As a companion piece to Keith Cronin's excellent article
on the use
of PRP in which the both
sides of the
debate about PRP are presented, and based
on a point - counterpoint
debate conducted via email between the two experts whose views are expressed in Keith's piece, Dr. Nathan Mall, associate physician for the St. Louis Cardinals and Director for the St. Louis Center for Cartilage Restoration and RepairRegeneration Orthopedics, and Andrew M. Blecher MD, a Primary
Care Sports Medicine physician and Medical Director
of the Center for Rehabilitation Medicine at the Southern California Orthopedic Institute in Van Nuys, California, here are what Drs. Mall and Blecher have to say about the current state
of the research
on PRP.
Whatever anyone thinks about charter schools or district schools, education reformers or teachers unions, Democrats or Republicans, or any other false choice that has divided our politics and our district, let's stipulate that everyone
on all
sides of this
debate are good people who
care about kids.
