When it comes to aesthetic treatments, wellness therapies, and medical-grade skincare, the expertise behind your care matters just as much as the treatment itself. With the rise of med spas across the country, it’s more important than ever for patients to know who is guiding their care, and whether that professional is qualified to oversee medical aesthetics safely and effectively.
At The ReCenter in Coralville, IA, our patients can feel confident knowing their treatments are led by experienced, trusted professionals under the medical direction of Dr. Kahlil Andrews and the expert care of Nurse Practitioner Kaitlyn Wheelan. Every service we offer is backed by advanced medical insight, artistic skill, and a deep commitment to patient wellness.
Why the Medical Director’s Role Is So Important
In any medical spa, the Medical Director serves as the foundation of patient safety and treatment quality. Their role is to ensure that all services, from injectables and skin treatments to hormone optimization and IV therapy, are performed according to the highest medical standards.
A qualified Medical Director brings:
- Clinical Oversight: They ensure all procedures are safe, compliant, and medically appropriate for each patient.
- Training and Accountability: They supervise staff training, review patient protocols, and uphold strict standards for care.
- Personalized Treatment Plans: They bring medical expertise to each patient’s wellness journey, tailoring care to individual goals and health needs.
Unfortunately, not all med spas maintain the same level of medical supervision. Patients should always ask who the Medical Director is, what their credentials are, and whether they are directly involved in patient care. At The ReCenter, transparency, experience, and patient safety are our top priorities.

What Happens When a Med Spa Lacks Proper Oversight
Choosing a med spa without a qualified Medical Director can come with serious risks. Treatments like Botox, dermal fillers, microneedling, or hormone therapy require medical expertise to ensure safety, proper dosing, and correct application. Without proper oversight, patients risk:
- Poor or inconsistent results
- Inappropriate product use or treatment combinations
- Higher chances of complications or adverse reactions
- Lack of personalized medical evaluation prior to treatment
By contrast, med spas like The ReCenter operate with medical integrity at every level. Every procedure is reviewed through a clinical lens, ensuring your results not only look great but also support your overall health.
