GERD Demystified: PPIs, TIF, and Shared Decision-Making
Thursday, 4 June, 2026
In this episode of All Fore Guts, Ben Elsbernd, MD, is joined by Josh Sloan, MD, and Jacob Moremen, MD, for a practical discussion on the evaluation and management of GERD, patient concerns around long-term PPI use, and the evolving role of procedural options such as TIF and CTIF. The conversation explores how clinicians can approach shared decision-making when patients are hesitant about PPIs, including how to communicate the strengths and limitations of available data while respecting patient preferences. Together, they highlight the value of collaborative care, realistic patient expectations, and thoughtful follow-up in optimizing outcomes for patients with foregut disease.
