.@VUMC_GI researchers, including Rishi Naik, MD, MSCI, FACG, have linked achalasia to active varicella zoster virus in the esophagus, opening the door to antiviral treatment. A Phase 3 trial is underway to test whether a shingles medication brings relief to patients. discoveries.vanderbilthealth.com/2025/01/is-a-c…

Thank you to our amazing patients who are giving remarkable insight into this rare disease. We will personalize your achalasia care at Vanderbilt and the word cure is closer than ever Dan Patel, MD and #MikeVaezi. @VUMC_GI Vanderbilt University Medical Center
