Acid Reflux Zoom Meeting

Join us for our Zoom Meeting on Wednesday 24th November 2021 at 15:00 – 16:00.

Our speaker is Jordan Haworth, from the Functional Gut Clinic, who will be talking about “It’s time to tackle acid reflux”.

Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is a chronic condition that affects around 1 in 7 people in the UK. GORD can lead to troublesome symptoms and complications including an increased risk of oesophageal cancer. This presentation talks about the causes and consequences of GORD, as well as the latest tests and treatments.
