## Patient Story

- [Jim](https://www.coreorthosports.com/stories/jim/) - I would like to thank Core Orthopedics, especially Dr. Kuesis, for their care and support.

While my intention was to ride 75 miles, high winds which existed over the last 20 miles cut my ride short to 56 miles.
- [Rob](https://www.coreorthosports.com/stories/rob/) - Last Fall, we met again, spoke briefly telling me my Arthritis was "a lot worse". I came looking at Stem Cell. Dr. Kuesis suggested I consider PRP, and I did it. Unless I abuse my knee, I am much better than before, months later. Thank you! We also talked about water skiing, and the need
