Dr. Flora Waples: How To Make Aging Optional (Ep. 249)

Dr. Flora Waples, a board-certified physician, received double majors in Chemistry and Biochemistry from the University of Chicago in 2000 and graduated from Cornell Medical School at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City in 2006. After receiving her MD from this Ivy League institution, she completed her residency in Emergency Medicine and Trauma care at the University of Chicago—a training program consistently ranked among the top three in the nation. Dr. Waples began to study and perform aesthetic procedures in 2010 – and in 2011, she founded RESTOR with her sister Dominique. Together – they have grown RESTOR from a single location with one provider into a regionally known center of excellence with three locations and counting. Dr. Waples has always had the dream of growing RESTOR into a complete wellness and aesthetics practice that can help patients feel as good as they look and look as good as they feel. In 2021, Dr. Waples had the opportunity to begin a fellowship in Hormone Replacement Therapy and Longevity medicine, which she completed in 2022. Today she practices cutting-edge aesthetic, regenerative, and longevity medicine at RESTOR Medical Spa, teaches at RESTOR Academy, and works full-time as the Medical Director for RESTOR Medical Spa.
