    Wellgistics Health Terminates Equity Line of Credit to Further Support Growth Strategy

    TAMPA, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Wellgistics Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:WGRX) (“Wellgistics Health” or the “Company”), a leader in next-generation pharmaceutical distribution, digital prescription routing, and AI-powered hub fulfillment, today announced the termination of its equity purchase agreement (“ELOC”) with Hudson Global Ventures, LLC.

    The ELOC was an effective tool that nearly doubled the Company’s original IPO raise. The decision to terminate the agreement reflects a strategic shift toward accretive financing and reinforces its aim of long-term shareholder value creation.

    Management cited strong execution in expanding its independent pharmacy network, accelerating adoption of its AI-powered prescription routing technology and payment platforms, and creating a strong pipeline for growth opportunities with manufacturer direct-to-patient (DTP) platforms as drivers behind the move. This unique approach is designed to bypass traditional PBM barriers, increase manufacturer margins, and accelerate patient access.

    “From a financial standpoint, terminating the ELOC aligns with our disciplined approach to capital structure and shareholder equity preservation,” said Mark DiSiena, Chief Financial Officer of Wellgistics Health. “It allows us to secure more favorable funding opportunities so we can focus on our strategic plans, optimize our cost of capital, and pursue options that better reflect our growth trajectory.”

    “This decision reflects the discipline we’re bringing to every part of the business,” said Brian Norton, Chief Executive Officer of Wellgistics Health. “We’ve moved past the challenges of our opening quarters and are entering a new chapter built on operational strength and strategic execution. We’re ready to show the market what we’re truly capable of – delivering smarter, faster access to medicine, empowering independent pharmacies, and creating lasting value across the healthcare ecosystem.”

  • Interactive Strength Inc. (Nasdaq:TRNR) Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results; Increases 2025 Pro Forma Revenue Guidance to More Than $80M

    Interactive Strength Inc. (Nasdaq:TRNR) Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results; Increases 2025 Pro Forma Revenue Guidance to More Than $80M

    Company Reports Quarterly Revenue of $1.2 Million; Net Loss and Loss per Diluted Share of $2.2 Million and $2.13

    Quarterly Adjusted EBITDA Loss of $1.7 Million Reflects 40% YOY Improvement

    TRNR held 29.6 Million FET tokens as of June 30, 2025 and 67.4 Million FET tokens as of August 13, 2025, with a value in excess of $50 million, representing the largest publicly traded AI-focused Digital Asset Treasury

    Stockholders’ Equity Was $16.3 Million at Quarter End

    2025 Pro Forma Revenue Guidance Increased to more than $80 Million, driven by Sportstech’s Stronger-Than-Expected Performance, and Fourth Quarter Profitability Guidance Reiterated

    AUSTIN, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Interactive Strength Inc. (Nasdaq:TRNR) (“TRNR” or the “Company”), maker of innovative specialty fitness equipment under the Wattbike, CLMBR and FORME brands, and the pending acquirer of Sportstech, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

    Quarterly Financial Highlights

    For the quarter, TRNR reported revenue of $1.2 million, a net loss of $2.2 million – or $2.13 per diluted share – and an Adjusted EBITDA loss of approximately $1.7 million (non‑GAAP).

    Results do not include Wattbike (closed July 1, 2025) or Sportstech (pending) for the period. However, if both businesses were included in the second quarter, revenue would have been approximately $17 million.

    Digital Asset Treasury Strategy

    TRNR also closed a very significant investment in the quarter to begin to execute its Digital Asset Treasury Strategy, and was able to acquire 29.6 million FET tokens by the end of the Q2. TRNR has since completed the cumulative purchase of 67.4 million FET tokens, at an average token price of $0.70, currently worth in excess of $50 million.

    Outlook

    TRNR is increasing its full‑year 2025 pro forma revenue guidance to more than $80 million, driven by Sportstech’s stronger-than-expected-performance, and by continued momentum across the TRNR + Wattbike platform. TRNR is also reiterating its guidance that it expects to achieve Adjusted EBITDA profitability in the fourth quarter.

    Sportstech

    The Sportstech acquisition continues to proceed and all parties are working to satisfy the remaining items to close the acquisition and look forward to being able to update investors with more specific guidance on the transaction as soon as possible.

