In a press release dated October 15th 2009 Dr. Purita had reported that 89% of knee patients reported fifty percent relief of all symptoms as well as other data on chronic hip pain successes. Purita wished to retract those findings and report that patients are reporting 85% relief of symptoms across the board for all Stem Cell and Platelet Rich Plasma therapies. The 85% of patients benefiting from these therapies represents results in the good to excellent category. "Our original findings were taken in conjunction with other data from various sources. New data is linked solely to findings for our patients at the Institute for Regenerative and Molecular Orthopedics," Purita reported. "Our patients are faring well with these new types of treatments and our results mirror other organizations providing similar care."
