In this super-fascinating episode, Amit and Jeff interview Dr. Tom Buchheit: anesthesiologist, pain physician, scientist and regenerative medicine specialist. Tom takes us through the current thinking on the beneficial role of immune stimulation in healing musculoskeletal and neural tissues, teaches us about how he uses autologous conditioned serum, platelet-rich plasma, stem cell therapy and nerve hydrodissection to help patients in his clinic. It's a deep-dive into a growing and exciting field that many of us will experience, on one side of the needle or the other. 🔗 Dr. Buchheit's book: "Healing Joints and Nerves: Immune Stimulation and the New Science of Regenerative Therapies". https://tinyurl.com/yd37pad6
