How are the latest advancements in biologic therapy used?

Biologic therapy is a simple, non-surgical outpatient procedure, Dr. Wolff carefully injects
the injured area of the body using either fluoroscopically guided x-ray or ultrasound to ensure accuracy of needle tip placement and to maximize your safety and comfort. Light, conscious, sedation is available when requested at our state-of-the-art surgery center. Once injected, the highly concentrated nutrients and proteins start to work on a cellular level and begin to:

  • reduce inflammation
  • initiate repair of the affected cells
  • stimulate the production (regeneration!) of new healthy tissue

What are the benefits?

Relieved to avoid the need for invasive surgery, our patients have reported many benefits with biologic therapy. Compared to traditional treatments such as steroids, narcotics or surgery, biologic therapy is natural, regenerative and non-toxic. There is minimal risk of rejection or infection with safe, image-guided injections. Results may be noticed after several weeks but often continue to improve for 3-6 months before full benefit is achieved. Recognizing that everyone’s injury and healing process is different, treatment plans are individually tailored for each patient to achieve optimal results.

Ask Questions

As with any newer treatment, patients can understandably wonder about their efficacy, benefits and risks. Clinical studies have shown that biologic therapy stimulates a faster and more complete repair of various conditions, ultimately resulting in a patient’s ability to function with less pain and return to an active life style. Don’t hesitate to ask Dr. Wolff during your consultation appointment and he will be happy to educate and answer all your questions.

"I went to see Dr. Wolff in April for lower back pain. I have received over the last 8 years numerous cortisone injections as well as RF to alleviate my pain. This treatment was temporary and the pain always returned. A firefighter friend of mine went to see Dr. Wolff and she received PRP treatment for her injury. Dr. Wolff and Carole are such great kind and caring people. Dr. Wolff suggested and explained the treatment and listened to my many questions. Dr. Wolff then injected my back with the PRP and to date I'm 60% better. Today, I am receiving one additional injection to my stubborn S-I joint. Fingers crossed this final one will do the trick. I would recommend Dr. Wolff and his RN Carole to anyone who hasn't had relief from any other treatment for lower back pain."

"Dr. Wolff was very thorough with my consultation. He explained my options for treatment and made me feel more like a close friend or family member not just a patient. All of the staff I have interacted with have been very helpful and caring. I can’t say enough good things about Callie, she is quick to respond to emails and get me everything to prepare for my Discseel procedure. My procedure went smoothly, Dr Wolff found a tear in my disc which explained my pain being so high. Pre procedure I couldn’t sit at all if I did it would be painful and standing up and walking was difficult. I can sit and eat with my family for the first time in over 8 months I am so thankful for the Discseel® procedure it kept me from having surgery and fusing my lower back."

"The NP Sheila carefully assessed and really listened to my pain problems! And Dr Wolff takes good care to listen, and each procedure has been very helpful. I absolutely refuse to take scheduled drugs/narcotics, and this office has many very helpful options! My pain problems are a work in progress, but I feel we keep moving in the right direction, and very safely! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Southwest Spine & Sports!"

"Following years troubleshooting chronic back pain with no success, I was introduced to Dr. Wolff who identified my key issues and offered a number of solutions.  After confirming I would be an ideal candidate, I opted for the Discseel® procedure, and, as discussed, my back pain began improving within a matter of weeks.  Six months later, I am pleased with the results while I progress through physical therapy and continue to improve. I am grateful for Dr. Wolff and the staff at Southwest Spine & Sports for helping me work through a serious condition and making the entire process rather painless."
