“Osteoarthritis runs in my family and by the age of 60, I was in constant pain in the left knee. The only option offered me was knee replacement – until I met Dr. Broyles. While the stem cell procedure is not easy, nor quick, I have seen definite improvement in my knee after 18 months. It is not back 100%, but better than before. The stem cell procedure works better on younger people, but some older people, if their knees are not too deteriorated, who are willing to deal with the pain and rehab, have another option. I think this procedure will improve with time and experience. Someday, knee replacements may not be necessary at all. Dr. Broyles is one of the exceptional, caring physicians pioneering this new approach."
