Quotes From This Episode
The ability to be able to affect patient outcome to improve healing and return patients to their pre-injury level using biology is something that’s exciting. And there are a lot of companies that are really working on it. It has come such a far away in the last few years. And I think if we have this conversation five years later, there’s gonna be even more to talk about as well.

What we know is that you can have the same patient with the same presentation and different patients will get better with different things…we know it’s not a precise cookbook formula because something different works for everyone. My mentor, Dr. Frank McHugh at University of Virginia, would always talk about the art and science of sports medicine. And that’s exactly what it is. So figuring out that art and science for each individual patient is what’s going to give you a maximum chance for success.

I think our ability to be able to document with hard data what our clinical impressions are is very impactful. And it’s hard to argue with the numbers as long as you’ve been able to collect that data in an efficient fashion. So I think that the next stage is going to strengthen our position. And you know who ultimately benefits from all this? The patients. And that’s what it’s all about.
