Clinician Snibby argues most meniscus tears and mild arthritis don't require surgery. He uses PRP and exosome injections to reduce inflammation and promote healing instead, keeping patients active. Surgery stays available if conservative treatment fails.
How do we avoid surgery? A lot of people come to me because they say, go to Snibby, because if you don't need the surgery, he will tell you. I'm more popular from the people I didn't operate on than the ones I did. I don't operate on your MRI, I operate on how you feel. You could have a meniscus tear, a little arthritis, and you say, well, I can play golf 5 days a week and I'm exercising, working out. So I'm like, what's the problem? These injections help continue the process of healing and promote healing into the joints, increase blood flow, lower inflammation. And all of these injections that we do, whether it's PRP, whether it's exosomes, or just at the tip of the iceberg of this thing, you can always have surgery, right? You can have surgery tomorrow, you can have surgery 3 years from now. I can always operate on you, and if I do it, I'll do a good job. But right now, you don't need it.
