Dr. Ciresi and his nurses took such great care of me! I can't thank them enough for giving me the results I wanted!!! Dr. Ciresi made me comfortable and excited from start to finish. He was absolutely patient with me and made sure I got exactly what I wanted throughout the whole process. I am soooo pleased with my breast augmentation experience. Thank you so much, Doc! The consultation was quick and easy. Told them what I wanted and planned for the surgery. Pre op met with Dr. Ciresi and he gave me some input on my decision and what cc would give me the look I am going for then made my final decision. Post op was great! Did everything they said and took the meds I was prescribed and had a great recovery! read more

I had an extremely disappointing and stressful experience with this office, from the front desk to the nursing staff, and even post-operative follow-up. After surgery, I reached out with concerns about my recovery and felt completely dismissed. The nursing staff was unhelpful and lacked empathy, making me feel like my concerns were an inconvenience rather than something that deserved attention. The front desk interactions were equally frustrating and unprofessional. What was most alarming, however, was receiving a phone call from the doctor who mistakenly called me instead of the correct patient, asking how I was feeling in the hospital. I was not hospitalized -- I was calling because I was having issues with my recovery. This error caused unnecessary worry and discomfort and raised serious concerns about communication, attention to detail, and patient safety. Then Dr. P comes into my room with attitude and zero empathy, as if I did something wrong when he's the one to make a mistake. Overall, this experience left me feeling unheard, anxious, and regretful of choosing this practice. Post-operative care is critical, and unfortunately, this was the worst experience I've had in a medical setting. I would not recommend this office to anyone expecting attentive, compassionate, and organized care. This place is a joke. read more

The best decision I ever made. I believe i had a few consultations before finally making the decision to move forward. first encounter with staff was with Karina . I just love her personality , she helped me more then she knows. I wasn't sure where I want to start until I met Dr. Ciresi. Together we were able to finalized what my hopes of what I wanted my body to look like.I am so happy and pleased with the work of Dr. Chriss. From the moment I met him ,he has made me feel comfortable and easy to talk to . The work he did was beyond my expectations. I knew having a procedure like I been wanting ,i to be realistic on the outcome. I'm so happy with the way I look now and can't wait to work with on my next procedure with Dr.Ciresi and staff at Athenix . read more

I was there in 2019 for a BBL. After my recovery I noticed how incredibly uneven my hips were from the fat transfer not only were they uneven they were extremely pointy not round nor curvy. I went back in 2020 the doctor of course was no longer there. I had a new doctor that they felt they could help me to even out the hips. The new Dr. made them a little smaller... still pointy and a little less uneven. I was still unhappy. I came back again in year 2021. Another doctor was there! He was supposed to remove the fatty points to make me look more smooth, what he did was removed more fat from areas of my i hips that now I look sunken in in areas and still pointing !!. I was so dissatisfied, upset and disappointed . but after seeing three different doctors that could not smooth out their own mistake, I was not about to go back. Still this many years later when I wear jeans or a bathing suit, I am so self-conscious. I went there to feel better about myself. I'm a mother of four and what they did is made me feel and look worse.. i won't even to begin to let you all know my butt is not FULL or ROUND!! in fact has flat stops!!!!!! Like WTF read more

I bought the Vela-shape treatment as a Mother's Day gift to myself. After having 2 beautiful babies and transforming from a size 2, 8, 16, 10, and now currently a 12 (basically every shape and size), my body has taken a toll. I do appreciate and love my body because hey I'm not young anymore and I have a story behind me. I had a hard time buying this because I thought I was "cheating" or taking the "easy way out". I was going to the gym, but stopped going for personal reasons and started working out at home. (I went back to the gym today btw) Diet and exercise alone can not fix every single curveball a woman's body endures. That's why I called. I had the first 3 treatments booked 2 of which I have already had. Alexis made me feel so comfortable and she has been such a friendly lady. She makes sure I am comfortable with these procedures and let me tell you they hurt. No joke, like it made the top 3 most painful things I've endured in my life. She communicates well, she explained what to expect and she has this cool chill, relaxing vibe about her. I appreciate how well I am treated and how kind everyone at the Athenix office is. read more

