioneered cTIF, a groundbreaking procedure that combines laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF®) — performed in a single session — to correct the root cause of GERD.
We offer other minimally invasive procedures such as Stretta®, LINX® Reflux Management System and laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication to prevent future reflux.
