Acid Reflux & GERD care in Palm Jumeirah, done properly.
Palm Jumeirah residents living with acid reflux & gerd deserve more than a 6-minute slot and a prescription. Heartburn, regurgitation, chronic cough or a lump in the throat — most reflux can be controlled without a lifetime of PPIs. We investigate H. pylori, adjust treatment properly and refer for endoscopy when needed.

FAQs from Palm Jumeirah patients

Yes. We manage acid reflux & gerd for Palm Jumeirah residents from our Business Bay clinic at Churchill Executive Towers, or via home visits across Palm Jumeirah. Most patients are seen within 60–90 minutes for an urgent issue and within 24 hours for a planned review.
Who will be looking after me?+
A British-trained family medicine GP with experience managing acid reflux & gerd long-term. The same doctor sees you each time — not a different face every visit — which matters enormously for a chronic condition.
What tests will you run for my acid reflux & gerd?+
Typically: H. pylori antigen, FBC & ferritin, Coeliac antibodies. Blood draws can be done at our Business Bay clinic, at our nurse stations, or at your home in Palm Jumeirah — your doctor personally interprets and calls you to walk through the results.
Should I be on a PPI long-term?+
Not necessarily. Many patients can step down or stop with the right lifestyle work and H. pylori eradication. We review properly rather than just repeat the prescription.
When do you refer for endoscopy?+
Alarm symptoms (weight loss, swallowing difficulty, anaemia, persistent vomiting, or failure to respond to 8 weeks of treatment in patients over 55) trigger a same-week gastroenterology referral.
Is this covered by insurance?+
Most major UAE and international insurers reimburse for acid reflux & gerd consultations and the associated bloods. Insurance reimbursement support available — we issue a fully coded invoice and supporting documentation for your claim.
