Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells are precursor cells that have the potential to
develop into bone, cartilage, ligament, or organ tissue.
These cells when used therapeutically can be used for
osteoarthritis pain management. Studies have shown
that stem cell therapy improved arthritis associated with
elbow and hip dysplasia.
Additional diseases show promise for treatment using
stem cell therapy such as: auto-immune diseases, liver
disease, heart disease, kidney disease, and
neurological disorders.
To obtain your dogs stem cells, a surgical procedure is
performed that collects 1-2 tablespoons of fat. This fat
is then processed by Vet-Stem and returned within 48
hours for interarticular or intravenous injection.
Additional samples are frozen for future use.
