Dr. Holly Duck uses Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy in surgery to improve tendon repairs

Dr. Holly Duck of Bone & Joint Surgery is pleased to begin offering Platelet-Rich plasma or PRP therapy during surgeries on injured tendons, such as rotator cuff and Achilles tendon repairs. Using the patient’s own blood, a specially prepared platelet membrane is formed and placed at the tendon repair site. These platelet membranes release substances known as growth factors that lead to improved tissue healing. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Duck to see if PRP therapy may be right for you.
