Abstract

Symptoms potentially attributable to gastroesophageal reflux disease are among those most commonly reported to primary care providers in the outpatient setting. In this review, we discuss clinical approaches to the evaluation and management of these symptoms, including proton pump inhibitor trials as well as specific indications or clinical settings that warrant referral to Gastroenterology specialists.
