The Pitfalls in Diagnosing GERD

Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is a common condition that affects between 10% and 30% of people in developed countries. There can be a range of complications from haemorrhage to stricture to Barrett's oesophagus. So it is important that we get the diagnosis and management of this condition right. In this BMJ Best Practice podcast on GORD, Kieran Walsh talks with Dr Andres Carrion, Associate Professor of Clinical Medicine at The Division of Digestive Health and Liver Diseases in University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.
