Obesity is a growing epidemic that affects as much as 35% of the adult population in the United States. Over 68% of the United States is overweight or obese.

Dr. David G. Davtyan: A Leader in Bariatric Surgery
Dr. David G. Davtyan MD, FACS, FICS is Board Certified in surgery, and is one of the most respected bariatric weight loss surgeons in Los Angeles. Dr. Davtyan's journey into bariatric surgery is marked by a unique blend of expertise and personal experience. He achieved his medical degree from the esteemed UCLA School of Medicine, MD Anderson Cancer Center, and John Wayne Cancer Institute where he trained to treat extremely difficult and metastatic cancer cases. For over ten years, he devoted his career to helping patients fight cancer successfully. His background in treating difficult cancers has instilled in him a meticulous approach to patient care, characterized by careful, thoughtful, and unparalleled long-term follow-up care.
In 2001 Dr. Davtyan himself had to undergo bariatric surgery. The success he observed from his own weight loss surgery prompted him to focus his practice entirely on performing weight loss procedures to transform lives of others who battle excess weight. He went on to study bariatric surgery in Belgium, where the LAP-BAND was first introduced, and became one of the first surgeons in the United States to offer the procedure once it achieved FDA approval in April of 2001. Dr. Davtyan's personal experience with obesity enhances his empathy and dedication to his patients.
