The Institute of Esophageal and Reflux Surgery (IERS) is a specialized medical center dedicated to the diagnosis and surgical treatment of disorders affecting the esophagus and gastroesophageal junction. Based in Colorado, the institute is a recognized leader in minimally invasive procedures for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), hiatal hernias, and achalasia. IERS is particularly noted for its high volume and expertise with the LINX Reflux Management System, as well as traditional laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication.
