RefluxUK aims to diagnose and treat patients who suffer from reflux symptoms to let them get back to their daily lives

RefluxUK is the country’s largest and most specialised reflux centre, which treats every patient as an individual and bases all decisions on our patient’s history and wishes, diagnostic test results and the latest, evidence-based research.

So many patients in the UK with reflux symptoms are misdiagnosed and mistreated. Did you know?

  • Around 20-30% of the UK population suffer from gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and an even greater portion (up to 40%) suffer from moderate or severe reflux symptoms.
  • 30% of patients with GERD do not respond well to standard medications such as proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs like Omeprazole).
  • 60% of GERD patients have non-acidic symptoms, which will not be alleviated by PPIs.

How RefluxUK Can Help

At RefluxUK, we see many patients who have experienced life-altering symptoms for years, with little or no relief from medications, and no offer to be treated through other methods. Many patients have not had a formal diagnosis of reflux disease from diagnostic tests (suggested by international guidelines); many may be experiencing reflux-like symptoms but do not have reflux disease. In these patients, the treatment they are offered will not be effective. Likewise, many patients that do have GERD do not respond to standard treatments and have not been offered all treatment options available.

RefluxUK aims to provide answers to your problems and endeavour to find bespoke, holistic solutions to all patients experiencing reflux symptoms.
