ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Silent reflux (LPR) and acid reflux symptoms don't always start in the stomach. In this episode, I'm joined by endoscopy expert Nick Tsaclas to talk about the hidden causes of chronic throat clearing, the feeling of a lump in your throat, the inlet patch, and why esophageal screening may be more important than you think. 🤔
