Gastric Bypass Surgery: Advanced Weight Loss Solution at Metro Group of Hospitals

Obesity is more than just a cosmetic concern; it is a complex metabolic disease that increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. When traditional methods like diet and exercise fail to yield results, Gastric Bypass Surgery (Bariatric Surgery) emerges as a life-changing solution.

At Metro Group of Hospitals, we offer advanced, minimally invasive Gastric Bypass procedures across our specialized units in Noida, Delhi NCR, Faridabad, Jaipur, Haridwar, and Rewari. Our goal is to help you achieve sustainable weight loss and reclaim your health.

What is Gastric Bypass Surgery?

Gastric Bypass, specifically Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, is considered the “Gold Standard” of weight loss surgery. It is a dual-action procedure that works by:

• Restriction: Reducing the size of the stomach to a small pouch, which limits the amount of food you can eat.
• Malabsorption: Rerouting the small intestine so that the body absorbs fewer calories and nutrients from the food consumed.

At Metro Hospitals, this procedure is performed Laparoscopically (Keyhole Surgery), using tiny incisions, a camera, and specialized instruments, ensuring a safer and faster recovery.

Who is a Candidate for Gastric Bypass?

Our surgical experts recommend Gastric Bypass for individuals who meet specific criteria:

• BMI over 40: Or a BMI over 35 with obesity-related health conditions like Type 2 Diabetes, Sleep Apnea, or Severe Hypertension.
• Failed Weight Loss Attempts: Patients who have tried supervised diet and exercise programs without success.
• Commitment to Lifestyle Change: Candidates must be willing to make permanent changes to their eating habits and activity levels.

Benefits of Gastric Bypass Surgery

The impact of Gastric Bypass goes far beyond weight loss:

Massive Weight Loss: Most patients lose 60% to 80% of their excess body weight within the first year.

Heart Health: Significant reduction in blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

Joint Relief: Drastic reduction in pain for patients with knee and back issues.

Improved Quality of Life: Enhanced mobility, energy levels, and self-confidence.

The Procedure and Recovery

Hospital Stay: Most patients stay in the hospital for 2–3 days.

Dietary Progression: Patients start with a liquid diet, moving to pureed foods, and eventually solid food over several weeks.

Long-Term Follow-up: Regular check-ups at your local Metro Hospital unit ensure that you are meeting your nutritional goals and losing weight healthily.
