I had my surgery done by Dr.Davtyan. The only problem I have had is acid reflux but I had a little bit of that before the surgery so it probably has nothing to do with the band. If you have any questions you can pm me.

So I'm officially banded, all thanks to the wonderful Dr. Davtyan. (Who I now refer to as my angel).

I didnt get many replies here when I originally posted, but I see quite a few views so just in case anyone is interested or looking in to him, let me tell you how I feel.

This man is AMAZING. I couldnt be happier with my choice of surgeon. His bedside manner is OUTSTANDING, he thoroughly answers any and all questions that you have and then some, and he trully guides you to your way to success. It also doesnt hurt that he is a wonderful person with a big heart. His staff- I cant say enough about them. All of his staff are so welcoming, warm, kind and helpful. They all make you feel so important. And they make you feel genuine care. They dont treat you as though you are another patient to check off the list. Its all about YOU.

My surgery went flawless, my incisions are tiny, and the after care is amazing.

I HIGHLY recommend this doctor to anyone in the Los Angeles area and surrounding. You REALLY wont be disappointed. Dont even think twice. He was the best decision I could have made.

I have an appointment coming up tomorrow and as crazy as it sounds, I CANT WAIT to see them all again! They have trully made this experience better tenfold!

If anyone has any specific questions, feel free to contact me.

Hi BriBri, Just wondering which office you used? I saw him at cedars and didn't like the environment there. Are you still happy with Dr. Davtyan and the band in general?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
