I’m curious about the LINX procedure for GERD. What made your doctor recommend it instead of continuing with medication?

Dr Shanker assessed my condition and discussed the LINX procedure as an option because medication wasn’t controlling my symptoms well enough. I visited Dr Shanker at the Digestive Centre, where I received advice from a Bariatric Surgeon in Singapore. He also explained how LINX uses a small ring of magnetic beads around the lower oesophagus to help prevent stomach acid from flowing back up.
