So the stem cell injections that we utilize 206 00:09:30,625 --> 00:09:32,000 from the amniotic stem cells. 207 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,708 - There are no live cells that I can say 208 00:09:33,708 --> 00:09:36,208 with very strong conviction in the products 209 00:09:36,208 --> 00:09:37,250 that we tested. 210 00:09:37,250 --> 00:09:38,791 And they really love to say, oh, 211 00:09:38,791 --> 00:09:42,333 they're young stem cells because they come from amnion. 212 00:09:42,333 --> 00:09:43,166 So if they're young, 213 00:09:43,166 --> 00:09:44,083 they should be better. 214 00:09:44,083 --> 00:09:46,666 - Now tissues so much more active. 215 00:09:47,583 --> 00:09:50,625 - But the at least the ones that we tested suggest 216 00:09:50,625 --> 00:09:52,000 that there's not even a live cell, 217 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,250 let alone a stem cell. 218 00:09:53,250 --> 00:09:56,041 - [Reporter] In 1915, a government's chemist 219 00:09:56,041 --> 00:09:59,416 analyzed samples of a famous patent medicine, 220 00:09:59,416 --> 00:10:02,583 Clark Stanley's Snake Oil Liniment. 221 00:10:02,583 --> 00:10:05,625 The chemist found it did not have snake oil in it. 222 00:10:05,625 --> 00:10:08,541 It was a petroleum based product. 223 00:10:08,541 --> 00:10:12,083 Are today's manufacturers and doctors who promote amniotic 224 00:10:12,083 --> 00:10:13,916 or cord blood stem cells, 225 00:10:13,916 --> 00:10:15,541 committing the same type of fraud 226 00:10:15,541 --> 00:10:19,083 that snake oil salesmen committed 100 years ago? 227 00:10:19,083 --> 00:10:21,666 Can they use the term stem cells, 228 00:10:21,666 --> 00:10:23,833 like amniotic stem cells, 229 00:10:23,833 --> 00:10:25,833 or cord blood stem cells, 230 00:10:25,833 --> 00:10:28,166 when chemists who test it say they can't find 231 00:10:28,166 --> 00:10:29,458 living stem cells in it? 232 00:10:29,458 --> 00:10:31,875 - We had a salesperson come in and try 233 00:10:31,875 --> 00:10:33,625 to sell us one of these off the shelf, 234 00:10:33,625 --> 00:10:35,791 amniotic fluid type products. 235 00:10:35,791 --> 00:10:37,625 And I thought it was quite funny. 236 00:10:37,625 --> 00:10:40,666 And that they guaranteed to us that there 237 00:10:40,666 --> 00:10:44,250 was over 2 million stem cells or 2 million cells 238 00:10:44,250 --> 00:10:48,083 in this little vial of fluid that we would reconstitute 239 00:10:48,083 --> 00:10:49,958 with saline and do stuff. 240 00:10:49,958 --> 00:10:51,541 And I didn't buy it at the start, 241 00:10:51,541 --> 00:10:52,583 but there was no it was one 242 00:10:52,583 --> 00:10:54,166 of those things after a little discussion, 243 00:10:54,166 --> 00:10:55,875 we're just going to agree to disagree. 244 00:10:55,875 --> 00:10:58,625 I took the vial to our laboratory biochemistry 245 00:10:58,625 --> 00:11:00,208 and tested it. 246 00:11:00,208 --> 00:11:03,125 And the person was kinda half right at what they told me 247 00:11:03,125 --> 00:11:04,541 he was correct in one regard, 248 00:11:04,541 --> 00:11:06,833 there was 2.3 million cells in this vial 249 00:11:06,833 --> 00:11:07,666 that we had. 250 00:11:07,666 --> 00:11:09,375 But every one of those cells was dead 251 00:11:09,375 --> 00:11:10,458 when we test it, 252 00:11:10,458 --> 00:11:11,875 and when we went back 253 00:11:11,875 --> 00:11:14,500 to confront the salespeople about this, 254 00:11:14,500 --> 00:11:16,458 the only answer we got back was, well, 255 00:11:16,458 --> 00:11:18,083 we never said there was live cells in there. 