Reaching for antacids has become so routine that most people don't stop to ask why their reflux keeps coming back. 🔄
GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is commonly treated as a stomach acid problem, but the root cause is often far more complex, involving dietary patterns, metabolic dysfunction, gut motility, and autonomic nervous system imbalances.
At Michael Rothman MD, your GERD is evaluated through a functional and metabolic medicine lens, addressing what's driving your symptoms, not just suppressing them.
