I have been going to Valley Institute of Plastic Surgery for the past 8 years & have nothing other…read morethan positive experiences every visit. They have a Medical Spa inside (Aspire MediSpa) where all my laser hair removal, facials, ZO skin care, & filler needs are met. Shannon + Anna have both taken great care of me each appointment & really focus on enhancing my natural features as opposed to changing them or going overboard. They focus on making you look like a better you as opposed to overdoing it just so you are spending more. They take time, value your input, & most importantly make you feel comfortable. Communication, pricing, & staff are exceptional! They have been voted Best Plastic/Cosmetic Surgeon for CVLUX multiple years in a row & their outstanding service reflects just that! I will continue to go here as long as I am in Fresno.

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!

I had an extremely disappointing and stressful experience with this office, from the front desk to…read morethe 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.

She told me with time it would barely be noticed. She was right! It was a half a day. Surgery at the hospital. Very easy. I was in and out of there and Dr. Riola made it much better! She also did my breast augmentation. After over ten years they needed to be redone. They were saline before and she recommended silicone. She said they were much better for looks and she was right. The size she gave me was perfect too. The surgery was easy too. In and out. Didn't have much pain at all. It healed fast. Silicone is much better. I also earned a free Botox for getting the breast augmentation and she said it would help. It was simple and easy. The results turned out good. Up next, I had my ear piercing torn and it cut all the way through to where I couldn't wear earrings. I came up with a magical way to make it work. I used nail glue and glued them together. After a while you really get tired of nail gluing your ears to get to wear earrings. I went to Dr. Riola and she said she could easily fix them. I didn't even have to go under. She just numbed my ears and fixed them. Then they had to heal. I went in 5 months later and she pierced them. They are fixed now and I couldn't be more thankful or happier that I no longer have to nail glue my ears together. She's an incredible surgeon and really easy to work with and extremely nice. Easy to talk to too. She's confident in the work she does and earned every single star. Her staff is really nice and easy to talk to as well! She has a very nice office. It's a very nice and calm atmosphere. She has tons of great art work on the walls. Even in the bathroom. You aromatically feel welcomed from the comfort of her office and welcoming workers. Highly recommended!

I had a breast lift with 400cc saline implant as well as a tummy tuck. I've worked out for years and wasn't able to get the kind of confidence and results that Dr. Knoetgen gave me after my mommy makeover. I now have my perky full breasts back and amazingly flat stomach. I just absolutely love my curves and confidence he gave me. Not to mention the Nurse staff at Fresno was so amazing and comforting with every visit. I had blood pressure issues prior to surgery and they took their time to make sure there were no complications and made sure my health was the biggest priority first and foremost. So I got to see their smiling faces a lot. I will actually miss them all! They are an amazing team!

His focus is on delivering quality results and doing the job right. He's also a cool guy! I don't know what some of these reviews are seeing; I think people just trying to get work done and complain and get money back lol such a shame, maybe they just don't have a sense of humor. His direct demeanor just shows how seriously he takes his work. I'd much rather have a doctor who is confident and precise than overly focused on being personable. I'll also be getting my implants done with him, and I'm extremely excited! I truly believe he'll do a remarkable job. Those negative Yelp reviews honestly missed out. Zuniga is THE BEST!

She invited me to the second one because she was fearful she wasn't going to get the results she wanted and she wanted more questions answered. In the previous appointment, Dr. Zuniga had treated her poorly and suggested she lose weight prior to the procedure. The medical recommendation itself is not rude. It's the way he said it. He asked her, "do you have running shoes?" She said yes. He replied, "great, you should use them". He continued to put her down with passive aggressive comments. I attended the second appointment. He refused to shake my hand when I introduced myself. He was reluctant to explain things to my wife and I. She had a desired result in mind. Dr. Zuniga kept insisting he was not going to do that because it wouldn't "look good". To me, unless there is a medical or health related reason, there is no need to ignore what a patient wants because of personal opinion. As I asked questions about her desired results & procedure he asked me, "sorry, what do you do for work?". I told him what I do. He replied, "yeah this is different from that"...Absolutely rude & unprofessional. He did not treat my wife with care or respect. He could not meet her desired result and insulted us as we tried to understand why. All in all, her results were not what she wanted because he refused to listen to her & refused to medically explain why he couldn't do what she wanted to have done. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND you go somewhere else.

Dr. Sian's office is kind and efficient. He is a great doctor who gives solid, practical advice. I…read moreprobed a question to see if he'd say I need to lose weight after reading some of the reviews here, and he was very supportive in encouraging me to focus on healthy, safe ways to reach my goals and said to not to focus on the specific pounds. I think some people don't realize that obesity can carry serious health risks, and a responsible doctor won't approve surgery unless it's safe--because your life is at stake. You can DIE if your body is too fat and you go in for surgery. Dr. Sian is straightforward and to the point, but he also makes an effort to engage in small talk and then always brings the focus back to the medical questions, which is exactly what a good doctor should do. To leave one star reviews simply because you didn't like hearing the truth is unfair and misleading. He comes highly referred by Dr. Storey and the VA, and my experience reflects why--he's an excellent physician who cares about doing things the right way.

I am writing with deep disappointment about my consultation with Dr. Kenty Sian last year. It has…read moretaken me a long time to build up the courage to even share this experience, and even longer to consider seeing another plastic surgeon because of how badly I was treated. I came in extremely vulnerable about lifelong insecurities, seeking help for a nose that has caused me emotional pain and social isolation. Instead of feeling heard or supported, I was met with total disregard. Dr. Sian was dismissive, curt, and made me feel like I was a second-class citizen. He seemed completely uninterested in my concerns and could not wait to leave the room, treating me as if I was an inconvenience rather than a patient who deserved compassion and professionalism. As someone living with disabilities and facing constant bullying over my appearance, it took tremendous courage to finally ask for help. The way Dr. Sian treated me only added to my anxiety and sense of worthlessness. No patient deserves to be treated this way, especially when exposing their deepest insecurities to a medical professional. I hope this complaint helps raise awareness so that other patients are not made to feel so disregarded and disrespected.