    Founder and CEO Trend Ward stated: “We believe that Q2 will be the inflection point for TRNR, as we now have the largest publicly traded AI-focused Digital Asset Treasury, comprised of 67.4 million FET tokens, worth more than $50 million, and we are increasing our 2025 pro forma revenue guidance to more than $80 million, driven by the stronger-than-expected performance of Sportstech, our pending acquisition. We closed the Wattbike acquisition right after the quarter had ended and all parties are working on completing the remaining items to close the Sportstech acquisition as soon as we can. If both acquisitions were included in the second quarter, we would have generated approximately $17 million in revenue for the quarter. We are also reiterating that we expect to be profitable in the fourth quarter. In our view, the combination of these synergistic acquisitions, along with our AI-focused Digital Asset Treasury, represents a significant opportunity for investors.”

    Channels for Disclosure of Information
    In compliance with disclosure obligations under Regulation FD, we announce material information to the public through a variety of means, including filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), press releases, company blog posts, public conference calls, and webcasts, as well as via our investor relations website. Any updates to the list of disclosure channels through which we may announce information will be posted on the investor relations page on our website. The inclusion of our website address or the address of any third-party sites in this press release are intended as inactive textual references only.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    In addition to our results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance.

    The Company’s non-GAAP financial measure in this press release consist of Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as net (loss) income, adjusted to exclude: other expense (income), net; income tax expense (benefit); depreciation and amortization expense; stock-based compensation expense; (gain) loss on debt extinguishment; vendor settlements; and transaction related expenses.

    The Company believes the above adjusted financial measures help facilitate analysis of operating performance and the operating leverage in our business. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of our business and in understanding and evaluating our operating results for the following reasons:

    • Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, other expense (income), net, and provision for income taxes that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing, capital structures, and the method by which assets were acquired;

    • Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget, as a measure of our core operating results and the effectiveness of our business strategy, and in evaluating our financial performance; and

    • Adjusted EBITDA provides consistency and comparability with our past financial performance, facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating results, and may also facilitate comparisons with other peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results.

    Our use of Adjusted EBITDA, or any other non-GAAP financial measures we may use in the future, is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered as a substitute for, or in isolation from, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. Some of these limitations are, or may in the future be, as follows:

    • Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;

    • Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense, which has recently been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy;

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (1) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (2) interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt, which reduces cash available to us; or (3) tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect impairment charges for fixed assets and capitalized content, and gains (losses) on disposals for fixed assets;

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (gains) losses associated with debt extinguishments.

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect losses associated with vendor settlements.

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect transaction related expenses for CLMBR acquisition and pending acquisitions of Wattbike and Sportstech.

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect non cash fair value gains (losses) on convertible notes, derivatives, warrants and unrealized currency gains (losses).

    Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way that these measures are calculated. For example, the expenses and other items that we exclude in our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the expenses and other items, if any, that other companies may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA when they report their operating results. Because companies in our industry may calculate such measures differently than we do, their usefulness as comparative measures is limited. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should be considered along with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

    Forward Looking Statements:

    This press release includes certain statements that are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and reflect management’s assumptions, views, plans, objectives and projections about the future. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe”, “project”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “intend”, “strategy”, “future”, “opportunity”, “plan”, “may”, “should”, “will”, “would”, “will be”, “will continue”, “will likely result” or similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the value or potential opportunity of the digital asset treasury strategy, its value staying above $50 million, the possibility of acquiring future businesses or completing the referenced pending transactions in a timely manner or at all, the financial performance of those acquisitions and the resulting guidance of having more than $80m of pro forma revenue in 2025, achieving profitability by Q4, and the financial performance of the acquisition targets which have not been audited or reviewed by a PCAOB auditor and could vary materially (a) once that audit or review work is completed and such financials are included in the Company’s reported financials and (b) due to the effect of the exchange rates of foreign currencies which can be volatile, or that the business is at an inflection point in Q2 and that there is a significant opportunity for investors. The reader is cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations of future events. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from the expectations and projections of the Company. Risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: demand for our products and the products of the acquisition targets if the acquisitions are completed (collectively, the “Products”); competition, including technological advances made by and new products released by our competitors and the competitors of the acquisition targets; our ability to accurately forecast consumer demand for our Products and adequately maintain our inventory; and our reliance on a limited number of suppliers and distributors for our Products. A further list and descriptions of these risks, uncertainties and other factors can be found in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

