Regenerative Orthopedic case of the week – October 4, 2022

Glenda presented last year with 18 months of right knee arthritis pain. She decided to have regenerative treatment using stem cells from her own fat tissue. This provided significant improvement in her pain and function. She recently tripped and fell injuring the right knee.
She presented today for evaluation of her new pain after the recent fall. Today’s X-rays, 11 months after treatment, reveal substantial increase in her right knee joint space cartilage! The vast majority of my regenerative stem cell patients show improved cartilage joint space on X-rays one year out from procedure.
Come see what regenerative orthopedics can do for you!
