RefluxUK specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of all aspects of reflux, including LPR. Our aim is to allow patients to get back to their daily lives, whether that is at work, or with family and friends.
Conventional reflux tests measure only acid in the oesophagus and so often come back negative. This is because the refluxate causing the LPR symptom is often non-acidic. So RefluxUK use a comprehensive set of tests tailored to individual patients. These tests include high-resolution manometry and impedance/pH monitoring, which measures the presence of both gas and liquid in the oesophagus. It can also tell us the level of acidic and non-acidic reflux at the bottom and top of the oesophagus, near the throat. Using these tests as well as others, we aim to get a definitive diagnosis.
Our team includes specialist consultant laryngologists as well as physiologists and reflux surgeons who work together to establish a definitive treatment plan. We believe this teamwork helps patients get the best results.
For effective diagnosis and expert treatment, RefluxUK is the choice for LPR patients.
