We resume our roller-coaster discussion with Alex Thiersch, JD, Founder and CEO of the American Medical Spa Association. Here’s the reality: Many highly skilled and well-intentioned doctors working in or operating medical spas are slammed for medico-legal oversights. We identity the legal challenges that are closing doors and reveal what actions doctors can take today to neutralize the worst outcomes.
If you work in, currently operate, or are considering opening a med spa, this podcast is a must-listen. To learn more about Alex and the American Medical Spa Association, visit their website.