    2025 SECOND QUARTER COMPANY FINANCIAL RESULTS:

    • Net Prescription Products Revenue: The combined net revenue for the Company’s prescription products (Mytesi®, Gelclair®, and Canalevia®-CA1) was approximately $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing an increase of approximately 36% over the combined net revenue in the first quarter of 2025, which totaled approximately $2.2 million, and an increase of approximately 10% over the combined net revenue for the second quarter of 2024, which totaled approximately $2.7 million.

    • Mytesi Prescription Volume: Mytesi prescription volume increased by approximately 6.5% in the second quarter of 2025 over the first quarter of 2025, and Mytesi prescription volume in the second quarter of 2025 was equal to the volume in the second quarter of 2024. Prescription volume differs from invoiced sales volume, which reflects, among other factors, varying buying patterns among specialty pharmacies in the closed network as they manage their inventory levels.

    • Cost of Product Revenue: Total cost of product revenue increased by approximately $0.1 million, from $0.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, due to increased sales of Mytesi.

    • Research and Development: The R&D expense decreased by $0.4 million, from $3.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared to $3.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to the conclusion of the Phase 3 OnTarget clinical trial, which reduced trial-related contract manufacturing services and regulatory activities.

    • Sales and Marketing: The Sales and Marketing expense increased by approximately $1.0 million, from $1.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $2.5 million during the same quarter in 2025. The increase in expense was mostly due to headcount and promotional activities related to commercialization of Gelclair, which began in the end of 2024.

    • General and Administrative: The G&A expense increased by approximately $0.4 million, from $4.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $4.7 million during the same quarter in 2025, largely due to increased legal and compliance expenses.

    • Loss from Operations: Loss from operations increased by $0.8 million, from $7.2 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $8.0 million during the same period in 2025.

    • Net Loss: Net loss attributable to common shareholders increased by approximately $1.0 million, from $9.46 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $10.46 million in the same period in 2025. In addition to the loss from operations:

      • Interest expense decreased by $93,000, from $108,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to approximately $15,000 income in the same period in 2025, primarily due to changing the accounting of certain debt instruments designated at Fair Value Option (FVO).

      • The fair value of financial and hybrid instrument designation at FVO decreased by $0.7 million, from a loss of $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, to a loss of $1.1 million in the same period in 2025, primarily due to fair value adjustments in liability classified warrants and notes payable designated at FVO.

    • Non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA: Non-GAAP recurring EBITDA for the second quarters of 2025 and 2024 were a net loss of $7.9 million and $8.8 million, respectively.

    Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Measures

    The Company supplements its condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis by providing non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP recurring EBITDA, which are considered non-GAAP under applicable SEC rules. Jaguar believes that the disclosure items of these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional information that reflects the basis upon which Company management assesses and operates the business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed in isolation or as substitutes for GAAP net sales and GAAP net loss and are not substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in conformity with GAAP.

    The Company defines non-GAAP EBITDA as net loss before interest expense and other expense, depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense and provision for or benefit from income taxes. The Company defines non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA as non-GAAP EBITDA adjusted for certain non-recurring revenues and expenses. Company management believes that non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA are meaningful indicators of Jaguar’s performance and provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

    Second Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights Compared to Prior Periods

    • Total revenue of approximately $4.3 million, a sequential increase of 20% from Q1 2025 and a decrease of 2% from the prior year period. The decrease in revenue is attributed to the exclusion of the Hawaii clinic (KVC) from 2025 results

    • Services revenue of approximately $3.2 million, a sequential increase of 17% from Q1 2025 and a decrease of 1% from the prior year period

    • Product revenue of $1.1 million, a sequential increase of 21% from Q1 2025 and a decrease of 7% from the prior year period

    • Comparable clinic revenues increased 5.7% from the prior year period

    • Total operating expenses of $6.2 million, an increase of 5% from the prior year period

