About Premier Limb Lengthening Institute
Premier Limb Lengthening Institute in Upland, California, is the practice of Hrayr G. Basmajian, MD, Medical Director of Orthopaedic Trauma at Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center, a Level II trauma center where the surgery takes place. He is board-certified with an orthopaedic trauma fellowship, and PRECICE 2 is the recorded method. The institute publishes a full price list: $95,500 to $195,000 (clinic-published). Consultations are available in English and Armenian.
Both reconstructive and cosmetic adult lengthening are offered. Two things to weigh before contacting the institute: Dr Basmajian is not an LLRS member and has no documented limb lengthening fellowship — his fellowship is in orthopaedic trauma — and verification of the clinic rests largely on his own hospital and directory profiles rather than independent coverage of the lengthening practice. No international patient services or review data are published.

Why we listed this clinic
The only California provider publishing a full price list. Dr Basmajian is board-certified with an orthopaedic trauma fellowship. The clinic's site now gives a precise per-procedure price breakdown matching the previously recorded range exactly: bilateral femur $95,500 (PRECICE Max), bilateral tibia $105,500, combined/complex procedures up to $195,000, inclusive of surgery, implants, anesthesia, hospitalization and follow-up, plus 60-70 bundled PT sessions. A 'concierge program' explicitly serving patients from '50+ states & countries' contradicts the prior international-services:false flag.
