This treatment is not covered by insurance, nor is it cheap $3000/$5000. This includes all your MRI's, Ultra Sounds and X-rays. There is one injection and you walk out. Sounds to good to be true. I need some good input.
Here is a current thread about the same subject.

I say beware of any meeting in a hotel and a free lunch. They are trying to SELL you something.

Here is the thread.

Doctors using Stem Cells
