Dr. Laband is a board-certified internist with over 30 years of experience in primary and hospital-based care. Strongly influenced by the experiences of his father and grandfather—dentists who fled Nazi Germany—Dr. Laband’s pursuit of medicine was also guided by a deep fascination with the science and philosophy of the human condition. He received his medical degree from Tufts University School of Medicine and completed his chief residency in internal medicine at Maine Medical Center in Portland before spending nearly two decades providing primary care services in small rural community hospitals throughout the state.
Dr. Laband brings his passion for helping patients feel their best and live with dignity in Medspa California. He believes that, while medicine can’t yet stop the aging process, it can give people as much say as possible in how they age. The aesthetic and medical therapies offered at MedSpa California allow some control over many of the aspects of aging we used to just tolerate, making them clearly aligned with the dynamic, whole-person medicine he has dedicated his life to.
