Early medical evaluation and imag- ing is key... In general many acute conditions can be managed proper- ly before it becomes a long-lasing chronic issue.
What other medical services do you offer? Benefits or Outcomes? Along the same line is Stem Cell infusion treatments. We purchase the embryonic Stem cells and inject them for tissue rejuvenation. Like PRP there are many indications for Stem cell treatments and again most recently we utilize stem cells in the form of IV infusion therapy that is quite exciting and again has many new implications.

Please explain the process of Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP)? The benefits or outcomes? We simply use patient’s own stem cells and stimulants and healing factors of their own blood and inject it where it’s needed.
For equestrian athletes, injury is very common to the knees (meniscus tears, ACL), shoulders, back and neck injuries. What is the timeline for the procedure to work? Are there restrictions to the patient while waiting for the procedure to process? The treatment has somewhat of a delayed
effect...It can take up to 6-8 weeks to fully work, however we have seen quicker responses in some patients. There are minimal restrictions and there in zero downtime after performing this procedure.
How do you determine if someone is a candidate for this pro- cedure? How soon could the equestrian athlete or any athlete return to competing? We usually obtain X-ray and MRI prior to making that determination. We usually recommend patients decrease their daily work load by 25% for few weeks after the treatment and gradually return to base- line activity level.
Not only is (PRP) used for chronic conditions, it also benefits dermatology, (skin rejuvenation, skin resurfacing), to enhance appearance. Explain that process? Benefits and Outcomes? It is indeed a popular procedure and rather effective. One common procedure is widely known as “Vampire Facial”. We pair up micro-nee- dling with PRP injection for facial rejuvenation and the procedure takes around 45 minutes.
Medicine is advancing rapidly, procedures, treatments and pharmaceuticals. What is on the horizon that you feel will ben- efit patients? There is lots of recent focus on regenerative medicine and Stem cell therapy. Specific fasting based diet and specific daily supplements can also enhance the effect of Stem cell therapy. That is a new topic and a new line of treatment that I have started to Offer in our Prescott office and I’m very excited about its future.
On preventative medicine; a young athlete falls injures their knee. What would you recommend to them to prevent having long term effects?
Your Horses”. What are some of things you do to stay healthy? Lots of Cardio Exercise, Proper diet and adequate sleep. Listening to good music also helps.
