What is Gastric Bypass Surgery?
Gastric Bypass Surgery, also known as Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB), is considered the "gold standard" of bariatric surgery. This procedure combines both restrictive and malabsorptive techniques to achieve significant, long-lasting weight loss and resolution of obesity-related health conditions.
During the procedure, your surgeon creates a small stomach pouch (about the size of an egg) and connects it directly to the small intestine, bypassing a large portion of the stomach and the first section of the small intestine. This dual approach reduces the amount of food you can eat and decreases calorie and nutrient absorption.
Maximum Weight Loss
Typically results in 70-80% excess weight loss, the highest among bariatric procedures.
Diabetes Resolution
Up to 80% of type 2 diabetes patients experience complete remission.
Proven Track Record
Decades of research confirm long-term effectiveness and safety.
Metabolic Benefits
Improves cholesterol, blood pressure, sleep apnea, and joint pain.
Life-Changing Health Benefits
Gastric bypass surgery offers profound improvements that extend far beyond weight loss
Type 2 Diabetes Resolution
Up to 80% of patients experience complete remission of Type 2 diabetes, often within weeks of surgery. Many patients eliminate the need for diabetes medications entirely.
Improved Heart Health
Significant reduction in high blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and risk of heart disease. Many patients reduce or eliminate blood pressure medications.
Sleep Apnea Relief
Over 85% of patients see improvement or complete resolution of obstructive sleep apnea, leading to better sleep quality and daytime energy.
Joint Pain Relief
Dramatic reduction in knee, back, and hip pain. Every pound lost removes 4 pounds of pressure from your knees, improving mobility and quality of life.
Enhanced Mental Wellbeing
Improved self-esteem, reduced depression and anxiety, and a more positive outlook on life as you regain control of your health.
Improved Fertility
Weight loss can restore hormonal balance and improve fertility in both men and women, making it easier to conceive and have a healthy pregnancy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the most common questions about gastric bypass surgery
You may be a candidate if you have a BMI of 35 or higher, or a BMI of 30+ with obesity-related health conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure. You should have tried traditional weight loss methods without long-term success. Our team evaluates each patient individually to ensure surgery is the right choice.
You'll follow a progressive diet: clear liquids for the first few days, then full liquids for 2 weeks, pureed foods for 2 weeks, soft foods for 2 weeks, and finally regular foods. Long-term, you'll eat smaller portions (3-4 oz per meal) and focus on protein-rich foods. Most patients can eat a wide variety of foods, but some may have difficulty with very dense meats, bread, or rice.
Yes, when performed by experienced, board-certified surgeons like Dr. Quinones. Our facility meets international standards and uses the same equipment as US hospitals. Dr. Quinones has performed over 10,000 bariatric procedures with a complication rate lower than the US average. We provide 24/7 care and have emergency protocols in place.
No, gastric bypass surgery is permanent. The procedure creates a new stomach pouch and reroutes your intestines. This is why it's important to be fully committed to the lifestyle changes required for success. The bypass is considered the most effective long-term weight loss solution.
The majority of our patients do not require skin removal surgery. Factors like age, amount of weight lost, genetics, and skin elasticity all play a role. Younger patients and those who lose weight gradually tend to have better skin retraction. Exercise and staying hydrated can help improve skin elasticity during your weight loss journey.
