Services
Sleeve Gastrectomy
Sleeve gastrectomy is a minimally invasive weight loss surgery that removes a portion of the stomach to promote satiety and reduce calorie intake. Ideal for patients with severe obesity, this procedure offers long-term results through hormonal changes that curb appetite. Our surgeons use advanced laparoscopic techniques to ensure faster recovery and minimal scarring.
Gastric Bypass
Gastric bypass surgery creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes the digestive system to limit food absorption. This dual-action approach is highly effective for significant weight loss and managing obesity-related conditions like diabetes. Our team employs laparoscopic methods to enhance safety and recovery outcomes for patients.
Lap Band
Lap band surgery involves placing an adjustable silicone band around the upper stomach to create a feeling of fullness with smaller meals. This reversible procedure allows for customization based on patient progress and is ideal for those seeking a less invasive option with flexible long-term management.
Gallbladder Surgery
Gallbladder removal addresses painful gallstones and inflammation through minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques. Our surgeons prioritize rapid recovery and symptom relief while ensuring proper digestive function post-surgery. Patients benefit from reduced pain and improved quality of life after treatment.
Anti-Reflux Disease
Anti-reflux surgery corrects gastroesophageal reflux disease by reinforcing the stomach valve to prevent acid backflow. This procedure alleviates chronic heartburn and reduces long-term esophageal damage risks. Our approach combines symptom relief with durable anatomical correction for lasting comfort.

Fantastic group of people, they really care about your health and help you find the best version of yourself. I was referred to Weight Los Los Angeles by a family member and my life has never been the same again. Weight loss surgery can be scary but they really helped me understand what was in front of me and I'm happy to say, Life is good!

When I looked for a doctor to do my bariatric surgery, I called the staff at Weight Loss LA and explained my goals and they were very encouraging. So far, I've lost approximately 93 pounds and my partner is also part of this weight loss journey with me. As an aging couple in our mid 50's we want to avoid being stuck in a recliner; we want to be active and have mobility to travel the world and take care of our grandchildren. My daughter uploaded her wedding photos from last year to Instagram and her friends did not recognize me. My weight loss has turned back time and makes me look and feel younger

I am living post-lab band for a year and can easily say that it has made a major difference in my quality of life for the better. Before the lap band surgery, my highest weight was 337 pounds. I had three young children and no energy to play with them. I have lost 135 pounds through the help of the lap band surgery and everyone at the Weight Loss LA clinic. The staff, especially Myra and Lynn, been wonderful in guiding me on this journey. The only thing I would say is that it look me a little while to get an appointment, but it was worth the wait. I have the energy I need to actively care for and

I was almost 300 pounds when I decided I needed to change my life. I made the decision to get lap band surgery and Weight Loss LA was recommended to me by a friend. After my surgery, I lost 35 pounds in as little as two weeks and I feel much happier and healthier. I even have a better outlook on life and I'm no longer yo-yoing with my weight which is a relief. My clothing sizes have gone down significantly, I even have to buy a new belt. I can't wait to continue this journey that Dr. Drivkan has helped me embark on. I feel very confident with Dr. Drivkan's excellent guidance.

I have been struggling to lose weight for years. I finally came to the decision to get lap band done. I researched many clinics and doctors until I came across Weight Loss LA. This was the best choice for me because after my consultation, I felt really comfortable with the surgeon. I am really happy with my weight loss, however, I do wish that the weight would come off a little bit faster. I would still recommend this clinic and if I had to chose again I wouldn't change my mind. The staff really makes me feel safe to ask questions and I am happy with the progress I am making.
