Over the years, without soliciting patients for their comments, I have received gifts, words of praise, and sentiments of deep gratitude for what Prolotherapy has done for patients. I have even had a song written for me and sung by the patient’s wife.

Does one really need a special celebrity to testify for a principle of nature in order to be convinced? Former Surgeon General Dr. Koop, owner of Muscle and Fitness magazine, Ben Weider, and the Hulk, Lou Ferrigno, all testify how Prolotherapy helped them.


I have treated Professional, Olympic, and Collegiate athletes, and mere mortals such as attorneys, physicians’ wives, chiropractors, nurses, and physical therapists, etc.

I have even seen a former rock star’s wife, who begged me to treat her hips. Despite her offering of paying any price, her hips were beyond repair and needed replacement, and that is what I suggested, after gently discussing these matters with her.

On the other hand, I have patients ask me to try Prolotherapy, when I felt the problem was too far advanced for any relief to be obtained, and they persuaded me reluctantly to try (remember Medicare does not cover these expenses) and I was wrong, and they were right, much to their pleasure and to my surprise.

God gives me the talents to help patients, but God leaves the judgment of who is the best candidate up to me! I will say that if it makes any difference, all my family staff, and the family of staff have decided at some point to consult me and accept this option.

I have done injections on an 89 year old with excellent results as well as 8-year-old gymnast whose mother is a CEO of a company and has been helped by prolotherapy herself.

There are also the nurses that work with me, who have decided to have the treatments after car accidents, or falls. There is one nurse, who 12 years ago while watching me inject patients and having a needle phobia, claimed she would need treatment, and is doing great, more functional than she was before.

Nevertheless, these are some comments patients made to me:

“I was told by a (medical school) sports medicine doctor that Prolotherapy was just a placebo, but now I can play golf with my knee, and drop well below my previous score." A.Z. Attorney

“Since having prolotherapy injections in my shoulder, not only am I able to hit the golf ball further, I can work longer without pain over my patients." T.C. Dentist

“It was amazing, a hamstring tear like one I had would have taken weeks to repair, but you got it better in one week!" Professional Football player

“To let you know, my son went to see a prolotherapist in Houston with out effect, it was worth the return trip to New Orleans, because with just one injection he is competing again.” Collegiate Gymnast

“I can sleep as long as I want on my shoulder now” wife of Professional football player

“I went to the big (institution), they said I had to live with it, or have surgery on my spine and they could not be sure it would help. With your injections, my pain has decreased over 65% and can play with my grandchildren again." C. R. Retired Lineman

“You would not believe how little doctors know about these things, and even less seem to care except to write me a script and leave the room in less than 5 minutes." R.S. Business owner

“You are the first doctor who knows anything about nutrition” K. D. Retired Salesman
