Medspa medical director
for Tempe, AZ providers
Arizona-licensed FNP-C medical directorship for medspas, IV therapy lounges, hormone clinics, and sexual wellness practices in Tempe, Guadalupe and the East Valley.

Tempe practices that need
real clinical oversight
Medical directorship is required in Arizona for any practice administering prescription products or delivering services that need a medical order. If you own or operate one of the practice types below in Tempe or the surrounding communities, you likely need a formal director on file with the Arizona State Board of Nursing.
Botox, dermal filler, lip filler, sclerotherapy, and other Rx aesthetic services. Directorship covers product selection, dosing protocols, complication management, and consent framework.
NAD+, high-dose vitamin C, ozone (MAH), glutathione, myers, and custom drips. Full screening protocols, drip formulations, and defined emergency response for infiltration and reaction.
BHRT, TRT, thyroid optimization, semaglutide/tirzepatide, and peptide therapy. Screening panels, dosing protocols, and monitoring frameworks aligned with current AZ standards.
O-Shot, P-Shot, PRP hair restoration, PRP orthopedic, vampire facial, and regenerative protocols. Consent framework, procedure protocols, and complication management included.
Everything a Tempe practice
needs on day one
A complete directorship engagement in Tempe delivers the full compliance foundation before the first patient appointment — then supports the practice through service-line expansion, chart review, and ongoing clinical questions.
Tempe is a fast-growing, entrepreneurial market and the Arizona State Board of Nursing does inspect patient complaints. Practices operating without complete documentation are the ones exposed to enforcement action — and to plaintiff-side attorneys reviewing charts after an event.
See the AZ compliance checklist →Arizona is a full practice authority state. Board-certified NPs hold independent prescriptive authority and may serve as Medical Director without a physician collaboration agreement — a structural advantage for Tempe practices.

Tempe is one of Arizona's fastest-growing and youngest markets for aesthetics and wellness — anchored by Arizona State University and a dense population of students, young professionals, and the tech workforce around Marina Heights and the Discovery Business Campus. That demographic drives strong, steady demand for injectables, IV therapy and recovery drips, and GLP-1 weight-loss programs, and it has pulled a wave of new medspas and wellness clinics into the Mill Avenue, Tempe Marketplace, and Warner/Elliot corridors.
Many of these Tempe practices are opened by first-time owners — which is exactly where a real medical director matters most. A signature-only director is not enough. The practices that launch cleanly and stay compliant have a director who is an active clinician: someone injecting, running IVs, and managing complications in a real practice, not just signing agreements. When a vascular occlusion happens on a Wednesday afternoon, your practice needs a director who has personally managed one, not a director who was last hands-on years ago.
Naomi Fayzulayev, FNP-C, is the founder and active injector at Beso Wellness & Beauty. Every protocol, standing order, and emergency procedure Beso Provider Hub writes for Tempe practices is battle-tested in a real clinic — not written from a template. That is the structural difference between a directorship built for compliance-on-paper and a directorship built for clinical reality.
Tempe (Downtown / Mill Avenue, Tempe Marketplace, Tempe Town Lake, and the Warner/Elliot corridor in South Tempe), Guadalupe, and the greater East Valley. Directorship engagements are managed remotely with in-person availability as needed for major service-line launches, chart audits, and event response.
Independent NP-owned medspas, ASU-area recovery and IV therapy lounges, GLP-1 weight-loss clinics, hormone and sexual wellness practices, and new multi-service wellness suites opened by first-time owners. Directorship scope is quoted to match the specific service menu.
Signature-only director who is not reachable when needed; outdated or missing standing orders; no defined emergency response; director not licensed to prescribe the practice's current service menu; or a director charging a retainer without any measurable ongoing work.
