Where in New Jersey or in the USA is this type of treatment being offered?
Thanks

Hi Randy,
I am not sure how far the cell therapy has advanced in the USA for hips that are bone on bone but I will forward your comment on. In the UK they were bone on bone which is why the bone mix was used however the procedure they use is more invasive than the American model where I believe they layer the treatments. It is all in experimental stages but definitely something to consider before replacement. Having said this my husband is doing excellent with the resurfaced hips…they have given him his life back

Thanks for the info. I would like to look into this and give it a try. My surgeon I just met with wants to do the total hip replacement, I guess my xray looks like bone on bone. Can the cell therapy help that? Thanks, Randy
