A world-class surgical team treats common and complex disorders of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. We offer innovative treatments for cancer of the stomach and esophagus, oesophageal strictures, hiatal hernias, swallowing problems, and more. Most of these operations can be done via Laparoscopic or Robotic methods, thus causing minimal scars and pain and offering, early recovery and early return to work.
We care for routine and rare conditions of the stomach, esophagus, and small bowel, including:
- Barrett’s esophagus.
- Complications of bariatric and anti-reflux surgery.
- A gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).
- Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD, GERD), including heartburn and acid reflux.
- Hiatal hernia.
- Oesophageal strictures.
- Stomach cancer and oesophageal cancer.
- Stomach ulcers and peptic ulcers.
- Swallowing problems, including achalasia and dysphagia.
Our upper GI surgeries include:
- Gastrectomy: We may remove part or all of your stomach to treat cancer (including GIST), or severe stomach ulcers.
- Hiatal hernia surgery: We use open, laparoscopic, or robotic surgery to repair simple and complex hiatal hernias. Our surgeons have experience treating large or recurrent hernias causing chronic acid reflux and GORD.
- Nissen fundoplication: Also called anti-reflux surgery, this minimally invasive procedure wraps part of the stomach around the lower esophagus to prevent stomach acid from entering the esophagus.
- Oesophagectomy: We may remove part or all of your esophagus to treat oesophageal cancer.
- Small bowel resection: We may do a small bowel resection (removing part of the small intestine) for cancer, GIST, severe IBD, or intestinal blockages.
