How it works
What to expect
Gastric bypass is one of the most effective weight loss surgeries and can help with acid reflux (GERD). It is also more involved than the gastric sleeve, and it needs lifelong vitamins and follow-up.
Gastric bypass or gastric sleeve? Bypass changes both how much you eat and how much you absorb. The sleeve removes part of the stomach and does not reroute the intestine. In the 10-year SLEEVEPASS trial, reflux-related esophagitis was found in 7% of bypass patients vs 31% of sleeve patients. Our surgeons will recommend one based on your BMI, reflux and health history. About the gastric sleeve.
Am I a candidate?
The 2022 ASMBS and IFSO guidelines recommend bariatric surgery for a BMI of 35 or more, with or without other health problems, and say it should be considered for a BMI of 30 to 34.9 with a metabolic condition such as type 2 diabetes. BMI is only one factor, though.
Recommended regardless of obesity-related conditions.
Considered when you have a metabolic condition, such as type 2 diabetes.
Surgery abroad is usually not advised. Our team can discuss other options.
Diet, exercise and medication haven’t given you the results you need.
You are healthy enough for surgery and anesthesia.
Long-term success depends on your diet, activity, vitamins and follow-up.
Every patient is screened by a team including a physician, dietitian, psychologist and surgeon, who weigh whether the benefits outweigh the risks for you.

Renew Bariatrics patients who had gastric bypass.
“No more heartburn, being able to walk up flights of stairs without my knees hurting, not waking up with back pain daily, being able to be more active, not having as much insecurities.”
“I was very focused into what I had to do so it was somewhat effortless, (meaning not difficult). I knew I had to lose the weight, since my wife had the surgery before I did, i knew the "challenges" I was ready for them.”
“Achievements since undergoing the procedure: can walk without getting out of breath, cross my legs, keep up with my kids, not needing a seat belt extender when flying, more energy, more aware of nutrition in what I eat... the list is endless!”
“Today, since surgery, I am able to walk and move so much better. I don't hurt if I take a walk to the mail box or walk at a special function.”

“Renew has been wonderful. With the bypass, although any procedure hurts, I’m positive in the long run it will be worth it. The facility in TJ is clean and the nurses are very kind.”
“The whole process was extremely smooth and well organized. Dr. Green did my gastric bypass and he did a phenomenal job. The recovery is definitely sore, but I know it’ll be well worth it in the end.”
“Within a couple days I chose my surgery, my doctor, Dr. Green, set my date and got payments arranged. I went for the gastric bypass surgery in December of 2023. The coordinators walked me through every single step of the process.”
“I couldn’t say enough about my visit to Dr. Perez for the gastric bypass. From the ride service to the care in the hospital, every single detail is top notch. I know choosing to have the procedure done in Tijuana is scary, but I can assure you the care will be better than at home.”

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass at Renew Bariatrics is $6,299 all-inclusive, covering your surgeon, anesthesia, pre-op testing, 2 hospital nights, 1 hotel night, transportation, 1 companion, take-home medications and aftercare. Mini gastric bypass is also $6,299. Airfare is not included.
The 2022 ASMBS and IFSO guidelines recommend bariatric surgery for a BMI of 35 or more and say it should be considered for a BMI of 30 to 34.9 with a metabolic condition such as type 2 diabetes. Our surgeons review your full health history before approving you.
According to Mayo Clinic, it may be possible to lose about 70% or more of your excess weight within two years. In the SLEEVEPASS randomized trial, median excess weight loss was still 50.7% ten years after gastric bypass. Your results depend on your starting weight and on your diet, activity and follow-up.
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass uses a small pouch and two connections. Mini gastric bypass, also called one-anastomosis gastric bypass, uses a longer, narrow pouch and one connection. In both, the bypassed stomach stays in place.
The hospital stay after gastric bypass is typically 1 to 2 days. Your Renew package includes 2 hospital nights in a private room and 1 hotel night.
Gastric bypass should be treated as a permanent change. Reversal is uncommon and complex. If your results have changed, our revision options page explains how our surgeons assess you.