256 00:11:18,083 --> 00:11:19,333 We just said there were cells. 257 00:11:19,333 --> 00:11:21,125 - So the stem cell injections that we utilize 258 00:11:21,125 --> 00:11:24,958 from the amniotic stem cells have the cytokines 259 00:11:24,958 --> 00:11:26,833 and growth factors, 260 00:11:26,833 --> 00:11:28,041 - The growth factors, 261 00:11:28,041 --> 00:11:30,500 growth factors have this very short life 262 00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:31,583 when they're there. 263 00:11:31,583 --> 00:11:34,875 And so you can imagine that if you prepare something 264 00:11:34,875 --> 00:11:36,166 that's gonna take care of some 265 00:11:36,166 --> 00:11:37,041 of the growth factors, 266 00:11:37,041 --> 00:11:38,958 they can't live through the process. 267 00:11:38,958 --> 00:11:41,375 And then it sits on the shelf and then undergoes 268 00:11:41,375 --> 00:11:43,250 some temperature changes and by the end, 269 00:11:43,250 --> 00:11:45,583 there's essentially nothing left. 270 00:11:45,583 --> 00:11:47,458 - My study get an amnio would suggest 271 00:11:47,458 --> 00:11:49,666 that those growth factors are not present 272 00:11:49,666 --> 00:11:53,125 in the nine amnion products that I tested. 273 00:11:53,125 --> 00:11:56,250 - So that is the most controversial in my opinion, 274 00:11:56,250 --> 00:11:58,750 the most controversial part 275 00:11:58,750 --> 00:12:00,250 of Regenerative Medicine. 276 00:12:00,250 --> 00:12:01,750 It's used the most, 277 00:12:01,750 --> 00:12:04,708 which has the very least data to suggest 278 00:12:04,708 --> 00:12:06,166 that it does anything. 279 00:12:06,166 --> 00:12:09,458 - [Reporter] When the FDA finds a violative manufacturer, 280 00:12:09,458 --> 00:12:12,958 they send out warning letters for the public, clinics, 281 00:12:12,958 --> 00:12:16,250 physicians, anyone who will listen to them. 282 00:12:16,250 --> 00:12:17,625 The problem is, 283 00:12:17,625 --> 00:12:20,250 the audience isn't listening. 284 00:12:20,250 --> 00:12:23,375 How many FDA warning letters have you read? 285 00:12:23,375 --> 00:12:25,791 - And we trickle it down to the general population. 286 00:12:25,791 --> 00:12:27,708 They have no clue what's going on there. 287 00:12:27,708 --> 00:12:31,875 - I had the injections and February of 2017. 288 00:12:31,875 --> 00:12:35,708 By June, I was back to taking painkillers again. 289 00:12:36,916 --> 00:12:37,916 This is the bad one. 290 00:12:38,875 --> 00:12:40,750 They told me I needed hip replaced 291 00:12:41,916 --> 00:12:43,875 over two and a half years ago. 292 00:12:43,875 --> 00:12:46,500 I really felt like it had made a difference 293 00:12:46,500 --> 00:12:47,375 in the beginning. 294 00:12:49,250 --> 00:12:51,250 Come on, where's your ball 295 00:12:52,541 --> 00:12:56,041 to look back on it and talk with medical doctors 296 00:12:56,041 --> 00:12:58,375 who really understand these products. 297 00:12:58,375 --> 00:13:03,375 They said probably it was the anti inflammatory qualities 298 00:13:04,041 --> 00:13:08,833 of the injection, that helped me for a brief period of time. 299 00:13:08,833 --> 00:13:11,291 It wasn't the miracle that they touted, 300 00:13:11,291 --> 00:13:12,916 it might be. 301 00:13:12,916 --> 00:13:14,875 I'ma bust some water out. 302 00:13:14,875 --> 00:13:19,708 The seminars really hit hard about this pain, 303 00:13:20,583 --> 00:13:24,583 free lifestyle and regrowing your joints. 304 00:13:24,583 --> 00:13:27,916 -

