Are knee replacements being overprescribed?

Someone you know is being told: "You'll need a new knee — come back when the pain gets worse."
But what if that advice is incomplete… or even wrong?

In this episode, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Mark Pietropaoli shares a radically different approach: repairing the knee instead of replacing it — backed by decades of clinical experience and long-term data.

After being challenged early in his career, Dr. Pietropaoli spent 35+ years answering one question:
Can damaged knees actually heal?

🧠 What You'll Learn:

➡️Why arthritis pain often comes from bone — not cartilage
➡️The Hernigou study: 82% avoided knee replacement after BMAC stem cell treatment (20-year follow-up)
➡️Why most PRP injections fail (and what doctors are missing)
➡️The "Cycle of Insanity" in conventional knee care
➡️How platelet dosing is often underdone by 3–5x
➡️The role of weight loss, nutrition, and light therapy in joint recovery
➡️How to identify a true regenerative orthopedist
➡️Why "that's experimental" might be a red flag — not a warning

⚠️ The Bigger Issue:

Modern healthcare often defaults to surgery — even when alternatives exist.
Dr. Pietropaoli isn't anti-surgery… he's anti-unnecessary surgery.
