What are the benefits and requirements of Gillian Institute Memberships?
Gillian Institute Memberships are designed to help patients maintain consistency with their treatments, offering exclusive member pricing, savings, and monthly treatments. Benefits vary by tier, and a minimum 6-month commitment is required.
What should I consider when choosing a plastic surgeon?
Individuals considering plastic surgery should always do their research and select a surgeon with the appropriate training and credentials who prioritizes patient safety.
What are the benefits and indications of Non-Surgical BBL with Radiesse?
Non-Surgical BBL with Radiesse is used to improve the appearance of hip dips, smooth cellulite, and create a fuller, more contoured silhouette. It provides instant volume, smoother contours, and improved skin texture without surgery, stimulating collagen for longer-lasting results. A consultation is required to determine candidacy.
What is the recovery like after a Radiesse Non-Surgical BBL?
Immediately after the procedure, some redness and swelling are completely expected. As the treated area heals, the product settles, and the skin continues to improve over the following weeks.
When should I start investing in my skin for optimal aesthetic results?
It is recommended to start investing in your skin now to achieve optimal appearance for upcoming events like the holiday season and New Year, as the best aesthetic results generally take time to develop.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$810

Payments

2

Compared to peers

Modest

Dr. Kimberly Short received $810 across 2 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 56% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as debt forgiveness, and the largest single payer was Johnson & Johnson Health Care Systems Inc..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
