Issue: Torn Rotator Cuff, frozen shoulder. MRI and ultrasound confirmed. Baseline Unable to lift arm more than 80 deg from floor in front of me. Unable raise arm to side high enough to put on deodorant. Pain down side of bicep area into top of shoulder. 8 on a 10 point scale at all times. Could not lift more than 2 lbs, could not extend arm out. Waking up at night due to pain of rolling over on it. Elapsed duration since treatment 6 Weeks PT: 4 Weeks 2X week Results: I am 80% or more recovered at this point. I can raise arm within 3 inches of my "good" arm on a wall. I can raise arm over my head with mostly full range of motion. I can reach 2/3 of the way behind my back compared to good side. I am in the process of moving and have been lifting and carrying boxes of more than 40 lbs. No longer have pain in bicep area. Residual pain in shoulder from tight tendons and muscles from frozen shoulder. Doing daily stretching to help with that. (It sucks but do it!) Take Tylenol one a week a most for moderate discomfort when I over do it. Use heat at night for 30 min to help loosen it up. If I went surgical route I would still be in a sling and not have started rehab yet. After 5 knee surgeries I did not want to get cut again. I had great doubts going in and was very skeptical but took the risk to avoid getting cut. So glad I did. Expensive yes. Worth it? YES.

I have had many procedures done for my facet arthritis at the Denver location. The doctors are professional and extremely knowledgeable. I can't have steroids and the platelet procedures to my facets gives me good pain relief for 3-6 months at a time with absolutely no side effects. I had stem cells to my facets in the Cayman also but the results were only slightly better than PRP. I am a tough case and my doctor goes above and beyond to help me. However, the procedures are quite pricey. You can drop $2000 on spinal PRP easily, but traditional medicine has nothing to offer that will help. Steroids and fusion just lead to more problems down the road. I give 5 stars for the doctors and procedures but minus 1 star for price.

I was very pleased with my stem cell procedures - on both knees! I was able to do some easy skiing about 4 months post-procedure. I had a few minor twinges in different places in my knees, but NOT in the spots that had previously been very painful. I was so impressed!

it's only been two and a half weeks since my shot. my knee was tender for about 10-12 days but is getting better now. over all my knee is better than before the first shot last oct. it has leveled off and hadn't changed much in the last 3-4 months. we will see what the new shot does and if there is any improvement. I hope so.

It's been 9 months since my stem cell therapy in my left knee for lack of cartilage. It has drastically improved, but I realize it will never be back to 100% as before. I am able to do activities now where as before I was severely limited. I would give it 5 stars, but was really hoping to be back at 100%.

Well organized and highly skilled clinician and staff. My only “complaint” is the cost (few patients can afford)

I had great pain relief in my L knee for approximately 5 months. I think my joint inflammation after time destroyed my stem cells. Whatever destructive process caused my bone on bone arthritis, persisted. I think the key is to decrease the inflammation prior to the stem cell therapy. I don't think more stem cells will be helpful. I still think that it was worth trying initially

My experience was great, especially Dr Azuike. I am so glad I had the stem cells. My knees still aren't perfect, but so much better. I wish I had the right one done before it got to the bone-on-bone stage.
