About this subspecialty

The Texas Center for Esophageal and Foregut Surgery, a subspecialty within the General and Gastrointestinal Surgery Clinic, diagnoses, treats and manages conditions of the esophagus, stomach and upper intestine in adult patients (18 years and older), including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Barrett’s esophagus, swallowing disorders (achalasia), hiatal hernias and esophageal cancer.

Our team provides specialized surgical care using the latest laparoscopic, robotic and endoscopic technologies for both benign (noncancerous) and malignant (cancerous) conditions. We are dedicated to creating personalized treatment plans that restore digestive function, improve esophageal health, and enhance your quality of life. Preventive services, including routine screenings and examinations, are also available to reduce cancer risk and support early detection.

Our treatment approach

At UT Medicine, we take an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to your care. This means you will benefit from the expertise of multiple specialists across a variety of disciplines caring for you in one place — avoiding the need to schedule multiple appointments with providers at locations all over the city.

UT Medicine is anchored by Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin, where we collaborate with colleagues to apply leading-edge research, diagnostic and treatment techniques to the diagnosis and treatment of your condition. Advanced imaging and lab testing are also available on-site if needed.