They were also talking about 310 00:13:40,666 --> 00:13:45,333 how they were curing diabetes, Alzheimer's Protocol 311 00:13:45,333 --> 00:13:46,958 when it gets right down to it. 312 00:13:46,958 --> 00:13:48,333 Wouldn't it be on the news? 313 00:13:48,333 --> 00:13:51,166 - A 70 year old patient who came 314 00:13:51,166 --> 00:13:53,375 to me after being treated at one of these clinics, 315 00:13:53,375 --> 00:13:57,916 he paid $22,000 to get these stem cells 316 00:13:57,916 --> 00:14:00,875 which were not live stem cells injected. 317 00:14:00,875 --> 00:14:03,916 Three into his shoulder that were done without guidance, 318 00:14:03,916 --> 00:14:06,375 three into his six into his neck six 319 00:14:06,375 --> 00:14:07,875 into his lower back, 320 00:14:07,875 --> 00:14:12,083 which were done by like a retired GI doctor. 321 00:14:12,083 --> 00:14:13,833 Still in pain six weeks later comes 322 00:14:13,833 --> 00:14:15,208 to see me no one had ever 323 00:14:15,208 --> 00:14:17,916 ordered an MRI done an appropriate workup. 324 00:14:17,916 --> 00:14:21,875 And the guy had metastatic bone cancer all over his body, 325 00:14:22,791 --> 00:14:24,500 not as a result of the treatment, 326 00:14:24,500 --> 00:14:28,083 but certainly he was never gonna get better. 327 00:14:28,083 --> 00:14:29,458 He had a delay in the diagnosis 328 00:14:29,458 --> 00:14:31,958 'cause he wasn't seeing a medical doctor who is trained 329 00:14:31,958 --> 00:14:34,250 to actually figure out what was going on with them. 330 00:14:34,250 --> 00:14:36,916 Before considering these treatment options. 331 00:14:36,916 --> 00:14:38,541 - The patients will eventually get to us 332 00:14:38,541 --> 00:14:40,583 but what really bothers me in this process with 333 00:14:40,583 --> 00:14:44,541 ortho biologics is that potentially six months a year 334 00:14:44,541 --> 00:14:47,250 or two years can elapse by the time they end up 335 00:14:47,250 --> 00:14:48,458 on my doorstep, 336 00:14:48,458 --> 00:14:50,250 at which case maybe the changes 337 00:14:50,250 --> 00:14:52,083 that we could have fixed 338 00:14:52,083 --> 00:14:55,791 with the proper dosage the proper administration biologics, 339 00:14:55,791 --> 00:14:58,875 now is a full blown Orthopedic Surgery case. 340 00:14:58,875 --> 00:15:00,750 - There's no blood work, there's no MRIs, 341 00:15:00,750 --> 00:15:05,000 there's really not a lot of diagnosis. 342 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,333 There's an awful lot of sales pitch. 343 00:15:07,333 --> 00:15:10,708 - [Chris] So here we have a chiropractor who has gone 344 00:15:10,708 --> 00:15:13,958 to a chiropractic consultant David Singer. 345 00:15:13,958 --> 00:15:15,500 - This is Dr. David Sanger. 346 00:15:15,500 --> 00:15:17,500 I'm sending you this video email to invite you 347 00:15:17,500 --> 00:15:19,333 to come and spend some time was made to learn 348 00:15:19,333 --> 00:15:21,458 how to do stem cell from A to Z. 349 00:15:21,458 --> 00:15:25,208 - And Dr. Singer has a training on basically how 350 00:15:25,208 --> 00:15:29,458 to improve your conversions at the seminars, 351 00:15:29,458 --> 00:15:30,583 - I can show you how to present it 352 00:15:30,583 --> 00:15:32,416 to your patients and educate them. 353 00:15:32,416 --> 00:15:34,458 So eight out of 10 will be happy 354 00:15:34,458 --> 00:15:35,666 to be able to purchase. 355 00:15:35,666 --> 00:15:37,583 - And after his class my conversion went up 356 00:15:37,583 --> 00:15:40,375 to 60, 70, 80% 357 00:15:40,375 --> 00:15:43,250 some days I'm even closing 90% of the attendees. 358 00:15:43,250 --> 00:15:45,750 - What you didn't hear obviously is anything about who 359 00:15:45,750 --> 00:15:49,083 is a medically appropriate candidate for these procedures. 