Biologic treatments for painful orthopedic conditions and injuries will be the topic of discussion with Dr. Demetris Delos, of Orthopaedic & Neurosurgery Specialists (ONS), at a free seminar on Wednesday, March 11 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at Greenwich Hospital.
There are many claims about the healing powers of biologic treatments such as stem cells, platelet rich plasma and cartilage therapies, but not all of them are supported by fact. Regenerative medicine expert, Dr. Delos, will separate the science from science fiction by discussing the research and proven results for treatments that are in use today. His talk will also cover the conditions that can benefit from these treatments and why, and he will offer insight into the promising studies that could shape the future of medicine. Q & A will follow.
The event is free and open to the public, but registration is requested. To register, call 888-305-9253 or visit greenwichhospital.org
