Short YouTube interview (patient testimonial) in which Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter talks with a patient, Hector, at Pinnacle Integrative Orthopedics and Sports Medicine about Hector’s positive experience following a tailored orthobiologics program for knee pain. The excerpt includes praise for the clinic, thanks for improved walking, and Hector’s age (89).
89.
What would you tell someone who was considering coming to our clinic here at Pinnacle Integrative Orthopedics and Sports Medicine?
Okay. I would tell them that you have to come because you do a real good job. And I'll see you with my dad.
Fantastic. I love it. Now, do you have any feedback for us? Anything that you especially appreciate about the way that we do things?
Yeah. I'd like to thank you because, like I said, I know that he was in pain all the time and he was hard time to walk and everything. I know he's walking fine.
Fantastic. So Hector is.
Tell me again, Hector's age. How old are you?
89.
89 years young. So when Hector came to us, and he's got a little bit of early confusion, and so really, operations were not a good idea. So doing an operation for him was a really bad idea. He had knees that were so bad that we were actually concerned of him falling and breaking a bone. So what we did for him is we tailored an orthobiologics program. We utilized our PRP program, and we treated his knees. That is a program where we treat the knees with PRP and then we do some laser therapy treatments a couple of times a week. And then we have the patient come back in six weeks to do a second PRP injection. And his symptoms are over 90% resolved. He's getting around and has excellent mobility, and he's had no problems from the injections whatsoever. We just wanted to share his excellent outcome with the rest of our patients.
