An Update Regarding Seasonal Illnesses

To help prevent the spread of seasonal respiratory illnesses, we strongly encourage all visitors to wear a mask while in ambulatory clinics or inpatient units. Surgical masks are available at hospital and clinic entrances. Patients with respiratory illnesses should also wear masks. Thank you for helping protect our patients, staff, and community.

This procedure is performed under general anethesia using an endoscope (a long, thin tube that is placed through your mouth and into your esophagus). This approach does not require incisions. However, this is only suitable for patients who have no - or very small - hiatal hernias.
