This video captures a nine-week post-procedure testimonial with Dr. Don Buford and Carl, an active 55-year-old cyclist who received a bone marrow-derived stem cell injection for hip arthritis. Prior to the procedure, Carl was in constant, acute pain, relied on daily anti-inflammatory medication, and had to sleep with pillows between his legs just to rest. Having been told by other doctors that he needed a total hip replacement, Carl sought out Dr. Buford's orthobiologic treatment specifically to delay major surgery as long as possible.
Nine weeks after the stem cell treatment, Carl reports that he is completely pain-free and has been able to stop taking his daily anti-inflammatory medication. He is back to cycling very hard without any post-workout discomfort and can sleep comfortably without the use of specialized pillows. Highly pleased with the outcome, Carl feels the procedure has successfully bought him significant time before ever needing to consider a joint replacement.
