Introducing the new Inova Mount Vernon Hospital Heartburn Treatment Program

Is It Just Heartburn?

Everyone experiences a little heartburn or indigestion sometimes. But for a surprising number of people, this problem is much more than an occasional nuisance. It is painful, affects sleep and the ability to enjoy food, and can diminish your quality of life. For an estimated 20–30 percent of American adults, the real problem may be gastroesophageal reflux disease, also known as GERD.

Inova Mount Vernon Hospital is proud to announce its new Heartburn Treatment Program to provide prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment for GERD and related digestion problems.
