Welcome to the oldest and largest site devoted to pediatric GERD. The Pediatric / Adolescent Gastroesophageal Reflux Association (PAGER) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides information and support to parents and children (infants to teens) dealing with Gastroesophageal Reflux (GER). We have been helping you and your child deal with acid reflux and related disorders since 1992.

Be sure to check out the FORUM section where you can post messages to other parents and <B>search the 100,000 messages</B> already posted.

Has PAGER helped you? What value would you place on these services?

  • Talking to a volunteer and creating a list of questions for your doctor.
  • Educational materials for yourself or anyone involved in your child’s care.
  • Help identifying trigger foods, formula and breastfeeding questions.
  • Discussion boards where you can talk with other parents dealing with the same issues.
  • Tips on coping with reflux-related sleep issues.
  • A warm line and e-mail access to our volunteers.
  • A website and newsletter devoted to bringing you the most up-to-date reflux information.
PAGER provides all of these things and much more at no cost to our members. Since we do not charge a membership fee, we rely heavily on the generosity of our members and their friends to offset our operating costs. The more generous our members are, the more services we can provide in the future.
Corporate support is wonderful, but the IRS requires that 33% of our donations come from our members and their friends.

Fundraising for PAGER
We created a new document listing fun ways to raise funds for PAGER. Some are even easy: do you know a musician who would do a "house concert" in your backyard?
