TIF is a surgical treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Performed in clinic, this minimally invasive procedure is performed from inside the patient's stomach without incisions. This procedure is just as successful as other anti-reflux surgery procedures, but is less invasive, and doesn't limit other treatment options. A patient may opt to have the TIF procedure performed if they are unhappy with the side effects from their current GERD medication, or are looking for another treatment option in general.