    • Net loss of $3.0 million, a decrease of $0.4 million from the prior year period

    • Entered an exclusive, non-binding Letter of Intent to acquire 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in New Jersey. Once completed, the acquisition could potentially add up to approximately $2.0 million in (unaudited) revenue

    • Entered into a securities purchase agreement for the issuance and sale of securities for up to $10M under a new convertible preferred stock transaction. The consideration, consisting of a combination of cash and transferred securities, was valued at $1.00 per share

    • Announced the launch of a company-wide incentive and recognition program, which provides vital new engagement tools and offers new avenues to wealth for all employees across their clinic network

    • Integrated a new artificial intelligence (AI) platform in partnership with leading software provider Covetrus into the Company’s medical software. The Company believes this is the only AI platform being offered among publicly traded veterinary clinic networks

    • Acquired 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in central Florida (DeBary). The acquisition is expected to add up to approximately $1.8 million in (unaudited) revenue, and brings the Company’s Florida holdings up to 5 clinics

    • For the second quarter of 2025, total revenue was approximately $4.3 million, a decrease of 2% from the prior year period but an increase of 20% from Q1 2025. Comparable clinic revenues increased 5.7% from the prior year period.

    Second Quarter 2025 Operational Highlights

    • Entered an exclusive, non-binding Letter of Intent to acquire 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in New Jersey. Once completed, the acquisition could potentially add up to approximately $2.0 million in (unaudited) revenue

    • Entered into a securities purchase agreement for the issuance and sale of securities for up to $10M under a new convertible preferred stock transaction. The consideration, consisting of a combination of cash and transferred securities, was valued at $1.00 per share

    • Announced the launch of a company-wide incentive and recognition program, which provides vital new engagement tools and offers new avenues to wealth for all employees across their clinic network

    • Integrated a new artificial intelligence (AI) platform in partnership with leading software provider Covetrus into the Company’s medical software. The Company believes this is the only AI platform being offered among publicly traded veterinary clinic networks

    • Acquired 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in central Florida (DeBary). The acquisition is expected to add up to approximately $1.8 million in (unaudited) revenue, and brings the Company’s Florida holdings up to 5 clinics

    Executive Commentary

    “During the second quarter of 2025, we started to see the rewards of our new initiatives, processes, and hard work over the past 18 months with sequential revenue growth of 20% and year over year organic growth of 5.7%.,” said Kimball Carr, Inspire ‘s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We also grew our portfolio of clinics to 14 with the recently announced acquisition in Florida while significantly improving our liquidity and capital structure with the recently announced preferred stock transaction. I believe this quarter will mark the turning point for our business model and that our top line growth will accelerate going forward.

    Second Quarter 2025 Financial Overview

    All comparisons are made relative to the same period in 2024 unless otherwise stated.

    • For the second quarter of 2025, total revenue was approximately $4.3 million, a decrease of 2% from the prior year period but an increase of 20% from Q1 2025. Comparable clinic revenues increased 5.7% from the prior year period.

    • Service revenue for the second quarter of 2025 decreased $25,000 or 1%, to $3.2 million. The decrease in service revenue is mainly attributed to the exclusion of KVC from 2025 results and reduced practitioner capacity. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of the DeBary animal clinic during Q2 2025.

    • Product revenue for the second quarter 2025 decreased $82,000, or 7%, to $1.1 million. The overall decrease was a result of customers purchasing less products per visit and the exclusion of KVC from 2025 results partially offset by the acquisition of the DeBary animal clinic during Q2 2025.

    • Total operating expenses increased $285,000 or 5%. The increase is primarily due to increased costs of consulting agreements relating to customer outreach and public company costs.

    • Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 decreased $352,000, or 10%, to $3.0 million. The decline in net loss is primarily attributable to the reduction of interest expense and the exclusion of the operating expenses associated with KVC.

    Balance Sheet

    As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.2 million.

