A Comprehensive Guide to Your Gastric Bypass Surgery Journey in Mumbai

Gastric Bypass, also known as Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, is considered the 'gold standard' of weight loss surgery. The procedure works by creating a small stomach pouch and re-routing a section of the small intestine directly to this pouch. This dual approach restricts food intake and reduces the absorption of calories and nutrients, leading to significant weight loss.

The primary benefits include dramatic long-term weight loss, remission or improvement of obesity-related conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea. Recovery typically involves a hospital stay of 2-4 days, followed by a few weeks of rest. The success rate is exceptionally high, with most patients losing 60-80% of their excess body weight within 12 to 18 months post-surgery, provided they adhere to the recommended dietary and lifestyle changes.
