If you’re living with daily heartburn, throat irritation, or a constant need for antacids, it might be more than just something you ate. Chronic acid reflux, or GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease), can interfere with meals, sleep, and even your ability to focus.
And while medications help some people, they don’t always provide lasting relief—or address the root cause.
Our team at Angelina Surgical Associates is dedicated to treating heartburn, acid reflux, and other conditions affecting the gastro-esophageal area. With extensive experience in advanced, minimally invasive procedures, including Nissen fundoplication and TIF®, we’ve helped hundreds of patients across Lufkin, Nacogdoches, and the greater East Texas region find lasting relief from GERD.
Chronic GERD can sometimes lead to a condition called Barrett’s esophagus (BE), which increases the risk of developing esophageal cancer. That can be a heavy concern, but you don’t have to face it without clarity.
At Angelina Surgical Associates, we offer TissueCypher®, a non-invasive, AI-powered test that looks deep into your esophageal tissue to assess your personal risk of cancer progression. If our team determines you have BE, this test can help guide the next steps offering you and your doctor real answers, not just possibilities.
The goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and a personalized plan you can trust.
Acid reflux, or GERD, isn’t just heartburn. It can show up in less obvious ways that often go overlooked. Common symptoms include:
If these symptoms sound familiar, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to live with them. Our team in Lufkin and East Texas is here to help you get answers and lasting relief.
Don’t ignore the signs — schedule a consultation today and take the first step toward lasting relief.
