Dr. Tom Schwartz Patient Profiles | Rebound PRP: Adjunct to Surgery

Enso Discoveries, LLC Sponsors Study with Tom Schwartz, DVM of St. Peters, Missouri, Cracking the Code on Canine Pain Management and Surgical Recovery with Rebound™ PRP.

Harvester Animal Clinic has found a proverbial fountain of youth for dogs in pain; facing surgery for cranial cruciate ligament injuries by integrating platelet-rich plasma for faster healing and substantially decreased post-operative pain.

“Pain appeared to be well controlled allowing owners to perform physical therapy on patients with minimal issues. Pets were able to return to slow walks just two weeks after the procedure, with several patients beginning to run on their own within 30 days of the procedure and requiring a leash for restraint. By simply closing the surgery with Rebound PRP, my patients experienced significantly less postoperative pain.” – Dr. Tom Schwartz

Below are five recent case studies where Dr. Tom Schwartz has injected PRP into the canine’s knee during surgery. In the videos, you can see that full range of motion is established without pain within one to two weeks post operation. After CCL surgery with Rebound PRP, all five patients exhibit a well-healed surgery and painless, full range of motion.
