Services

Lap-Band Surgery

Lap-Band surgery creates a smaller stomach pouch using an adjustable silicone band to promote portion control. This minimally invasive procedure offers reversible, adjustable weight loss with average recovery times under two weeks. Patients benefit from Dr. Davtyan's extensive experience as one of the first surgeons in California to perform outpatient Lap-Band procedures.

Gastric Balloon

Gastric balloon systems like Orbera and Obalon provide non-surgical weight loss through temporary stomach volume reduction. These FDA-approved devices remain in place for six months while patients develop healthier eating habits. Our practice offers both endoscopic and swallowable balloon options with personalized dietary support programs.

Gastric Sleeve

Gastric sleeve surgery permanently reduces stomach size to limit food intake while lowering hunger hormone production. This laparoscopic procedure typically results in 50-70% excess weight loss over 12-18 months. Our team provides comprehensive evaluation and post-operative care to maximize long-term success.

Post-Weight Loss Care

After significant weight loss, we offer body contouring procedures including tummy tucks, arm lifts, and thigh lifts to remove excess skin. These cosmetic enhancements help patients achieve their desired appearance while improving comfort and mobility through surgical precision.

Nutritional Counseling

Our comprehensive nutritional programs guide patients through pre- and post-operative dietary transitions. Certified professionals develop personalized meal plans focusing on protein-rich nutrition, vitamin supplementation, and sustainable eating habits to maintain weight loss and optimize health outcomes.

I was hovering 300 lb before I decided to change my life. I decided to have Lap band surgery with Dr. David Davtyan because I've seen his commercials at a bar one night, and I just had to call him for a free weight loss consultation. After my surgery in as little as 2 weeks I've already lost 31 lbs and I absolutely feel much happier. I even have a better outlook on life and I'm no longer yo-yoing with my weight which is a relief.

My shirt sizes have gone down and pant sizes. I'm on my last loop of my belt. I can't wait to lose more weight which I'm striving for. I feel very confident with Dr. Davtyan's excellent guidance. Thank You Doctor and staff!

I got the obalon gastric balloon with Dr. Davtyan a little less than two months ago, and I've lost 25 Lbs already. I have four months to go and I'm confident I will reach my goal. Dr. Davtyan and his team are great supporters with my weight loss journey. I highly recommend this weight loss center to anyone seeking to jump start their weight loss plan.

I have had the lapband for 3.5 years and can say that it has made a major difference in my quality of life. Before the lapband my highest weight was 330 pounds. I had two small children and no energy to play with them. I have lost 100 pounds through the help of the lapband and Dr. Davtyan and his staff have been wonderful in guiding me on this journey. I have the energy I need to actively care for and have fun with my kids, which is invaluable.