Had my procedure done by Mr. Ciresi and I am absolutely blown away with my results. He was professional and kept me informed through the whole process. He had a great sense of humor and made it very easy to feel comfortable around him. My recovery was much smoother than I was imagining and I am in love with my results. I definitely recommend Mr. Ciresi and his staff at Athenix. read more

I have gone to this clinic not once but twice. The first time should've been gotten a clue about their bedside manners. This clinic was not for me. I had liposuction for my wedding in 2019 and received terrible bedside manners the first time. I figured it was a fluke since one of the surgeons there was known for medical neglect. Fast-forward to 2024 I decided to give them a chance since I know that provider was removed from that office and get an extended thighplasty after losing 140 pounds. I was trying to get in prior to starting back to work after maternity leave and schedule my surgery two weeks prior to me starting work. I paid over $13,000 for the surgery and it was roughly the same cost as my liposuction in 2019. During my preop appointments, I had let them know my expectations of recovery as a lot of doctors nowadays are Tylenol happy even with a major surgery. We developed a postoperative plan and I was set to have surgery. I had surgery on September 30 and everything went smoothly. During my recovery, I was in an enormous amount of pain. Due to the fact, they failed to let me know how my incisions were going to be put together and how fragile they are. At my first preop appointment, I was basically paraded around just for them to take pictures and not give two craps about my condition. My second postop appointment the same thing happened except this time they were swapping out my retention tape and we're not gentle about it. I was crying in utter agony to the nurse, letting her know that this was utter hell for me. I was about to run out of my pain medication that I stretched out and that there is no way I could go back to work like this. The nurse was very sympathetic and had let me know there was no issue with the doctor assisting treating my pain as I had about 4 feet of incisions in total with 2 feet on either leg. My husband, mind you was in the room hearing the entire conversation. She had let me know she would speak to the doctor and make sure that I had a adequate prescription for recovery. It rolls on later into the day and I somehow get a phone call stating they were leaving me high and dry all due to the fact I had a different medical issue going on in my life for a Severe back injury, where I had a different prescription that was NOT supposed to be used for this surgery. Mind you I had that prescription locked away unused for when I got better to treatment for my back. NOT THIS SURGERY. They had lied to my primary care physician and stated that the nurse never said the doctor was gonna do anything for me. At that point, I was flabbergasted. I had spoken to not only my primary physician, but my pain management doctor I was waiting to see prior to surgery, and they were disgusted with Dr. Partovi and his staff. They take an oath to do no harm and yet they took my money and ran. My primary care physician ordered me home health care as this type of surgery I had was Extremely major and I couldn't even bathe myself let alone due day-to-day activities. Also, my pain management doctor wanted me in a wheelchair because you can't be walking around with 4 feet incisions with a chance of it busting open. Weeks go by and no one ever reaches out from this clinic. I take time out of the day to call this clinic to talk to the office manager about the disgusting behavior and medical neglect. I work for a hospital system, and I know a lot about how procedures are supposed to go, especially grievances. The office manager was very apologetic to me and stated she was going to speak to the doctor and his director as this was not right. Not only did that not happen, but I am scarred for the rest of my life, knowing they took money from me and didn't even care about how I was. Not only did they cost me money for the surgery, but they cost me money for childcare to take care of my baby who I couldn't even bathe or pick up for 6 WEEKS, They have caused me emotional pain and physical suffering. I am now just getting out of my wheelchair post-op and still dealing with post operative pain. Moral of the story, don't go here! read more

I had an incredible experience at the Fresno office. From my first consultation down to surgery day, I always felt welcomed with open arms. Dr. Ciresi is an absolute charm, he is excellent at his craft. I would recommend this doctor to anyone looking to get a breast augmentation in Fresno. My procedure went beautifully, with a seamless recovery. I opted to get my implants through the inframammary fold, instead of the areola. When I say I can't see a scar... there is genuinely no scar. Immaculate work, with results I dreamed of. Karina is a joy, she made me feel comfortable from day one. She is incredibly knowledgeable and really works to advocate for the patient's best interest. She was constantly working with me for scheduling and payment needs. 10/10 a great institute. I will continue to recommend to any lady in the area who wants to get work done. read more

I got a breast augmentation at Athenix and a lot people told me this isn't a good place to go but I did my own research and this place was the one I had my eye on the most and no other place gave it competition in my opinion. I'm so glad I went to Athenix Dr. Willis did such an amazing job I will be going back again when I am ready to up my size lol read more

