Our providers

Eight people, medical director first. Every clinical provider's credentials are listed, and so is the supervision arrangement each one works under — because an injector presented as practicing alone is the most common misrepresentation in this industry.

Gloved hands, a tray, a cloth. No face in the frame, and no credential on display.

Medical Director

Portrait of the practice's medical director against a plain pale background.

Anita Rao

MD

Medical Director

Dr. Rao has practiced clinical dermatology for more than fifteen years and serves as the physician responsible for the medical services provided at Candor Aesthetics.

She writes and reviews the practice's treatment protocols and standing orders, and she reviews the cases our providers bring to her — which, by design, is a longer list than at most practices.

She is the person our injectors are supervised by, and we name her because Georgia requires it and because you should be able to find her without looking.

The delegating physician for this practice. Sets the protocols and standing orders that every other provider works under.

Anita Rao, MD

Anita Rao, MD sets the protocols and the standing orders every provider here works under, reviews the cases they bring her, and is the physician responsible for the medical services provided at this practice. Georgia requires a practice like ours to have a physician in that role and to say who it is.

What we are required to tell you about medical direction

Clinical providers

  • Portrait of the practice's founder against a plain pale background.

    Jordan Keel

    MSN, NP-C

    Founder & Lead Injector

    Jordan spent eight years in nursing and nurse-practitioner practice before opening Candor in 2019, four of those working in other people's med spas — which is where the idea for this one came from.

    She does the majority of the practice's injectable work and sees every new injectable patient for their first consultation.

    She is the reason the word no is in the tagline.

    Practices under a nurse protocol agreement with, and under the medical direction of, Anita Rao, MD.

    Camille Duarte

    RN, BSN

    Aesthetic Nurse Injector

    Camille came to aesthetics from six years in an emergency department, which shows up mostly in how unbothered she is by a nervous first-timer.

    She handles a large share of the practice's neuromodulator work and is the person most patients see for their two-week follow-up.

    She also runs the practice's infusion appointments, which is the part of the job her hospital years prepared her for most directly.

    Performs delegated medical treatments under the medical direction and standing orders of Anita Rao, MD.

    Sydney Pham

    PA-C

    Physician Assistant, Injector

    Sydney splits her time between injectables and the practice's device treatments, and she is the provider most likely to talk you out of something.

    She has a particular interest in facial balancing and in the cases where the right answer is a smaller amount in a different place.

    Practices under a job description approved by, and under the medical direction of, Anita Rao, MD.

    Nia Ellison

    LE, CLT

    Lead Medical Aesthetician

    Nia has worked in medical skincare for nearly twelve years and is the practice's laser and light lead.

    She runs most of the light-based and resurfacing appointments and builds the at-home routines that make the in-office work hold.

    If your texture plan starts with changing what you use at home rather than booking a package, that was her call.

    Cosmetic laser services are delegated by, and performed under the supervision of, Anita Rao, MD, in accordance with Georgia Composite Medical Board requirements.

    Bree Salazar

    LE

    Medical Aesthetician

    Bree handles the practice's facials, peels, and dermaplaning, and she sees more first-time patients than anyone else here — a medical facial is often the right place to start when nobody yet knows how a person's skin behaves.

    She is patient with people who arrive slightly embarrassed about their skin, which is most of them.

    Performs delegated treatments under the medical direction and standing orders of Anita Rao, MD.

    Tessa

    Patient Care Coordinator

    Tessa is the person who calls you back after you send a consultation request, and the one who works out how to fit forty-five minutes into your Thursday.

    She has been with the practice since its second year.

    Client Experience Specialist

    Rowan runs the front desk, the membership program, and the retail shelf, and knows which product you bought last time better than you do.

We do not publish license, certificate or NPI numbers. Every clinical provider above holds a current Georgia license for the work they perform, and every one of them is verifiable through the issuing board’s own public register — which is a better source than a number retyped onto a marketing page. Ask us at your consultation and we will give you whatever you need to look someone up.

Ask for someone specific

If you would rather see a particular provider, say so in the notes and the front desk will work around their schedule.
