Testimonial: Elston Green

Treatment: Platelet Rich Plasma, PRP Therapy

Elston Green, a law enforcement professional, first came to Capitol Spine & Pain Centers in April, 2009, at the suggestion of another physician. Mr. Green had contracted lyme disease, which had caused joint damage, inflammation and pain in his knee, elbow and ankle.

Mr. Green was examined by a Capitol Spine & Pain Centers physician who suggested a protocol of platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections to treat his ever-worsening condition. After a series of three PRP injections, Mr. Green noticed a significant improvement – far less pain and far greater mobility in the affected areas.

Mr. Green has been impressed by the care he has received. "When I first met him, the doctor made no promises about my recovery, but he promised to try his hardest to make me better.”

As Mr. Green continued to improve, he noticed something rare. "The look of joy on the doctor’s face matched mine. The passion he has for his life’s work and the pride he displayed as he saw me getting better was exciting."

Mr. Green has turned the corner on his road to recovery and is a firm believer in both the science and compassion evident at Capitol Spine & Pain Centers.
