SHERRI’S TESTIMONIAL WITH BIOLOGIC THERAPY
Hi, my name is Sheri. I am 62 years young. I am one who has always been very active. I love to work out, swim, bike, hiking and travel. Approximately 2 1/2 years ago It became too difficult to do any of these activities due to pain and no one was able to pinpoint what the problem was. I’ve seen a back surgeon, sports pain specialist, and finally a neurologist who referred me to Dr. Wolff. I really liked him at the first visit. It was like someone was actually hearing me. He diagnosed my problem as tendonosis in both legs and treated me with PRP and Biologics. Before the procedure he told me that this was not a quick fix and it could take time for the tendons to heal. At about 3 1/2 months positive changes started and by five months I was pretty much back to normal. Today I’m pain-free. I am so grateful to Dr. Wolff and his staff. They were professional and very supportive. I highly recommend all of them. Thank you.
