Bariatric Procedures in Mérida

Dr. Montserrat Monroy offers the bariatric and metabolic procedures with the strongest scientific evidence, all performed laparoscopically (minimally invasive) at Hospital Humaniti in Mérida, Yucatán.

Each procedure is selected based on the patient's BMI, associated medical conditions, anatomy, surgical history, and health goals. During the initial consultation, Dr. Monroy evaluates your specific case to recommend the safest and most effective option.

Available Procedures

• Gastric Sleeve: reduces stomach size by approximately 80%, limiting food intake and modifying hunger and satiety hormones. The most performed bariatric procedure worldwide.
• Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y): combines gastric restriction with an intestinal bypass that reduces calorie absorption. Especially effective for type 2 diabetes and gastroesophageal reflux.
• Mini Gastric Bypass (OAGB): a variant of bypass with a single intestinal connection, offering similar results with a simplified technique.
• Metabolic Surgery: focused on improving metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, even in patients with BMI below 35.
• Revision Surgery: correction or conversion of previous bariatric surgeries that did not achieve expected results.