Let me just say Dr. Ciresi is AMAZING!!!! I had wanted to fix my tubular breasts since I was a teenager. I had seen a few surgeons in the past that did not leave me feeling confident that they could fix my breast, so I kept putting it off. So after losing 159lbs I was left with a good amount of loose skin and once I decided to have it removed I started my search for a surgeon again. Thanks to Instagram I found Athenix! Marci was my first contact and she was so nice, she just feels like home. Dr. Ciresi made me feel confident that he was the one. I am so thankful for Dr. Ciresi and Athenix, they finally made my life long dreams my new reality and I am forever grateful. read more

I reached out to schedule a consultation with them and Melissa (who I guess is at a call center), asked me all the screening questions to schedule it. Then she said I didn't qualify, although I said I wanted a balloon, she thought I wanted something else. (Strike one) Then she wanted me to send pictures for the consultation for something other than a balloon procedure where pictures weren't needed. When I asked why she realized what I wanted didn't need photos. (Strike two) Basically they seem wildly unorganized. When I canceled my consultation because of the multiple red flags from their staff not knowing what procedure the person they were talking to wanted. Marci, who was scheduled to give my consultation, just blamed the "call-center". But if you (Marci) know you're having a consultation with a client about a procedure that doesn't require photos and you asked me for photos it's because you didn't really look to see what you were gonna be talking to me about. (Strike three) If you can't even get a consultation correct then why would I be trusting you to do a procedure. Looking forward to working with another company that not so careless in their communication. read more

Athenix has been a wonderful experience for me! After my gastric sleeve surgery, they have done a few procedures for me and it has made such a difference. The main thing is my fantastic Dr. Dr Hoyt is amazing! He is there when you have questions, whenever you have questions. He makes you feel top of the list. His surgery staff is great and the after care team is great. The whole experience from the front desk, consulting (Korina), to the end has been top notch! Thank you! My results are amazing! I feel confident and I'm so excited! read more

Dr cireci the best at Athenix !!!! too bad that he retired!!! I lost my surgery with him

Another business that doesn't have the courtesy to update their website to remove services they DO NOT PROVIDE. Even worse is the fact that I was able to make an appointment for a consultation to see if I am a good candidate for Vaser Liposuction. The morning of my appointment I was informed that they do not offer Vaser Lipo. How difficult can it possibly be for the office manager, or whoever is in charge of advertising, to be aware of what is on their website? Don't waste others time and your own business' time making appointments that are going to be cancelled at the last minute. How is it possible that the people who work in this establishment, especially the schedulers, not know what services are and ARE NOT provided? read more

So I got a breast reduction from this place Dec 1.2022 and let me just say I was very insecure and not confident whatsoever before the surgery and this place made that EVEN WORSE. First I was a size 40E, now I'm a 38-40 D which is what I wanted but the shaping of my breast now looks terrible, my right boob is significantly bigger than my left, and my left boob is now square shaped. And they are suppose to provide a breast lift with their breast reduction but their definition of lift is just moving the nipple up a couple inches..that's not a lift. So now I just cry with my small saggy breast. My breast before were big and saggy ofc but now it's the same just with smaller breast. So thank you for absolutely destroying my self confidence . So now I'll have to go through surgery again just to fix this. read more

I had my second velashape today with Julie and it was amazing. If you're looking to reduce cellulite and increase some smoothing, this is a more affordable option and convenient option. Also, Julie is awesome! She has me laughing the whole time. The treatment can causes some discomfort so I'm glad they have such good staff members to help you through it. I've been a patient at Athenix for about 6 months(various treatments) I've never had a bad experience. Hands down, they have the best staff and care. read more

It's been a positive experience from beginning to end at Athenix. The staff and Dr. Ciresi are amazing. I had breast implants and lift as well as as abdominoplasty and lipo. I was on pain meds 8 days. 5 months later my scarring is very minimal. read more

