Many years ago, Dr. Peterson came to realize that most musculoskletal chronic pain problems are due to injuries that never healed, or tissue that has degenerated. Pharmaceuticals and traditional treatments do not solve these problems.
In 1991, Dr. Peterson began doing Prolotherapy, which achieved tremendous results with chronic problems. Dr. Peterson was the first medical doctor in Oregon to use Platelet Rich Plasma to heal old unhealed injuries and tissue degeneration. His practice has continued to evolve with advancements in regenerative medicine. He now uses amniotic cells derived from placental tissue for severe degenerative issues. As a pioneer in the field, Dr. Peterson brings unique, and successful approach to Lane County.
As you search the internet you will see a lot of websites promoting their version of Stem Cell Treatment as the best. Dr. Peterson has studied this extensively and has attended many seminars on this subject. He has found that in middle-aged and elderly patients, amniotic cells are the best option.
