Heartburn Center

If you sometimes experience a burning sensation in your chest or have a sour taste in your mouth, you could be suffering from heartburn. While heartburn is a common illness - affecting more than 60 million Americans - it can also be a symptom of a more serious condition called gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD. Through our Heartburn Center, we can help your physician diagnose heartburn or reflux disease and determine the best treatment for you.

Our Heartburn Center offers non-invasive testing for diagnosing heartburn and reflux disease, using cutting-edge technology. While you don't have to have a physician's referral to be tested, we do request that you complete a free screening questionnaire to determine if you are a candidate for services.

You may want to complete the free screening questionnaire if you are experiencing these symptoms:

  • chest pain, especially at night when lying down
  • difficulty swallowing
  • coughing, wheezing, asthma, hoarseness or sore throat
  • regurgitated blood
  • stool that's black
