If despite taking PPI for 1 year you have symptoms( Don't know whether you are taking them regularly , Taking adequate precautions , what is grading of hiatus ) Next option you have is - Surgery (  Hiatal hernia repair surgery ) Consult a Gastrosurgeon/ Gastroenterologist for that ( He is the specialist for GERD especially when it is refractory / recurrent ) You can consult me in detail over call with all your details
