Meet Our Team

Our team is courteous, responsive and knowledgeable. They are indispensable in extending and supplementing treatments initiated by the doctors. Whether it’s an IV infusion, customized supplement program, a wellness program, or postoperative healing questions, they will be available to take care of you.

 

We will keep in contact with patients before, during and after their treatments via the patient portal, email, and text message. Also, by attending regular seminars and training conferences, updating blog posts, hosting events, and using social media, we will keep our patients informed about the latest health recommendations and aesthetic modalities.

Our downtown space is clean, modern, discreetly located, close to all of what Greenville has to offer. For our out-of-town patients, we are on the northeast end of downtown, and very close to the main corridors of Greenville and I-385, making it an easy trip to see us.
