My orthopedic doctor offered PRP treatment after my mid-April arthroscopic surgery/left knee, but he says it is successful only 60% of the time, is not covered by insurance, and costs in the range of $1,200. I did not opt for it.

Advances in non-surgical treatments are happening fast (hopefully that continues). Plasma and Stem-Cell derived treatments seem to hold much promise.
