POEM procedures are minimally invasive and used to treat esophageal motility disorders, particularly achalasia. It has comparable results to surgery, which has traditionally been the best way to treat the condition. 

CDLH has served patients in Savannah for more than 30 years. Dr. Mullady joined the practice in 2022 and is committed to bringing new care options to the region, saving patients from having to travel long distances for procedures, according to an Oct. 31 press release. 

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
