Spire Tunbridge Wells Hospital, Kent - Linx Reflux Management System is now available

Linx® Reflux Management System

Spire Tunbridge Wells Hospital has successfully completed its first few cases of the Linx® procedure, offering patients the latest treatment for Chronic Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD)

What is Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD)?

Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD) also known as GERD, is a chronic, often progressive condition resulting from a weak Lower Oesophageal Sphincter (LOS) allowing acid and bile to flow back or ‘reflux’ from the stomach into the oesophagus.

If you are still experiencing symptoms of reflux despite taking regular medication the LInx® System may be a good choice for you. Please call 01892 741150 for further information or make an online enquiry.
