Orthobiologics Podcast
The Orthobiologics Podcast was born to separate fact from fiction in the branch of regenerative medicine where Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), Stem Cells (BMAC), and Prolotherapy are used to improve Orthopedic outcomes with lower risk. Whether used in place of surgery or in combination with surgery, evidence-based Orthobiologics can help athletes with new injuries, weekend warriors with old injuries, or even elderly patients with degenerative conditions like arthritis enhance their function and improve the quality of their life.

Episode 2
This episode describes the science behind PRP (platelet rich plasma) and how we use it in Orthopedics and Sports Medicine. We discuss the ways in which the current evidence shows it can help people with tendon and joint injuries. We also discuss key components of PRP and why not all PRP is created equal so that you can ask your doctor how to get the best treatment tailored to your particular concern. Have questions?
