This month’s On the Spot focuses on topics in esophageal disorders, including long-term use of proton pump inhibitors for reflux disease, ablative therapies for Barrett’s esophagus, laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM) and peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for achalasia, and the two-food elimination diet as a first-line treatment for patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). I would like to thank all of the contributors for their efforts. Feel free to email me at
