Patient Testimonial
Nina is a 4-year-old Dachshund who had lameness, Patella Luxation-Bilateral, Hip Dysplasia-Bilateral, and Osteoarthritis. “Nina has always had a bad limp and was not able to do the things she had done in the past after injury. We were told that surgery was the only option, and having thought we exhausted all options were planning for just that. We had scheduled an appointment for Nina for laser therapy with Good Shepherd to offer her some type of relief. When we met with Dr. Deeb, he discussed the option of PRP therapy, which we had never heard of before. We figured we had nothing left to lose. It was simple and Dr. Deeb had explained everything she was going to have done and post-procedure as well. She is like the Nina we had known before; she is running around just like she had always done before the injury. Our life has changed because we have our little Nina back like we had always wanted. We would certainly recommend Dr. Deeb and the PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy for anyone’s pets who are experiencing the same ailments. We are thankful to the doctor and staff at Good Shepherd Pet Hospital. They are wonderful people.”
How Does It Work?
The PRP Kit is a breakthrough and non-invasive product that will bolster the healing process of your furry friends. PRP uses blood plasma with concentrated platelets that, once activated, will encourage healing properties in the body. Platelets that are found in whole blood contain a lot of healing growth factors and bioactive proteins. With the help of these bioactive proteins, it can initiate tissue healing and assist with reducing inflammation. The treatment offers an affordable, all-natural alternative to drugs and steroids that is a fraction of the cost compared to human treatments.
