Stem Cell Therapy for Equine Injuries

Stem cell therapy is a less invasive way to treat many equine injuries and ailments, with excellent results.

Stem Cell Therapy for Horses in Arizona

If your horse has arthritis, a tendon injury, or a ligament injury then we suggest you consider stem cell therapy.

One example of how effective stem cell therapy can be is our story of Serena. Serena had a previous history of laminitis and experienced a flare up two years prior to presentation. She was treated at Cave Creek Equine™ Sports Medicine & Surgery by Dr. Vidal for laminitis with two doses of VetGraft PulpCyte under ultrasound guidance.