  • Vision Marine Positions for Growth with Exclusive Nimbus Boats USA Distribution on Florida’s West Coast

    Vision Marine Positions for Growth with Exclusive Nimbus Boats USA Distribution on Florida’s West Coast

    • Exclusive Letter of Intent for West Coast distribution of Nimbus Boats USA

    • Expands Nautical Ventures’ lineup with premium Scandinavian‑designed models

    • Strategic step to broaden Vision Marine’s portfolio after acquiring Nautical Ventures

    • Enhances choice and experience for boaters in Florida’s top market

    FORT LAUDERDALE, FL / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Vision Marine Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:VMAR) (“Vision Marine” or the “Company”), a leader in premium on‑water experiences and the owner of Florida‑based dealership network Nautical Ventures, today announced that Nautical Ventures has entered into a Letter of Intent with Nimbus Boats USA to exclusively distribute Nimbus powerboats on Florida’s West Coast.

    Nimbus’s Tender, Commuter, Weekender and Coupe series are recognized worldwide for their Scandinavian design, versatile layouts and meticulous construction. With more than seventy years of heritage, Nimbus is one of the respected powerboat builders in Europe and North America, and the largest Scandinavian boat builders by volume. Upon entering into definitive agreements, which the parties expect to conclude by March 31, 2026, Nautical Ventures would be authorized to promote, sell and service these models in Florida’s West Coast region beginning August 1, 2025.

    “Adding Nimbus to our lineup will be a strategic move to broaden our product portfolio and serve customers who are seeking premium day‑cruiser and weekender boats,” said Alexandre Mongeon, Co‑Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Vision Marine. “Our vision is to curate the best selection of boats on the market and deliver an elevated on‑water experience. This partnership will expand our reach in Florida, leverage the sales and service capabilities of Nautical Ventures and align with our plan to build a diversified portfolio that addresses high‑margin segments. We believe it will position us to capitalize on strong consumer demand and favourable market trends, while continuing to support and grow our existing brand relationships.”

    Industry data underpins the commercial rationale for the partnership. Boating and fishing contribute roughly $1.2 trillion to the U.S. outdoor recreation economy and support more than 812,000 jobs [1]. Florida is the largest market for new powerboats, engines and accessories, generating $6.4 billion in sales in 2023, a 3.1 percent increase over the prior year [2]. The National Marine Manufacturers Association projects that new powerboat sales will rebound in 2025, with total boating expenditures expected to rise 3-5 percent above 2024’s record levels [3]. Adventure‑style boats-versatile models designed for day trips, water sports and island hopping-are among the fastest‑growing categories in recreational boating, and Nimbus’s Tender, Commuter, Weekender and Coupe series are squarely in this segment. These trends suggest a sizable and resilient addressable market for high‑quality day boats and weekenders [4].

Adventure‑style boat trend commentary reflects general market observations and is not tied to a specific citation.

    The Nimbus partnership is one of several initiatives Vision Marine is pursuing as it structures and expands its brand portfolio under new leadership. In June 2025, the Company acquired Nautical Ventures, a Florida‑based recreational boat dealership, marina and service provider widely recognized as one of the top networks in the United States and the number‑one Axopar dealership worldwide. Nautical Ventures operates nine high‑volume retail locations across Florida and distributes a diverse range of premium brands- including Axopar, Beneteau, Brabus, Edgewater, Highfield, NorthStar, Smokercraft, Wellcraft -serving customers from pontoons to luxury yacht owners. The acquisition created North America’s first electric boat propulsion and multi‑brand retail company, combining Vision Marine’s high‑voltage E‑Motion™ powertrain and electric boats with Nautical Ventures’ established sales and service infrastructure. Integrating Nimbus into this platform is part of a broader strategy to offer consumers the best products across propulsion types while supporting long‑term growth for all brands in the Nautical Ventures family.

    About Vision Marine

    Vision Marine Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:VMAR) is a leader in high‑performance electric propulsion systems and premium boating experiences. The Company’s proprietary E‑Motion™ 180 horsepower electric outboard is the first high‑voltage system purpose‑built for the marine industry. In June 2025 Vision Marine acquired Nautical Ventures, creating North America’s first electric propulsion and multi‑brand boat retail company. The combined entity operates nine retail locations across Florida and distributes a wide range of prestigious boating brands. By uniting advanced technology with established sales and service infrastructure, Vision Marine aims to accelerate adoption of cleaner, high‑performance boating and provide consumers with an unmatched on‑water experience.

