Obesity is a common and complex condition in today’s world where over 30% of the population of the US are carrying excess weight to the point where it can become life-threatening. At The Advanced Gastro Surgery, we perform weight-reduction procedures: duodenal switch surgery which drastically limits the amount of food you can eat, and the sleeve gastrectomy which reduces the stomach up to 85% of its normal size removing the curvature of the belly. The most common surgery is gastric bypass where we create a pouch in the small intestine. It reduces the stomach to a diameter of about 1.5cm and reduces the amount of food you can eat.

Our clinic is located in the hotel zone of the Puerto Vallarta Marina and is equipped with state-of-the-art technology. We use most modern techniques available, meeting the highest standards of quality, service and safety for all our clients and as an added bonus, we offer stunning views of the Ocean and the marina.

Dr Sergio Arturo del Hoyo Galván and his team at The Advanced Gastro Clinic welcome enquiries and look forward to assisting you in a new way of life, helping you to restore your self-confidence and extend your life expectancy. Don’t hesitate to get in touch.
