“I have been going here for over 20 years and they delivered both my children. Dr. Heiberger is the best. She is patient and just makes you feel comfortable. Staff is all great too.”
“I strongly recommend TruStem for someone with a neurological issue.
I have a C9orf72 pathogenic mutation which causes frontotemporal degeneration / dementia and ALS. I started having symptoms in 2019 when I got lost driving home. About 2 years ago I developed a stutter and found that my brain seemed cloudy. It became exhausting to talk and to listen to people - took a lot of effort to process. There is no treatment, no cure and no way to slow progression. The defect causes loss of neurons in my brain and also causes clumps of bad proteins to build up in my brain.
I decided to try stem cell therapy because I know someone who used it for COPD with a positive effect. It’s not FDA approved for FTD and I wasn’t expecting much. I decided to use TruStem because they use my own stem cells - the local places use stem cells from other sources.
I completely amazed at the impact. My stutter is virtually gone. I am finding my way around better. My brain seems clearer and it is not as exhausting to talk or to listen.
The process was easy, the bone marrow withdrawal was unpleasant but not painful. But frankly even if it wasn’t easy and it was painful I would still do it.
I can’t say that everyone will respond the way I have but it really helped me and I have recommended it to everyone in my FTD group. It has given me hope for a terminal incurable untreatable neurodegenerative illness.”
