United States, 11th Dec 2025 – Dr. William C. Croley, nationally recognized anesthesiologist, educator, aesthetic safety expert, and Chief Medical Officer at Empire Medical Training, announces the release of his groundbreaking new book, The MedSpa Startup Playbook: From Injector to CEO, a comprehensive manual designed to solve the painful, expensive, and often career-threatening mistakes that cause MedSpas across the country to close their doors prematurely. Drawing from decades of clinical leadership, business building, complication management, and national teaching across more than 500 medical conferences, Dr. Croley distills hard-earned lessons into a practical framework for providers ready to transition from clinician to confident CEO.
The book opens with an unfiltered look at why most MedSpas fail, exposing the clinical myths and business blind spots that sabotage otherwise talented injectors. Dr. Croley recounts early experiences, from Botox parties in Chicago to navigating complex regulatory landscapes in Florida, illustrating how even skilled clinicians collapse under the weight of unclear financials, poor planning, and burnout. His message is direct: clinical skill is not enough; without business systems as disciplined as clinical protocols, even fully booked calendars can hide deep financial instability.
The MedSpa Startup Playbook takes readers step-by-step through vision setting, practice values, legal compliance, entity formation, scope-of-practice clarity, financial blueprints, KPI tracking, team building, branding, patient experience design, and scalable marketing. Each chapter pairs candid case studies with actionable worksheets, checklists, and templates, giving readers tools they can implement immediately, whether they are launching their first MedSpa or restructuring an existing one.
A standout feature of the book is its firm emphasis on safety as the non-negotiable foundation of any MedSpa. Dr. Croley provides practical guidance on oversight models, documentation standards, emergency protocols, training pathways, and ethical decision-making. These sections reflect his years of shaping national standards in aesthetic safety, ultrasound-guided techniques, and complication management. His stance is clear: a profitable MedSpa cannot exist without uncompromising clinical integrity.
Equally compelling are the book’s insights on leadership, culture, and sustainable owner well-being. Dr. Croley addresses the emotional traps that sink founders -perfection paralysis, comparison culture, sunk-cost bias,- and shows how clear values, consistent systems, and intentional delegation allow owners to grow without burning out. His teachings reinforce a core belief: a MedSpa should support the owner’s life, not consume it.
The book also includes a rare, transparent analysis of real-world industry failures, including the collapse of a well-known MedSpa whose public bankruptcy revealed how poor communication, unclear liabilities, and fragile operations can unravel patient trust within days. These lessons anchor the book’s central purpose: protecting both patients and providers by ensuring practices are built on solid, ethical, and financially sound foundations.
Ultimately, The MedSpa Startup Playbook is more than a resource; it’s a transformation guide for clinicians who want to build a thriving, safe, profitable, and resilient practice. With its blend of medical rigor, operational wisdom, and accessible tools, Dr. Croley delivers what the aesthetic industry has long needed: a framework that empowers injectors to step confidently into their role as CEO.
The MedSpa Startup Playbook: From Injector to CEO is now available for providers ready to build the MedSpa they deserve, with clarity, integrity, and long-term vision.
