Gastric Bypass FAQ

Q: What procedure is right for me?
A: Every case is different and it is important to discuss your options with your doctor.

Q: Are these the only two options?
A: Defiantly not. There are many weight loss procedures to deal with morbid obesity. Some, but not all, of the procedures are the Roux en-Y (Proximal), Roux en-Y (Distal), and the Loop Gastric Bypass.

Q: What does a Gastric Bypass do?
A: Gastric Bypass reduces the stomach's size by over 90% by dividing the stomach into two sections. Once section is much smaller than the other and this allows a "full feeling" after eating only a small amount of food. It is important to note that after Gastric Bypass Surgery, eating habits may need to be altered to avoid being uncomfortable and/or gaining weight back.

A: Simple! Fill out the form on this page and we will send you out an information packet all about Gastric Bypass surgery.
