What is Gastric Bypass Surgery?

Gastric bypass, also called a Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, is a trusted bariatric procedure designed to help patients achieve significant weight loss and better health. The surgery involves creating a small stomach pouch and rerouting part of the small intestine to this pouch. This results in reduced food intake and decreased calorie absorption. It also positively affects gut hormones, helping to reduce hunger and improve blood sugar levels.

Beyond weight loss, gastric bypass provides additional health benefits by addressing conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, acid reflux, and sleep apnea. With minimally invasive techniques now widely used, the procedure offers a safe and effective solution for managing obesity while improving overall health and well-being.

Helping You Eat Less and Stay Healthy

At Slim Surgical, we focus on advanced, minimally invasive weight loss procedures tailored to improve health and quality of life. Gastric bypass surgery, also known as a Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, is one of our key offerings, performed by a board-certified surgeon with precision and care.

STEP
1

Stomach Reduction

Our surgeons create a small stomach pouch, roughly the size of an egg, by dividing the stomach. This reduces food intake, helping control portions and supporting sustainable weight loss.

STEP
2

Intestinal Rerouting

The small stomach pouch is connected to the lower portion of the small intestine, bypassing a significant section of the digestive tract. This limits calorie absorption and supports improvements in conditions like diabetes and hypertension.

STEP
3

Hormonal Benefits

The procedure also triggers hormonal changes that reduce hunger and increase feelings of fullness. These changes promote fewer cravings, better appetite control, and improved blood sugar levels, all critical for long-term success.
