Dōcerē Medical Spa & Laser Center
Clinic Profile
Dōcerē Medical Spa & Laser Center (doceremedspa.com) is a single-location, full-service medical spa in Strongsville, Ohio, located at 10633 Pearl Road. The name is derived from the Latin word docere, meaning “to teach” — a philosophy reflected in the practice’s commitment to patient education, personalized care, and natural-looking results. The practice has been serving patients since 2009 and serves clients from Strongsville, Cleveland, North Royalton, Brunswick, Middleburg Heights, Berea, Parma, and the wider Northeast Ohio region.
Dōcerē is structured as a CoolSculpting Certified practice with DualSculpting capability, allowing simultaneous treatments to reduce procedure time. Its four stated pillars of care are: Safety, Comfort, Service, and Results. The spa is connected to Docere Plastic Surgery (led by Dr. Ray Seballos), to which the spa coordinates referrals when surgical options are more appropriate.
The spa’s facility is set against the tranquil backdrop of Mill Stream Reservation, offering an Italian villa-style interior with a patio, waterfall, and stream views — designed to feel more like a luxury spa than a clinical setting.

Background and History
Dōcerē Medical Spa & Laser Center was established in 2009 by owner Lori Leonard. Over more than 16 years, the practice has grown into a comprehensive medical spa offering an expansive range of treatments while maintaining its commitment to personalized care and subtle, natural results.
The spa operates in partnership with Docere Plastic Surgery, led by Dr. Ray Seballos, creating a continuum of care from non-surgical to surgical aesthetic solutions. In recent years, the practice expanded its offerings to include a Weight Management + Wellness Membership program at $99/month, reflecting the growing demand for medically guided weight loss support in conjunction with aesthetic body treatments. The program is led by a Nurse Practitioner.
A free consultation is offered to all new patients as the starting point for every treatment plan.

Testimonials and Quotes
The following testimonials are sourced from the Dōcerē Medical Spa website and Yelp:
- “She is an excellent masseuse and very knowledgeable. Theresa is also an amazing esthetician! She is well informed about skin care and always willing to answer all questions. Do something nice for yourself!” — Dōcerē website
- “I had a great experience with Dōcerē Medical Spa & Laser Center. The environment is great and the staff is welcoming. I will highly recommend this place if you are looking for having an enjoyable and relaxing facial with great results.” — Dōcerē website
- “I have been here a few times for facials, and it is always a great experience. Maggie is kind and knowledgeable. My only criticism is that there is a TV in the waiting area that is very loud and not very relaxing. When the fireplace is going in the winter, it’s a calming experience.” — Dōcerē website
- “Dr. Ripepi was very friendly and informative, he took time to explain the entire laser process, how foot fungus occurs in most people, and how long for the process to fully get rid of the fungus. The procedure was quick and thorough.” — Groupon review