360 00:15:49,083 --> 00:15:53,083 Obviously, some of the people at the seminars and based 361 00:15:53,083 --> 00:15:53,916 on what we've seen, 362 00:15:53,916 --> 00:15:57,750 probably half would not be even appropriate for the therapy, 363 00:15:57,750 --> 00:16:00,250 but she's closing 90% now. 364 00:16:00,250 --> 00:16:03,583 Again, this is more timeshare sales 365 00:16:03,583 --> 00:16:05,750 than it is actual medicine. 366 00:16:05,750 --> 00:16:06,916 - It people that are usually 367 00:16:06,916 --> 00:16:09,041 not classically trained physicians that are 368 00:16:09,041 --> 00:16:12,708 offering these neonatal birth products in a vial. 369 00:16:12,708 --> 00:16:14,416 -

--> 00:38:42,750 This is for their new Liveyon Pure product. 916 00:38:42,750 --> 00:38:45,416 - [Announcer] This has always been about science, 917 00:38:45,416 --> 00:38:50,375 and Liveyon is in the business of better science. 918 00:38:50,375 --> 00:38:54,000 The FDA inspected Liveyon in May 2019, 919 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,750 and found these products are regulated as drugs 920 00:38:56,750 --> 00:39:01,458 and biological products to lawfully market these products, 921 00:39:01,458 --> 00:39:05,166 an approved biologics license application is needed 922 00:39:05,166 --> 00:39:08,125 and may be used in humans in the development stage 923 00:39:08,125 --> 00:39:12,625 only when an IND application is in effect. 924 00:39:12,625 --> 00:39:16,166 However, no such licenses or INDs 925 00:39:16,166 --> 00:39:21,166 are in effect for Pure or Pure Pro marketed by Liveyon. 926 00:39:21,708 --> 00:39:25,750 This CDC report explains how umbilical cord blood 927 00:39:25,750 --> 00:39:29,000 cannot be decontaminated after collection 928 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,916 because there are currently no validated processes 929 00:39:31,916 --> 00:39:33,583 for sterilization. 930 00:39:33,583 --> 00:39:36,125 So, manufacture of derived products 931 00:39:36,125 --> 00:39:39,083 must be highly controlled to prevent distribution 932 00:39:39,083 --> 00:39:41,041 of contaminated products. 933 00:39:41,041 --> 00:39:46,041 - We have gone from the academic into the real now okay, 934 00:39:46,250 --> 00:39:49,666 and the issues with the allogeneic products 935 00:39:49,666 --> 00:39:52,000 have become very, very real. 936 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,083 And it's not only an issue of patients being ripped off 937 00:39:56,083 --> 00:39:58,625 by having received stem cell products 938 00:39:58,625 --> 00:40:01,250 that don't have any themselves in it. 939 00:40:01,250 --> 00:40:03,708 But at the same time the patients have paid 5,0000, 940 00:40:03,708 --> 00:40:08,083 7,500, $10,000 for those injections, 941 00:40:08,083 --> 00:40:11,083 which oftentimes take place at a chiropractor's office. 942 00:40:11,083 --> 00:40:13,291 Now we have people being actually hurt. 943 00:40:13,291 --> 00:40:17,875 And now we start seeing why we need an agency like the FDA 944 00:40:17,875 --> 00:40:18,833 to be involved, 945 00:40:18,833 --> 00:40:22,041 especially when we're talking about the manufacturing 946 00:40:22,041 --> 00:40:25,458 and mass distributing of medical products that rely 947 00:40:25,458 --> 00:40:27,083 on cellular activity, 948 00:40:27,083 --> 00:40:29,833 potentially from donors who weren't eligible 949 00:40:29,833 --> 00:40:31,916 to be donors for whatever reason, 950 00:40:31,916 --> 00:40:35,166 - Birth tissue derived stem cells aren't the only products 951 00:40:35,166 --> 00:40:37,125 that violate FDA rules. 