  • A mix

    I LOVE these podcasts for who they interview and have learned so much- the content is invaluable. However I find Alex rather condescending, rude, (don’t drink and interview.....)- and would love for Cathy or a different host to be on the podcast more!

  • Amateurish

    The host and speakers are young and naive. If you have been in this industry for more than 2 years you’ll be bored outta your mind. These podcasts are for amateurs.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Building a Med Spa Patients Want to Help Grow
Q: How do you approach referrals and keep patients engaged for repeat visits?
We are very transparent with patients about our growth and invite them to be part of the story. We actively ask for referrals at checkout and maintain high rebooking rates by guiding patients on follow-up treatments and dates.
Building a Med Spa Patients Want to Help Grow
Q: What sparked the move from multiple clinics to Kairos Aesthetic Medicine and how does that shape your leadership now?
The shift allowed a focus on intimate patient care and a culture-driven environment, with leadership distributed to the team and patients, rather than a centralized corporate control. This enables more authentic decision-making and a boutique experience.
Rethinking Med Spa Investors: Scaling Without PE
Q: Do you look at clinics whose owners want to sell and retire, and is there a glide path for staying on after acquisition?
Yes, they will consider owners wanting to sell and retire, but typically want the owner to stay for a couple of years to ensure smooth transition and continuity.
Rethinking Med Spa Investors: Scaling Without PE
Q: What happens to clinical autonomy after you partner with a WellLabs+ clinic?
Clinical autonomy remains with staff; providers choose services and vendors, with WellLabs+ providing support and scale rather than control over daily clinical decisions.
Rethinking Med Spa Investors: Scaling Without PE
Q: So let's talk a little bit about the process. How does this work from WellLabs Plus perspective when talking to a potential partner?
The process starts with a personal connection and a deep-alignment on values and culture, followed by a comprehensive due diligence on the business, staff, geography, and service mix; if aligned, they issue an LOI and proceed through diligence to close.
