A Frisco doctor and a med spa owner from Freestone County have been charged with murder. The charges are related to the 2023 death of a patient who received an IV infusion at the spa. The patient, a 47-year-old woman, collapsed during the procedure.
The spa's owner, who administered the IV, did not have a medical license. The doctor, who served as the med spa's medical director, was also arrested. Further details about the case are available from NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth.
The med spa in question has since closed, and the two individuals have been arraigned on multiple charges.