952 00:40:37,125 --> 00:40:39,125 - There have been a couple big players 953 00:40:39,125 --> 00:40:40,416 that have really manipulated 954 00:40:40,416 --> 00:40:42,791 the public's perception of adipose 955 00:40:42,791 --> 00:40:45,000 and probably tainted all of Regenerative Medicine 956 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:46,000 in the process. 957 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,166 - US Stem Cell Clinics chief science officer 958 00:40:49,166 --> 00:40:50,583 was Kristin Comella. 959 00:40:50,583 --> 00:40:52,625 She was the face of the organization 960 00:40:52,625 --> 00:40:54,083 and under her leadership, 961 00:40:54,083 --> 00:40:57,125 US stem cell train 700 Physicians 962 00:40:57,125 --> 00:40:59,750 and created the largest network of physicians 963 00:40:59,750 --> 00:41:02,250 in regenerative medicine in the world. 964 00:41:02,250 --> 00:41:06,083 The FDA then brought the case against her. 965 00:41:06,083 --> 00:41:07,083 - [Reporter] And the Federal Court 966 00:41:07,083 --> 00:41:10,583 issued a decision holding the US Stem Cell Clinics 967 00:41:10,583 --> 00:41:15,125 and owner adulterated and misbranded stem cell products 968 00:41:15,125 --> 00:41:17,000 in violation of the law. 969 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,833 - Does this seem to be something where the FDA 970 00:41:18,833 --> 00:41:21,083 is kind of playing the arbiter? 971 00:41:21,083 --> 00:41:23,916 - [Reporter] Even prior to and during the court battle, 972 00:41:23,916 --> 00:41:26,083 Kristin received tremendous support 973 00:41:26,083 --> 00:41:29,166 at natural medicine events in docu series 974 00:41:29,166 --> 00:41:32,291 and with alternative news networks like Info Wars, 975 00:41:32,291 --> 00:41:34,833 where she was defended and even promoted 976 00:41:34,833 --> 00:41:37,166 as a trusted stem cell expert 977 00:41:37,166 --> 00:41:41,291 even though the FDA had labeled her a bad actor. 978 00:41:41,291 --> 00:41:43,416 - I am joined by Dr. Kristin Comella. 979 00:41:43,416 --> 00:41:47,583 - Who is the top stem cell science Just in America, 980 00:41:47,583 --> 00:41:50,083 - World renowned actually at this point stem cell expert. 981 00:41:50,083 --> 00:41:53,375 - Is and she is number one on the Academy 982 00:41:53,375 --> 00:41:57,416 of regenerative practices list of stem cell innovators. 983 00:41:57,416 --> 00:41:59,708 - Had the pleasure of meeting her at Red Phase last year. 984 00:41:59,708 --> 00:42:01,500 - I've been dosing myself with stem cells 985 00:42:01,500 --> 00:42:02,750 for about three years. 986 00:42:02,750 --> 00:42:05,208 I typically dose every six to 12 months. 987 00:42:05,208 --> 00:42:08,833 - Dr. Kristin, what do you wanna tell our people today, 988 00:42:08,833 --> 00:42:11,208 this is your voice, faith in freedom. 989 00:42:11,208 --> 00:42:14,791 And they're very interested on how this works. 990 00:42:14,791 --> 00:42:17,375 - So it was actually Palm Sunday, 991 00:42:17,375 --> 00:42:20,916 a week before Easter that I received notice 992 00:42:20,916 --> 00:42:24,958 from my attorneys that the United States of America was 993 00:42:24,958 --> 00:42:28,333 interested in filing a lawsuit against me personally, 994 00:42:28,333 --> 00:42:30,750 as well as the clinic and the company. 995 00:42:30,750 --> 00:42:33,250 We did injections on the interior vaginal wall, 996 00:42:33,250 --> 00:42:35,750 men I'm a female in her 40s you start 997 00:42:35,750 --> 00:42:37,666 to have issues with lubrication, 998 00:42:37,666 --> 00:42:40,333 and then you start to have issues with orgasms. 