Overview of Gastric Bypass Surgery

Gastric bypass surgery is a bariatric procedure designed to help patients achieve significant and long-term weight loss. The surgery reduces the size of the stomach and reroutes part of the digestive system to limit calorie absorption.

This procedure is often recommended for patients with severe obesity who have not achieved successful weight loss through diet, exercise or medication.

How Gastric Bypass Surgery Works

During gastric bypass surgery, the stomach is divided to create a smaller pouch. The small intestine is then connected to this pouch, allowing food to bypass a portion of the stomach and intestine.

This process helps reduce calorie absorption and limits food intake, leading to effective weight loss.
