Our Services
EIA provides expert management of all surgical conditions of the esophagus except cancer, including hiatal hernia, GERD, achalasia, and revision surgeries for prior esophageal operations that have failed or need correction. We aim to guide patients towards optimal solutions for their conditions.
GERD
We offer all available procedures to correct GERD (fundoplication, Linx, TIF Stretta) providing relief from symptoms and the risk of daily medications
Revision Surgery
When surgery fails or new problems arise, revision surgery can be very hazardous. Dr. Smith is one of the most skilled and experienced surgeons in the country in sorting and correcting failed prior operations.
Hiatal Hernia
Successful correction without using mesh is the hallmark of management of hiatal hernia - expert surgeons rarely use mesh for this condition
Achalasia
A rare condition best treated with surgery we offer traditional myotomy and POEM, selecting the best option for your type of achalasia

My ENT recommended Dr. Smith because of his expertise in managing more complicated cases of GERD where LPR is the main issue. My ENT thought my vocal cords and throat where I had radiation therapy for throat cancer was being damaged by GERD. Dr Smith and his team were great.

"Two prior operation had failed. I was miserable. I found Dr. Smith through a Facebook support group. When I contacted his office the staff got me a virtual appointment right away. Dr. Smith immediately understood what I was dealing with, listened to my issues, and after some updated testing knew exactly what the problem was. He did a REDO of my earlier operations. I am so happy. I'm back eating again, and off the reflux medicine. Dr Smith saved my life."

"I was on reflux medicine for years. My GI recommended Linx. I did some online research and found that Dr. Smith helped do some of the research that proved that Linx worked and even presented the device to the FDA when it was approved. Even better, he was right here in Atlanta. He has been using Linx since 2008 and is one of the most experienced Linx surgeons in the country. I'm so glad I found him."