999 00:42:40,333 --> 00:42:43,500 And so by introducing the stem cells that can help 1000 00:42:43,500 --> 00:42:47,250 to improve the blood supply there, with more blood supply, 1001 00:42:47,250 --> 00:42:51,250 this means better orgasms as well as better lubrication. 1002 00:42:51,250 --> 00:42:54,125 And so this is a very natural approach 1003 00:42:54,125 --> 00:42:56,250 to helping improve your sex life and I'm happy 1004 00:42:56,250 --> 00:42:57,291 to report that it worked 1005 00:42:57,291 --> 00:43:00,125 and I think my husband would report the same. 1006 00:43:00,125 --> 00:43:01,333 - Right, I mean its so exciting. 1007 00:43:01,333 --> 00:43:03,916 - Regrettably, I didn't do my due diligence 1008 00:43:03,916 --> 00:43:05,625 and study it more carefully. 1009 00:43:05,625 --> 00:43:07,625 - Hi, this is Dr. Mercola, 1010 00:43:07,625 --> 00:43:09,000 helping you take control of your health 1011 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,333 and today we are joined by an expert. 1012 00:43:12,333 --> 00:43:14,458 Soon to be Dr. Kristin Comella. 1013 00:43:14,458 --> 00:43:15,916 - [Reporter] Kristin was a student 1014 00:43:15,916 --> 00:43:18,416 at Florida International University, FIU. 1015 00:43:19,708 --> 00:43:20,875 We verified with FIU 1016 00:43:21,791 --> 00:43:25,000 that she became a PhD candidate, 1017 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,041 meaning she completed the coursework part of the program, 1018 00:43:28,041 --> 00:43:30,791 but she still needed to do the research part, 1019 00:43:30,791 --> 00:43:33,583 her dissertation and for her field. 1020 00:43:33,583 --> 00:43:35,750 That's the part that demonstrates how 1021 00:43:35,750 --> 00:43:38,666 to research at the professional level. 1022 00:43:38,666 --> 00:43:42,875 She never completed her PhD at FIU. 1023 00:43:42,875 --> 00:43:46,166 - I had an opportunity to transfer again 1024 00:43:46,166 --> 00:43:49,083 and move to a university in Panama. 1025 00:43:49,083 --> 00:43:52,416 Now, anyone who has followed the space will know 1026 00:43:52,416 --> 00:43:54,916 that a lot of the stem cell treatments 1027 00:43:54,916 --> 00:43:56,833 that have been done clinically, 1028 00:43:56,833 --> 00:44:00,875 to this day have been done outside of the United States. 1029 00:44:00,875 --> 00:44:02,916 - [Reporter] FIU was legit. 1030 00:44:02,916 --> 00:44:05,625 It has a bookstore with FIU clothing, 1031 00:44:05,625 --> 00:44:10,166 including hats, sweatshirts, cool alumni, mom mugs, 1032 00:44:10,166 --> 00:44:12,916 and it even has a bus with its name on it. 1033 00:44:12,916 --> 00:44:15,375 They have funky sculpture stuff, too. 1034 00:44:15,375 --> 00:44:18,041 It has a huge, beautiful campus. 1035 00:44:18,041 --> 00:44:20,250 It has all the stuff we come to expect 1036 00:44:20,250 --> 00:44:23,958 in a quality American University today. 1037 00:44:23,958 --> 00:44:26,083 Why would she leave this? 1038 00:44:26,083 --> 00:44:28,583 - So being able to work with a team in Panama 1039 00:44:28,583 --> 00:44:30,166 was truly an honor. 1040 00:44:30,166 --> 00:44:32,250 - [Announcer] The AVM is now departing, 1041 00:44:32,250 --> 00:44:34,125 please hold on to the handrail. 1042 00:44:34,125 --> 00:44:35,916 - [Reporter] So we decided to go to this 1043 00:44:35,916 --> 00:44:39,458 Panama College of cell sciences and check it out. 1044 00:44:44,916 --> 00:44:48,291 Panama City Definitely has it going on. 1045 00:44:48,291 --> 00:44:49,416 It's beautiful. 