“Our website makes the bold claim that we invented orthopedic stem cell therapy. In fact, that’s true. I, and my partner, John Schultz, began using stem cells to treat orthopedic issues, like knee arthritis, shoulder rotator cuff tears, and low-back disc issues, back in 2005, before anyone else. It was years before there was even another provider interested. Hence, we’ve learned a lot about what works and what doesn’t.”
