Dr Julia Carroll of Compass Dermatology in Toronto joins Kerri for this fun and interesting episode on opening and managing an aesthetics practice. Among the questions they dive into include how to incorporate aesthetics into a practice, how to choose what aspects of aesthetics to focus on and what courses, references or books Dr Carroll recommends to learn more about aesthetics beyond what is offered in dermatology programs. Dr Carroll also gives advice on social media and media appearances, based on her own extensive experience on television, radio and podcasts.

Our Dermatology residents questions in this episode come from Dr Marcus Tan at the University of Ottawa and Dr Niko MacLellan from the University of Toronto.

Dr. Carroll is the founder of Compass dermatology in Toronto, where she’s built a reputation for her ethical and natural approach to beauty. She is also a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons and an active member of the Canadian Dermatology Association. And she is on staff at the University of Toronto Medical School.