Okay, prepare for a very long post! I just want to give you the the entire experience. It took me 10 years of research and action. I was afraid of the surgery and all that came with it. I gained so much weight with my pregnancies that my stomach looked horrible, I was always embarrassed and ashamed. I would never wear a swimsuit. I picked Athenix to do my procedure due to their great customer service, price and urgency of my time frame. I had a ton of questions for Dr. Tran and she was extremely willing to answer them all. After several months post surgery, I noticed some swelling above my belly button (this was not part of the plan). I was extremely concerned and took it to Dr. Tran. While sympathetic, she wasn't sure what was going on and was bluntly honest. That made me scared. It was suggested that I see a GI doctor. I did, it turns out to be an underlying medical issue that is now being treated. I bring this up because had Dr. Tran not been so precise I may have gone another 10 years not knowing. Since my tummy tuck was so perfected, I was able to notice inflammation of my small intestines. I am so incredibly happy with my results (pics below) that I am ready to book my second procedure. The tummy tuck, muscle repair and micro contouring preformed by Dr. Tran has given me so much pleasure and joy every single time I look in the mirror or zip up a pair of jeans. The staff was so kind and professional with me during my journey, as soon as I left the GI doctor with the results I called to tell them. If you are considering Athenix as part of your journey I HIGHLY RECOMMEND them. I have been recommending them to all my friends and family. Having a procedure like this is very intimate and intimidating, but can be absolutely life changing. I get compliments daily. I love my body. I look like I did when I was 15. I'll be wearing a swimsuit this year! read more

I had saline implants done by Dr. Cirese. Less than six months after surgery I could tell that one breast was noticeably smaller. I mentioned this at the follow up but was told it looks fine. The smaller breast also rests lower. I'm thinking if it were filled more it would have matched the higher breast. Later I realized he put 500cc in one and 550 in the other. You can tell. Not just that, the implants are too large for the amount of liquid used. The implants were under filled. You can see in the photos attached that there's deep rippling. I can burry my finger vertically in the ripple and hide it. It's awful. You get your breast done to feel good, though I always want them covered and actually preferred my old breasts to these. I'm not proud of them. Here a year later I'm looking to have them redone. So disappointed. I would not recommend having your breast done with Dr. Ciresi. read more

So easy to set an appointment over the phone. Very friendly staff as soon as I walked through the door. Convenient hours for a busy working mom, such as myself. I'm so happy I chose Athenix for Vela body contouring. No pain at all! I noticed results after my first appointment. Julie sent me home with a small sample of skin firming lotion to use at night after my first appointment. She explained the process before we got started and she put my mind at ease with just how pleasant she was throughout the process. I will definitely recommend Athenix to all my friends. read more

Dr. Partovi assisted me in my procedure. He did so well and I'm more than content with my results. The staff is very prompt and always return calls. He has great bedside manner and would refer him. I had some issues with my EDD and Candice was able to help me out with that and fix it. Staff is very welcoming and the nurses are great here. Thank you Dr. Partovi for making this procedure so great. Your sculpting is amazing!!! read more

If I could give Athenix more than 5 stars, I would especially because of Dr. Partovi. He changed my life. I am 5' and have had 4 babies. My diastasis was really bad. SO bad that I looked around 6-7 months pregnant always. I am very thin otherwise. I'm 120lbs overall even after 4 children. It was very abnormal for me to look that way. I scheduled a consultation with Dr. Partovi and had a list of 42 questions and when I tell you he answered every single one of them before I even asked one of them, I knew he was the surgeon for me. He made me feel at ease by the way he listened to me and my concerns. He didn't rush me, made eye contact and really double checked with me to see if I was really satisfied with the consult before he left. I paid my deposit SO fast to get a surgery date. My results are phenomenal. I went in for my 6 week post op just yesterday. When I saw him I hugged him AND CRIED to which he responded, I'm happy you found me and I said NO, I'M HAPPY I FOUND YOU. He said I looked so good and that was only 20% of my swelling down and healing done. He said by the 6 month mark I'll look even better but to be honest, I'm happy with it AS IS. He's so incredible. He has magic in his hands. He's also a perfectionist so my scar is SO THIN and so perfectly symmetrical. I am still in awe of his work and my results. Will update with before and after pictures when I have my May appointment. I'm just incredibly grateful. He is truly a stellar surgeon. I 110/100 recommend him! read more

