Our Roux-en-Y surgery is performed laparoscopically, surgeons use specialized tools which are introduced in small incisions. They proceed to divide the upper stomach in two parts and connecting the small pouch left of the upper stomach to the intestines using a “Roux-en-Y” intestinal limb. Our procedure prevents bile from entering the upper portion of the stomach and allows digestion to bypass the remaining stomach portion and the first segment of the small intestines.

The surgery will reconfigure the patient’s digestive tract, giving them a feeling of fullness, even when eating small amounts of food. Because the tract bypasses the part of the intestines where calcium and iron are absorbed into the bloodstream. Patients still receive the nutritional benefits of the food they eat.

However, at Angeles Hospital Mexico our doctors and nurses work tirelessly to mitigate any type of risks and have performed over 5,000 successful procedures and are lead by Dr. Lopez Corvala of the top-ten weight-loss surgeons in the world who has extensive training in both US and Mexico

Short-term complications include:

  • Gastrointestinal hemorrhage
  • Respiratory problems

*All risks are supported by our impeccable reputation and decades of experience. You can feel safe that our doctors are the best and will work tirelessly in order to minimize any potential negative outcome.

For our gastric bypass patients, half of their weight-loss will happen in the first six months after their surgery and they can continue their weight-loss surgery up to the second year after the procedure. With a Roux-en-Y surgery the results are faster and the weight loss is greater, making this a great benefit for patients who are chronically obese.