    About Nimbus Boats USA

    Nimbus Boats USA is the American arm of Nimbus Group, a global leader in the design and manufacture of luxury powerboats. With more than seventy years of heritage, Nimbus has earned a reputation for quality, safety, and innovation, and is the largest Scandinavian boat builder by volume. Its award-winning Tender, Commuter, Weekender, and Coupe series are sold through an extensive international dealer network spanning more than fifty countries. [5].

  • Surgical Tourism: Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Meegan Gruber Warns of Hidden Patient Risks

    Surgical Tourism: Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Meegan Gruber Warns of Hidden Patient Risks

    Dr. Gruber provides a guide for surgeon evaluation alongside complication prevention strategies and domestic alternative options which patients should consider.

    TAMPA, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Dr. Meegan Gruber, MD, PhD, who serves as a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon warns patients to research all safety aspects of surgical tourism prior to scheduling foreign procedures. Each year approximately 150,000 to 320,000 U.S. citizens choose to get medical treatment abroad for cosmetic surgery operations which presents multiple medical and practical and legal dangers to patients when not properly organized.

    The appeal of low costs and immediate appointment availability together with eye-catching before-and-after images motivates Dr. Gruber. “But surgery is not a vacation. The choice of surgical location and your operating doctor along with your preoperative and postoperative care management process matters equally to the surgical procedure itself.

    Five risks patients often underestimate

    • Drug-resistant infections. Medical facilities with poor sterilization methods and insufficient oversight have caused difficult to treat infection outbreaks during surgical procedures. The verification process of infection control standards and development of concrete follow-up plans stands as an essential requirement.

    • Travel + surgery = clot risk. The combination of body contouring surgery with extended periods of travel by flight or car increases the chances of developing DVT/PE. Your surgeon must advise you to spend recovery time in the hospital before traveling home.

    • Credentials and facilities vary. American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) certification stands as the specialty standard because ABMS recognizes it in the United States. The addition of hospital OR credentialing with AAAHC or QUAD A facility accreditation enhances patient safety standards.

    • Continuity-of-care gaps. Local physicians face delays in treating complications because they do not have access to your operative records or implant details which results in increased costs.

    • Limited legal and financial recourse. The different legal systems of various countries create obstacles to resolving problems because each jurisdiction has its own approach to medical malpractice and device monitoring and patient safeguards.

    A quick safety checklist from Dr. Gruber

    • Check if the surgeon holds ABPS certification and matches their name and specialty while asking about their experience performing your target procedure.

    • Verify that your medical facility holds accreditation from AAAHC or QUAD A or hospital OR status and that emergency procedures are in place.

    • The anesthesiology details must be confirmed together with information about who will provide the anesthesia. Local anesthesia is suitable for qualified patients but general anesthesia is safer in certain cases and full information about the plan should be provided.

    • Your recovery period needs to be planned to reduce blood clot risks as well as get medical clearance before departing.

    • Before your trip you need to arrange follow-up care through defining the number of visits and weekend/night coverage and establishing what will happen during urgent medical situations.

    Safer alternatives, without crossing borders

    High-quality care performed domestically near patients’ homes provides the safest option when patients need full continuity of medical services before and after surgery. The patients at Gruber Plastic Surgery undergo candidacy screening and receive photography-guided planning and meticulous aftercare services. Local-anesthesia patients maintain continuous communication with their healthcare team during surgical procedures and general anesthesia patients receive detailed preoperative and postoperative monitoring plans. The Out of Town Patient Guide at our practice assists patients who travel within the United States to organize safe medical itineraries with suitable recovery periods and postoperative appointments.

    A word from Dr. Gruber

    “Prioritize safety over savings. Patients must verify professional credentials while selecting facilities that have received accreditation and they need to allow sufficient time for safe recovery. When you are not sure about something, request a second medical opinion. Our team along with I provide risk-focused consults to help you make well-informed decisions with confidence.”
    About Gruber Plastic Surgery

    Gruber Plastic Surgery, located in Tampa, FL, is led by Dr. Meegan Gruber, Ph.D., board-certified plastic surgeon renowned for her pioneering work in awake plastic surgery.
