I've had surgery on left shoulder. Now the orthopedic surgeon said my right shoulder is worse. Bone on bone. He has recommended a complete shoulder replacement. I'm getting a second opinion Wednesday. I know of someone else who had stem cell. Trying to keep my options open. I do not really want to have complete replacement.
Hello @jpdunlap, and welcome to Connect. Are you asking if there are return appointments for Mayo Clinic's Regenerative Medicine or just for stem cell therapy in general? If you are curious about Stem Cell therapy treatment at Mayo Clinic, or anywhere else, I recommend calling the following number, 844-276-2003, or going to the following website http://www.mayo.edu/research/centers-programs/center-regenerative-medicine/patient-care/clinical-trials.
The consult service should be able to better answer your questions about stem cell therapy. @jpdunlap, if you don't mind sharing, do you have issues with your shoulder or are you just wondering about stem cells?
