Medspa Compliance & Costly Mistakes with Healthcare Attorney Doris Dike

The Aesthetic AF Podcast | Hosted by Tara Dotson Riley & Sam Varner 

This episode is a must-listen for any medspa owner, nurse, or aesthetic business leader looking to protect their business, reputation, and license. Tara and Sam sit down with Doris Dike, founder of Dike Law Group, PLLC, a healthcare attorney who works with providers and medspa owners across Texas.

We dive deep into:

• Why copying what your friend’s medspa is doing could land you in serious legal trouble
• What documents are non-negotiable if you're running a medspa
• How delegation agreements and MSOs (Management Service Organizations) work
• The right (and wrong) way to use client photos in marketing
• What to know before opening a second location
• What happens when you actually get audited by the TMB or other boards
• How to handle client complaints before they turn into board complaints or lawsuits

This isn’t just legal theory — Doris has seen it all, and she’s sharing the hard truths medspa owners need to hear. If you're in aesthetics, this is your reminder to stop winging it and get your legal foundation solid.
