Primary care doctors are often the first to diagnose GERD by taking a detailed history of symptoms according to the Mayo Clinic.

If the symptoms are severe enough a primary care doctor may refer a patient to a gastroenterologist who may order further imaging tests such as an Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD.

Doctors may also order a oebarium swallow where patients literally swallow a barium-laced drink

Each X-ray allows doctors to track the barium as the person digests the drink. By using a catheter running from the nose down to the throat doctors may also use a probe to monitor the amount of stomach acid in the esophagus in a technique called esophageal ph monitoring.
