(An Iowa Capital Dispatch report) – The medical director of a central Iowa health spa has been fined $10,000 for failing to adequately supervise work at the spa. Earlier this month, the Iowa Board of Medicine charged Dr. Daniel Kollmorgen with violating state standards of practice for medical directors. According to the board, Kollmorgen has served as the medical director of 4Ever Young, a medical spa in Waukee, since July 2024. At the same time, he has allegedly worked two to three days per week in Oskaloosa, 80 miles from the Waukee business.

As medical director at 4Ever Young, Kollmorgen was required by law to review the work of nurse practitioners, which included patient histories, physicals and lab work, the board alleges. When board investigators visited the spa in June 2025, they allegedly observed that Kollmorgen was largely working remotely and was onsite at the spa roughly two to three hours per month.

The board alleges Kollmorgen violated state standards that called for him to be physically located, at all times, within 60 miles of the spa, and which also required him to provide at least four hours per week of in-person staff supervision. “Nor did he provide onsite review of medical aesthetic services,” the board alleged.

To settle the case, Kollmorgen agreed to accept a warning from the board and pay a $10,000 civil penalty.
