"When it came time to choose between the Nissen or the TIF® procedure, I decided that the TIF procedure was less invasive and the better choice for me."

The evolution of reflux surgery leads to the TIF procedure.
The TIF procedure eliminates the need for incisions and cutting by using the natural pathway of the mouth and esophagus to access the esophageal valve and stomach. The device enables the same results as traditional surgery without the complications and side effects.
Physicians appreciate how the device used in the TIF procedure helps them consistently reproduce reliable results customized to each patient. And TIF patients experience a fast recovery and long-term relief from reflux. Watch Dr. Barnes explain the evolution of reflux surgery and the benefits of the TIF procedure.

“Patients choose the TIF procedure because it is effective at treating the symptoms of acid reflux, and it has an excellent safety profile, one that is much better than surgical alternatives.”
