What is a Gastric Bypass?

See how it works

Performed via keyhole surgery, a gastric bypass reduces the size of the stomach and connects it directly to the small intestine, bypassing part of the digestive tract. The smaller stomach capacity leads to feeling full faster, while bypassing a section of the digestive tract limits food absorption. These combined effects lead to significant weight loss.

FAQ

How do I qualify for free bariatric surgery?

If you are interested in getting a free surgery done from a public health facility, you should consult your GP. They should be able to direct you to a Medicare funded bariatric facility (Obesity and Metabolic clinics) where there are waiting times and certain qualifying criteria that must be met.

If you are a holder of a Private Health Insurance, weight loss surgery may be covered under your insurance. Depending on your cover, you may still incur some out-of-pocket expenses. Please check with your private health insurance provider for more details.

At Healthy weight Australia, We do not provide any free surgeries or procedures at any of our locations.
