Quote:

At the Andrews Institute, doctors and surgeons are studying stem cells in order to bring the best treatments to patients in a manner that is safe, effective and ethically responsible.

Quote:

"We are using the patients' own mesenchymal cells from bone marrow and fat to treat potentially career-ending injuries," said Dr. Hackel. "We currently offer these treatments to athletes as well as non-athletes at the Andrews Institute."

Quote:

"We'll be working with the FDA to identify the best source of mesenchymal stem cells, whether that is from the patients' own bone marrow, fat or blood, and to complete research studies necessary for FDA approval of advanced procedures in the U.S.," said Dr. Hackel.

The staff of the Andrews Institute strives to advance regenerative medicine in cooperation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

"There's no reason in the world for our elite athletes to have to go offshore somewhere else to get the best treatment to enhance biologic healing," James Andrews, M.D., told ESPN.

So is this... Its dated but with the IR holdup things couldn't go forward. I believe that soon we may read about a few acquisitions or partnerships with 2 ASC's (one in Texas and one in Georgia). JMO
