Gastric Bypass Surgery

In a U.S. hospital gastric bypass surgery costs about $25,000, although prices can be much higher. Your estimated total treatment and travel costs for gastric bypass surgery at Angeles Health are approximately $13,500.

 

The price of surgery should of course not be the prime consideration in choosing where to have your gastric bypass procedure. Angeles Health features modern facilities and the newest technology. Our weight-loss surgery team is among the most experienced in the world. At Angeles Health patients work with expert physicians, nutritionists and nurses dedicated to making their experience as comfortable, supported and secure as possible.

 

Everyone at Angeles Health works to see that patients get the treatment necessary for surgical success and that they leave the hospital fully prepared to fulfill their long-term weight-loss goals. Other gastric bypass medical travel providers might be less expensive. However, Angeles Health provides gastric bypass medical travel patients with a fully equipped, state-of-the-art private hospital for this life changing treatment with all the benefits that entails, including the immediate, on-hand availability of specialty and emergency services that all surgical patients should expect from high quality medical travel: An on-site staff of cardiac anesthesiologists, internists and emergency/critical care services.

 

Typically, half of a gastric bypass patient's weight loss occurs in the first six months after surgery, with weight loss peaking at 18-24 months. Data indicates that gastric bypass is effective at improving and even curing a number of obesity-related co-morbidities, including adult onset diabetes (also called insulin resistant diabetes), hypertension, high cholesterol, arthritis, venous stasis disease, bladder incontinence, liver disease, certain types of headaches, heartburn, sleep apnea and many other disorders. Furthermore, gastric bypass results in more rapid, greater and sustained weight loss for many patients previously chronically obese, resulting in marked improvements in quality of life.
