Hiatal Hernia & Acid Reflux Surgery in Guadalajara, Mexico
Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with Dr. Alejandro López. The definitive solution for chronic acid reflux (GERD) and hiatal hernia.
If you take omeprazole daily and still have heartburn, regurgitation, or chronic cough, surgery may be your answer. 90%+ of patients become medication-free after surgery.
What is hiatal hernia surgery?
A hiatal hernia occurs when part of the stomach pushes up through the diaphragm into the chest, weakening the valve that prevents acid reflux.
Laparoscopic fundoplication repositions the stomach, closes the hernia, and rebuilds the valve with your own tissue. It is the definitive treatment — no need to take medication for life.
When do you need surgery?
- ✓ Medication failure: omeprazole or PPIs no longer control symptoms
- ✓ You do not want lifelong medication
- ✓ Documented esophageal damage (esophagitis, Barrett esophagus)
- ✓ Large hernia (>5 cm or paraesophageal)
- ✓ Respiratory complications from reflux (chronic cough, aspiration)
Free your stomach from acid reflux
