I had a wonderful experience at the Med Spa Specialty Wellness Clinic. Lisa is such a great medical professional. I’m thankful that I made the switch to come here. She allowed me to talk to her and it didn’t feel rushed, she took her time with me. It was such a great experience compared to what I had before. I treasure each meeting with Lisa, you can tell that she genuinely cares.Her assistants that helped me throughout the visit were also very kind and very knowledgeable. I’m grateful for this experience and will share with friends and family.
