Abrazo Scottsdale Campus was recently named a bariatric surgery center of excellence by OptumHealth Care Solutions. Hospitals earn this designation by meeting certain measures of clinical quality, cost efficiency, and access to comprehensive bariatric (weight loss) services.
Gastric bypass surgery is one of the bariatric surgeries performed to help patients lose weight. The gastric bypass surgery assists with weight loss by creating a much smaller stomach pouch, and by changing the pathway of food through the gastrointestinal tract that changes absorption patterns and alters hormones and peptides that are involved with hunger, satiety, and metabolism.
