PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma, which is a medical treatment where a sample of a patient’s blood is taken, spun in a centrifuge, and the resulting platelets are injected into an area of the body that is diseased or damaged. It is used for conditions such as rotator cuff tears, tennis elbow, and early stages of arthritis. PRP is not a one-size-fits-all treatment and its effectiveness depends on the diagnosis. While it can be highly effective for certain conditions, it may not work for everyone.

If you’re interested in PRP injections for an orthopedic condition you have, I invite you to come in and see if you might be a candidate for this treatment.
