Conditions We Treat

Our clinic specialises in the treatment of acid reflux and obesity, offering tailored and effective solutions to help you regain control of your health.

Acid Reflux & GERD

Acid Reflux & GERD can cause heartburn, regurgitation, and chest pain. Left untreated, GERD can lead to more serious complications such as oesophageal damage.

Obesity

Obesity can significantly impact your health and daily life. If you're struggling with obesity, you may be at risk for serious conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and joint problems.

We ensure that every patient receives personalised care from diagnosis to recovery.

Multidisciplinary Approach

Our diverse team consists of an upper gastrointestinal and bariatric surgeon, a dietitian, an exercise physiologist, a nurse and a clinic associate to ensure that patients receive seamless and well-rounded care.

Compassionate & Empathetic

We understand the challenges faced by patients struggling with weight loss and chronic acid reflux; and are dedicated to restoring their health and comfort in a supportive environment.

Care Wherever You Are

Focused on your health, committed to your care.

Featured Treatments

The LINX Procedure

Did you know that acid reflux or GERD can be treated permanently?

The LINX System is a ring of titanium beads implanted around the lower oesophageal sphincter to treat GERD by preventing stomach contents from flowing back into the oesophagus, thereby reducing heartburn and regurgitation.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)

Did you know bariatric surgery for weight loss can be minimally invasive?

ESG is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat obesity by reducing the size of the stomach. It works by suturing the stomach into a smaller size, thereby limiting food intake and promoting weight loss without the need for traditional surgery.
