    • Close GERD & Heartburn

      I have tried everything, had all the test and suregery has been recommended.Frightened me. A fairly new procedure became available in 2003 called The Plicator Procedure. The problem is finding a Doctor that knows how to do it, unless you can go to Baylor- Harvard. Type in Plicator Procedure and read aboutit. It is a 20 minute out patient procedure and sounds great. Right now I am scheduled tohave it in Atlata, Georga (8 hours form home) but would loce to hear from anyone that has had it.
