What Patients Are Saying About cTIF

“This is the best money I’ve ever spent! I lived with acid reflux problems since I was a boy. Things got worse in my 50’s when reflux interfered with my sleep. Medications did not help. After the cTIF procedure I have no problems now. Dr. Barnes and Dr. Kandiah and their team were all fantastic!”

Scott, Savannah, Ga

“The results of this procedure have been incredible. For four years I was living with daily severe acid reflux problems. Extreme heartburn affected my sleeping. I was taking over-the-counter antacids and medications just to get through each day. Since the cTIF, I have not had a single episode of heartburn and I’m sleeping better than ever.”

Sierra, Savannah, Ga

“This procedure was a blessing. Acid reflux medications were not working. I would get really bad reflux anytime I would try to lay down. After the procedure, I’m back to normal. I can eat anything I want now and not worry about reflux. The staff is so friendly and answered all of my questions and always returned phone calls.”
