Dr. Valnicek is an incredibly talented knowledgable surgeon. He removed 30 year old capsulized breast implants through the nipples and my breasts look totally normal with no incisions anywhere. You would never know that I had the implants before and my breasts look very natural. I am so relieved that I no longer have to worry about them and it is nice to feel natural again. I found him and his team to be very professional and they explained everything in detail. Better than expected results says it all.

Dr Stan was amazing. Unfortunately I was a hard case but he worked with me to make sure I was happy. He said he wasn't happy until I was happy. I had consults in other cities but ended up feeling the most comfortable proceeding with Dr Stan. He is knowledgeable, compassionate, and patient. He embraces the latest technologies and techniques which I cannot say for the other Dr's I consulted with.

The experience is top notch from the get go. Erin at the first point of contact whom is also compassionate and caring. She's quick to respond to emails and does her best to make things work for everyone. The facility is clean and modern and I really appreciated having my surgery done there rather than in a hospital. The after care from their friendly nursing staff was also second to none.

My results in the end are exactly as I wanted thanks to Dr Stan's skill. I couldn't be more thankful

Reconstruction surgery after mastectomy - failed, tissue died and huge necrosis which required two more surgeries to remove all the dead tissue. Healed and recovered and a year later had another surgery and received an implant that was a different size than my
non-surgical breast. All the clothes that I wear now are twisted because of the different breast sizes. My x-rays today still show surgical clamps that were left in and there is a lot of pain from the implant around the HUGE scar tissues.
On one follow up the doctor removed a large mole and 5 years later there still is a big scar from when he sliced it off like carving a roast! I have had many skin tags and moles removed and they have all healed but the sliced off mole that Dr Valnicek did still stands out. Compounded emotional scaring after cancer and a mastectomy and the after math of pain from scar tissue from the implant that never goes away are some affects to consider if having similar surgery!!!

I saw Dr Valnicek nearly a year ago to have some fat grafting on my face, which was looking to me tiered and less feminine to me. I am delighted to say that my complete experience with himself and his team was amazing; the perfect combination of professional and friendly. The results of the fat grafting has recreated a more feminine and youthful look, with out any touch of being over stuffed or fake. Dr. Valnicek definitely is a master at the fine are of classic beauty!

Very impressed with Dr. Valnicek. I went in for upper eyelid surgery to get rid of the droopy hoods that were getting worse over time.. I had never had any previous cosmetic procedures so was nervous but he put me at ease. He doesn't try to upsell and his staff were all professional and pleasant. They also provided me with the name of a local bnb to stay at for the first night after surgery as I was coming from out of town and couldn't drive home. It had a lovely, caring host who is experienced looking after post-surgical clients.
5 Stars all around!

Dr. Valnicek and his staff are absolutely wonderful. I had an abdominoplasty with him in January of 2021 and he really is a master of his craft. I am so happy with my results and all of my follow-ups. My abdominoplasty was also drainless which made my healing so much easier. 10 out of 5 stars.

Had a small raised cyst taken off my face. Many years ago I went to an aesthetic clinic and got it lasered, but it made it worse. I then recently went to Dr. Valnicek and got it excised. This was a couple weeks ago and I have no scar or anything. Super super happy! Thank you!

I had a scalp lesion removal by Dr. Valnicek and I had the best experience. I was so nervous about it going in but from the moment I arrived until I had to leave was a great experience. The staff were so friendly and reassuring and kind. I wasn't under general anesthesia, so even during the experience we had some light conversation and some laughs. I was concerned about hair regrowth or having a bald spot but Dr. Valnicek reassured me that there should be no issues. He was correct. Everything is nicely healed up, and hair is growing nicely. I would highly recommend this surgeon. He is kind hearted and very knowledgeable. It takes a special person to go to third world countries and help sick children, and this man does that. * two thumbs up*
