Retired Nurse Achieves Rapid Post-Surgical Healing and Weight Loss Through Holistic Orthopedic Care

I liked the idea of the stem cell therapy and trying to avoid having surgery, which ultimately I developed a bone spur and I did have to have surgery. But I don't regret going through the stem cell treatment because I've healed extremely well from the surgery, and even my incision looks very advanced. It looks like a year-old incision and it's been 3 1/2 months. My name is Laura Stone Birch. I live in Wichita Falls, Texas. I'm a retired LVN. I was struggling to, like, even do short shopping trips 'cause my right knee would hurt so bad and I would be limping so bad. By the time I got through that even my hip and lower back were hurting. I'd have to go home and take pain medicine and ice packs, hot packs, all of that sort of thing. I see a rheumatologist for rheumatoid arthritis. I tried oral medications, physical therapy, steroid injections in my knee, which only gave me very short-term relief. I was just mainly going with the idea of treating my knee, and when I saw their program of just, kind of, a holistic approach to medicine and just getting healthy in general, losing weight and nutrition, balancing hormones and all of the things that they do there, I was kind of excited to give it a little try because I've struggled with weight loss for years. got on the semaglutide, did the nutrition program and lost quite a bit of weight that helped a little bit with pain. And then the stem cell treatment did help some with the knee pain and boosted my body's, you know, pain fighting ability, It seemed like for quite a while. Dr. Schachter and his staff are wonderful. You can go in there and talk to them about anything. They'll listen. Dr. Schachter went over and above. He worked with me a little more and made me feel confident that he cared about me as a person and a patient. He's not, like, just trying to sell a program. He believes in what he's doing and it does work. I would absolutely use him again anytime for any orthopedic surgery that I needed.
