If you don’t see a doctor listed on the web site then you are probably looking at a marketing website and not a legitimate medical clinic.
If you don’t see the doctor’s full name and medical degree…..ask yourself, why would a clinic not want to give a patient that information?
If you have joint pain or back pain or have been told you need orthopedic surgery….please come to our regenerative medicine seminar this Thursday evening. Don Buford, MD, a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon, will lead a question and answer seminar designed to protect patients from stem cell scams and to help patients decide when PRP or stem cell injections might be a good treatment option.
In this 8 minute training video, Don Buford, MD demonstrates the flexibility of the Trice Medical dynamic imaging tablet based platform that includes a fu based ultrasound and a single stick disposable needle arthroscope that can be used for diagnostic arthroscopy under local anesthesia at any location. The Mi-Ultra is a full featured ultrasound unit. The mi-eye2 is the only single stick disposable needle arthroscope on the market…..with no need for additional cannulas. Both imaging modalities are available and interchangeable on a single tablet!
The Dallas PRP and Stem Cell Institute will soon be changing names to reflect the expansion of orthobiologic services available at the clinic.
A regenerative medicine doctor (Dr. Charles Lee) recently asked the CBER division of the FDA if Wharton’s Jelly products were being correctly regulated and sold for use in humans. Guess what? The FDA said “NO”. All allograft stem cell Wharton’s Jelly products currently on the market in the USA are being sold in violation of FDA regulations. Avoid any company and ALL doctors and clinics selling this stuff. On top of it all….there is no science that it even works for human orthopedic conditions anyway. This is why we only use bone marrow derived stem cells from your own body.
The Texas Orthobiologic Institute’s next free Regenerative Medicine seminar will be Thursday night, August 29th from 7pm – 8pm at our office location at 1015 N. Carroll, #2000, Dallas, TX 75204.
The Dallas PRP and Stem Cell Institute/Texas Orthobiologic Institute “Know Series” Video #9. In this short video clip Don Buford, MD answers a surprisingly common question asked by patients…..”Will my knee xrays get better after a stem cell injection” As it turns out, there are many “stem cell” clinics running stem cell seminars at which patients are told that their cartilage will completely regenerate and that their X-rays will get better. This is not proven by any published study in orthopedics and patients should not be told this as a sales ploy.
TOBI is one of the world’s largest orthobiologic meetings attended by doctors from around the world. Dr. Buford is a frequent lecturer and instructor at TOBI and will be there once again June 6-8, 2019!
Many unscrupulous regenerative medicine clinics are telling patients that because their clinic is doing a “study”, or sometimes an “IRB study”, their procedures are allowed by the FDA. This is simply not true. Many orthobiologics are regulated by the FDA and if there are claims of stem cells in the product, then the FDA definitely is involved.
In this short video clip Don Buford, MD answers a surprisingly common question asked by patients…..”Do I need special massages to make these injections more effective?” As it turns out, there are several local DFW “stem cell” clinics running stem cell seminars at which patients are sold a package that includes massages “….to help regenerate the joint after the injection”
