# Medical director

A term used when buying med spa.

The physician who supervises the medical side, required in states where a layperson may not.

In many states a layperson may not own the medical entity, which turns this role into a structural requirement rather than a title. Confirm who holds it, what they are paid, and whether the arrangement satisfies that state's rules as written, because the workable structures are specific and a lawyer in the field will know them in an afternoon. Where the current director is the seller, their willingness to stay is part of the deal you are buying.
