Description
Surgery-first is old-school thinking. Dr. Lazar's customized practice to treating injuries includes individualized care and pain management through an integrative approach. He has found ways to provide excellent care and rapid healing through non-surgical orthopedic procedures.
Among the leading edge of available pain and injury management treatments offered today is of state-of-the-art Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatments and Stem Cell Injection Therapy, also called Regenerative Injection Therapy. Dr. Lazar augments the PRP treatment with stem cells taken from fat grafts or bone marrow to treat torn tendons, ligaments and arthritic joints. PRP and stem cell injection is an important avenue for patients with torn muscles and damaged nerves to explore as well as for those who may need a joint stabilized.
Whether it's a new injury or a chronic one, from knees and elbows and hands to hips and spine, Dr. Lazar can formulate an approach that is non-surgical and provides superior relief. Professional athletes and weekend warriors, musicians and performers - in fact everyone who puts stress on his or her body, can feel the benefits of Dr. Lazar's treatments. They can walk better, move better, feel better, live better.Surgery has its place - but alternatives to surgery should be considered first. The body's remarkable healing powers and modern medicine make a powerful combination. In Beyond the Knife, Dr. Lazar explains why. It's compelling and important reading.
Dr. Lazar is the 2011 winner of the Excellence in Health Care Awards -- Innovator category, presented by the South Florida Business Journal.