Had Smart Lipo done by Dr. Tavassoli and love my results. The front staff reception is very knowledgable and the medical team went above and beyond my expectations. Dr. Tavassoli is very professional and took the time to answer all my questions and insured everything was clear and made me feel confident and comfortable. Just had my final check up with Dr. Tavassoli and I'm doing kart wheels out the door. I would definitely recommend Athenix Body Sculpting to anyone of my friends and family. Ask for Marina Torres. She gave me the best consultation. read more

I was very surprised how my experience went. They're super nice in the beginning to get you in and then they really do not care. When I asked for guidance on the breast massages after my breast augmentation they directed me to YouTube. For the amount of money you spend you would think they would want to help you understand the way you need to take care after surgery, especially since my surgery was different than the normal. Would not recommend to go here! They also did not give me the results I wanted and I will have to now go elsewhere to hopefully obtain the desired look. read more

I went in a couple months ago insecure and walked out feeling amazing, like a new women. Being able to step into a consult with karina and feeling so comfortable is what made my experience an amazing one that I would recommend to my friends and family. The staff was friendly and Dr. Ciresi's results are amazing. I would do it all over again. And thank you again Karina for the time, consistency and care you provided. To feel confident in my own skin again is something everyone out there deserves. Don't hesitate to call. read more

In January 2020 I had a procedure for breast augmentation with lift by Dr. Ciresi and his team. I cannot stress how comfortable Dr. C made me feel along with his staff! From the moment I walked in the door and then sitting with the Patient Care Consultant Marci (who was amazing at what she did and on so sweet) I knew Athenix was where I would have my surgery! Dr. Ciresi answered all of my questions along with my boyfriend's and we never felt rushed. Dr. Ciresi's bedside manner is so great and his humor was amazing and always had us laughing. My care during and now in aftercare is always done with such patience and knowledge. I am forever grateful for this amazing team in making me feel like a brand new woman! read more

The staff here is very kind but when getting a surgery that's a big deal, kind means nothing. I received a breast augmentation from Dr. Ciresi and came out deeply unsatisfied. From the start, one breast was significantly lower than the other. When I went in, Dr. Ciresi made it seem like it was my fault for "not doing the exercises" but my breasts were that way since day one and I have photos to prove it. He also made it seem like I had an option of leaving as is or fixing (of course with a fee). Luckily I was able to get that fee waived - anyone with good vision could clearly see my breasts were so uneven. I sit here in bed in pain AGAIN because he had to go back in to lift the breast to match the other. This surgery impacted my mental health the first time with not being able to do much physical activity so it is so upsetting that I have to go through these pains again. Dr. Ciresi is a nice individual but he did not once acknowledge that he did mess up because of course it'll affect his wallet/job if he admits to it. Again, dr. Ciresi and the staff were all so kind but boy do I regret coming here immensely. Update: oh and when I post genuine reviews, I expect a genuine response and apology from parties involved. Instead, what you get is an automated response from a James H person just to appeal to the public that they are indeed doing something good. Again, stay away from this place. read more

First off, I did not go through with scheduled micro-body contouring procedure. This review is solely on misguided information. I was warmly greeted by smiling front desk personnel and cozy setting. Karina was absolutely amazing with answering questions and addressing concerns leading up to surgery. I was told that I'd be 100% refunded if I needed to cancel the procedure for any reason. Therefore, I agreed to be charged for the procedure to reserve the date, although it was a month in advance. However, I was not refunded 100% when I cancelled and Karina was going to look into that.But I never heard back, despite sending a follow up email. This made me feel as if they just wanted me to pay for the procedure. My updated review is based on the fact that the owner honestly cares about his patients and business. The owner reached out to me and investigated my concern. He dedicated his time to thoroughly explain the situation with respect. He is willing to rectify the situation by making sure that I am 100% refunded. Athenix strives to ensure excellent customer service! read more

They didn't call to confirm my appointment which concerned me due to the holiday. I called to confirm so I would not waste my time and gas. They said my appointment was for a different time. Then called me back to say my appointment was canceled but they were going to fit me in at a earlier time. Then had me wait over 40 minutes. As I waited I saw them charge at least 4 ladies after their services. When they finally called me in and went over the procedure they demanded to charge me before the service was even performed. Racist much? To top it off she brushed off my concern of a completely noticeable uneven area as if I had no idea what I was talking about and rushed me out the door. Horrible customer service. read more
