Meet David Khechoyan, MD

I strive to provide the highest quality and personal care for my patients that is grounded in the most up-to-date evidence and innovations in medicine. I strongly believe in treating each child in the context of the entire family and having both child and family as active participants in the decision-making and care.

"It is important for us to help children interact with the world without any issues. I'm amazed by their courage."

- Dr. David Khechoyan

Research and grants

For Patients:
My primary research focus is on evaluating surgical outcomes in reconstruction for children born with craniosynostosis, cleft lip/palate, and other craniofacial conditions.

For Referring Providers:
My primary research focus is on developing novel 3D computational methods to evaluate surgical outcomes in craniosynostosis reconstruction and, in turn, on utilizing this information to devise effective new technical strategies that would enable more long-lasting and aesthetic results.
