How It Works
How to Get a Medical Director for Your Med Spa
Many med spa owners ask the same question: how do I find a medical director? In Illinois, nurse practitioners with prescriptive authority and aesthetic clinical experience can serve as medical directors for med spas. Here is how the process works when you partner with Express Med Spa.
Step 1: Confirm Med Spa Medical Director Requirements in Illinois
Illinois requires that medical spas providing injectable, laser, or IV aesthetic services have a licensed clinical provider serving as medical director. Before you treat patients, your practice needs a signed oversight agreement, approved treatment protocols, and a medical director who is available for clinical consultation. A nurse practitioner with full prescriptive authority meets this requirement in Illinois.
Step 2: Find a Qualified Medical Director for Your Med Spa
Finding the right medical director means locating a licensed provider with hands-on aesthetic experience, knowledge of your state regulations, and a commitment to your practice's compliance needs. Stefanie Drozd, MSN-APRN meets each of these criteria. As both a practitioner and a four-location med spa owner, she understands the business and clinical sides of running a compliant aesthetic practice.
Step 3: Complete Your Good-Faith Exam Agreement
Express Med Spa conducts virtual good-faith exams starting at $75 each. These are state-required evaluations that confirm a patient is an appropriate candidate for a treatment. Patients complete these virtually, in minutes, without leaving your clinic. Once your oversight agreement is active, your staff can begin scheduling good-faith exams through our streamlined process.
Step 4: Access Training, Protocols, and Group Drug Pricing
As a medical director partner, you receive 50% off all training and protocol documents, consent forms, and treatment guides. You also gain access to group drug pricing for injectables including Xeomin, Botox, Letybo, and other neurotoxins, dermal fillers, and GLP-1 weight loss program supplies. These discounts can reduce your cost of goods and improve your clinic's revenue per appointment.
Step 5: Begin Treating Patients Under Compliant Oversight
Once your agreement is signed, your good-faith exam process is active, and your protocols are in place, you are ready to treat patients. Stefanie Drozd, MSN-APRN remains available for clinical questions and oversight as defined in your agreement. This is the straightforward path to compliant, nurse practitioner-supervised aesthetic practice in Illinois.
