sadly that's becoming the exception and not the rule....personally I'd only let the doctor do it, but it's more about experience with the machines I guess

you want to make sure that they have experience before they touch you, particularly if it's going to be a deep treatment -- perhaps the doctor does those and the lighter more surface treatments are done by the nurses and assistants

Absolutely the doctor. If you are dropping potentially thousands on a treatment I would expect nothing less than the doctor doing the laser treatment, no question. That is unacceptable to me that doctors would pass off the laser, a machine that can do serious damage if used incorrectly, to a nurse.

This again? How is that even legal? RED FLAG!!!!!!
