Common Procedures
Gallstones
Gallstones or gallbladder disease can cause painful digestive problems. Gallbladder disease is sometimes treated with lifestyle changes and medication. If surgery is required, the surgeons of Holland Hospital specialize in minimally invasive laparoscopy, including da Vinci robotic assisted single-site surgery which may mean faster recovery and little to no incision scars.
GERD
Nearly 20% of the US population suffers from acid reflux, medically known as GERD, or gastroesophageal reflux disease. GERD causes stomach acid to back up in the esophagus, resulting in regurgitation, coughing and chest pain. If left untreated, GERD can also cause more serious conditions that may lead to esophageal cancer.
