About Us
Why the name Rhodes?
Embracing my heritage, my last name, Rodas, echoes the Greek origin of Rhodes, or Rodos. Coincidentally or not, as I was visiting the Island of Rhodes in Greece, I dreamed of having my own practice, helping women and men look and feel better, and age gracefully through medical treatments. Since Aesthetics and beauty have long been linked to Greek mythology, the name seemed perfect for our charming Boutique Medical Spa located in the heart of Bakersfield, California.
