Catch up with Laser Clinic MD, here’s a quick list of the top laser treatment and skin care posts from last month:
- American Laser Clinic
Posted on Thursday, February 25th, 2010 in Laser Clinic – Comments: (0)Armed guard protects ALC patients from the supervising physician who is supposedly overseeing their treatment. American Laser Clinics operations are stopped by a medical board yet again. This reminds me of the post on Medical Spa MD about the armed guard that American Laser Clinics stationed in the laser clinic to prevent the supervising physician from seeing patients… while they treated those very same patients under his ‘medical direction’. According to the Quad City Times: A doctor who led a medical spa in Bettendorf has been sanctioned by the Iowa Board of Medicine. Anthony O. Colby, of Iowa City, was the medical director and/or supervision physician at American Laser Center in Bettendorf, Coralville and West Des Moines, documents from the board said. The Bettendorf location is at 852 Middle Road. The center’s West Des Moines office was also issued a cease-and-desist order by the board, saying that the center must stop “the unlawful practice of medicine in Iowa,” records indicate. The board says a person at that office performed medical services without proper physician oversight. A spokesperson for American Laser Center, a chain with 225 clinics nationwide, could not be reached for comment. Colby could not be reached for comment, either.
- Botox… Pay What You Want?
Posted on Saturday, February 6th, 2010 in Botox Canada – Comments: (0)A medical aesthetic clinic in Laval is launching the first-ever event during which clients will pay the amount they choose for their BOTOX or Juvéderm treatments. These are the two anti-aging treatments most often administered in Canada and the basic components in Soft Lift treatments. This event will take place on Tuesday, January 26, from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.“NuFace is the first medical aesthetic clinic to take such an initiative. By organizing this special day, we want the public to become better informed about full facial rejuvenation treatments using BOTOX Cosmetic and Juvéderm, and help individuals feel better about themselves during this difficult economic time,” said Jany Manning, owner of the Univers NuFace clinic.Clients who make an appointment for a treatment on this specific day will be able to choose the price they wish to pay. “The only rule is that the customer must pay at least a penny; we’ll rely on each person’s judgment. We believe that individuals have the right to treat themselves and enhance their quality of life through treatments such as Soft Lift even when the economy doesn’t make it easy. This is our small contribution to jump-start the economy and we hope that other businesses will follow with similar initiatives,” added Ms.
