Chapters

Hello, it's Dr. Joshua Schachter, Pinnacle Integrative Orthopedics and Sports Medicine in downtown Wichita Falls, Texas. Yeah, we're very close to Shepherd Air Force Base and it's one of our greatest pleasures to take care of our active duty military personnel. It is our greatest honor and we are very grateful to you for everything that you do. It's also my great pleasure to let you know that Tricare will now cover PRP injections for your knee or your elbow complaints. So if you've had a long term knee or elbow problem, if you're dealing with some pain, you want to try to avoid damaging and painful steroid injections, if you want to do something that's healthier for your body and it's likely to last much longer than other interventions, if you're trying to avoid surgery and the downtime associated with that, or if you'd want to just stay in your very important military job, whether that's fighter pilot, loading bombs on a plane, or being an accountant, we would love to talk to you about these innovative new options. So please get with your flight surgeon and ask for a referral. And we're happy to see you. You can also give us a call 940-285-5007. You can visit us on our website and that'll be attached below. You can follow me on TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. And I look forward to seeing you soon. Thank you again for your service.
