Treating Obesity with Bariatric Surgery
In 2022, over 243,000 people underwent bariatric surgery. This number is slightly lower than 263,000 in 2021, an all-time high. One contributing factor to this decline could be the explosion in the use of weight loss medications and the post-pandemic economy. Of course, the number of procedures was lower in 2020 due to COVID.
Roughly one million Americans cross the border every year for healthcare, including gastrointestinal (GI) operations. Many patients without insurance can expect to save 40% to 70% on these treatments by going to Mexico with MBC.
Popularity of Weight Loss Procedures
More and more patients are choosing Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG) due to its substantial weight loss, low complication rate, and ease of conversion to other procedures. An estimated 61.4% of all weight loss surgeries performed are gastric sleeves.
At Mexico Bariatric Center®, VSG accounts for 80%, Bypass accounts for 16%, and DS accounts for 2% of total surgeries.[2022]
Single-anastomosis versions of root gastric bypass and biliopancreatic diversion with a duodenal switch, i.e., mini gastric bypass, SASi-S, and SADi-S (single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy), are gaining popularity. These updated procedures yield great weight loss and are considered diabetes operations.
