2 DaysThe GERD X device is a minimally invasive endoscopic tool designed to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) without incisions. It works by reshaping and strengthening the lower esophageal valve to stop acid from flowing back into the esophagus.
Patients with chronic heartburn, regurgitation, or chest discomfort who do not respond well to medication are ideal candidates. GERD X is especially suitable for those who prefer non-surgical options and have no significant hiatal hernia.
Using a flexible endoscope and the GERD X device, the doctor creates tiny folds or plications in the tissue at the junction of the stomach and esophagus. This restores valve function, reducing acid reflux while preserving normal digestion.

In most cases, the entire procedure takes 30–60 minutes. Patients are usually observed for a few hours and go home the same day. Recovery is fast, and most can return to routine activities within 24–48 hours.
The procedure is considered safe and effective, but as with any intervention, minor risks exist, including temporary sore throat, mild discomfort, or rare complications like bleeding or difficulty swallowing. These are usually short-term and manageable.
After the GERD X procedure, patients follow a liquid-to-soft diet for a few days. Long-term, most report significant reduction in reflux symptoms, reduced dependence on acid blockers, and improved quality of life. Lifestyle changes and follow-ups help sustain results.