1046 00:44:49,416 --> 00:44:53,375 Modern, has a nice Airport has a lot of taxis 1047 00:44:53,375 --> 00:44:55,083 and has a fairly famous canal 1048 00:44:55,083 --> 00:44:57,125 that runs right through the middle of it. 1049 00:44:59,916 --> 00:45:02,583 The jungles have very industrious ants, 1050 00:45:02,583 --> 00:45:05,000 and the land is just beautiful. 1051 00:45:06,583 --> 00:45:10,666 However, that's not where Panama College of cell Sciences 1052 00:45:10,666 --> 00:45:14,250 is at, it's in a tiny remote town 1053 00:45:14,250 --> 00:45:15,791 called Chitra. 1054 00:45:15,791 --> 00:45:17,916 It's either a four hour bus ride 1055 00:45:17,916 --> 00:45:20,125 or a 30 minute plane ride. 1056 00:45:20,125 --> 00:45:23,041 To get there, you must travel to the other side 1057 00:45:23,041 --> 00:45:26,250 of Panama City to a very small airport. 1058 00:45:27,166 --> 00:45:29,291 It has a nice bubblegum machine 1059 00:45:29,291 --> 00:45:31,125 and vintage payphones. 1060 00:45:36,750 --> 00:45:38,916 It uses a tiny commercial plane. 1061 00:45:40,041 --> 00:45:42,666 You drop your bags in the back 1062 00:45:42,666 --> 00:45:45,000 and crawl over the seats like a suburban. 1063 00:45:47,208 --> 00:45:49,083 If you choose to sit in the front, 1064 00:45:49,083 --> 00:45:50,458 you have to spread your legs 1065 00:45:50,458 --> 00:45:54,000 to let the pilot pull his seat back to fly the plane. 1066 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,208 There are no flight attendants there. 1067 00:45:56,208 --> 00:45:59,666 No bathrooms, but a great view 1068 00:45:59,666 --> 00:46:02,125 watching the pilots fly the plane. 1069 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:04,500 When it's too bright, 1070 00:46:04,500 --> 00:46:07,208 the pilots put sunshades over the window 1071 00:46:07,208 --> 00:46:09,791 so they can see the instrument panels. 1072 00:46:09,791 --> 00:46:12,541 It only flies about 2,000 feet high. 1073 00:46:12,541 --> 00:46:15,083 So you fly right in the rain clouds, 1074 00:46:15,083 --> 00:46:16,083 not over them. 1075 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:22,083 You get a lovely view of the landing strip as you land. 1076 00:46:25,583 --> 00:46:27,125 You might be wondering, 1077 00:46:27,125 --> 00:46:28,625 why would Kristin come here 1078 00:46:28,625 --> 00:46:31,125 to get training she felt she couldn't receive 1079 00:46:31,125 --> 00:46:34,250 in the United States in 2017. 1080 00:46:38,375 --> 00:46:41,000 We caught the only taxi at the airport, 1081 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,791 an airport that only had two cars in front of it 1082 00:46:43,791 --> 00:46:45,125 complete with dirt road 1083 00:46:45,125 --> 00:46:47,875 and a stray dog bars on the windows 1084 00:46:47,875 --> 00:46:51,458 in an airport with no metal detector going through security, 1085 00:46:51,458 --> 00:46:54,416 but you can watch the daytime soap opera 1086 00:46:54,416 --> 00:46:58,041 while carrying a gun, bomb or anything you want 1087 00:46:58,041 --> 00:46:59,250 to the plane. 1088 00:46:59,250 --> 00:47:01,708 We really didn't see anywhere to stay. 1089 00:47:01,708 --> 00:47:04,625 So we went down to the hostel in Playa Venao 1090 00:47:04,625 --> 00:47:07,375 about an hour away on the ocean. 1091 00:47:07,375 --> 00:47:09,750 It was absolutely beautiful there. 1092 00:47:11,583 --> 00:47:13,250 But then back to tea tray. 1093 00:47:18,250 --> 00:47:20,041 The cab driver had a problem. 1094 00:47:23,666 --> 00:47:26,666 (speaks in foreign language) okay. 1095 00:47:26,666 --> 00:47:28,666 - [Reporter] He and the other known three taxis 1096 00:47:28,666 --> 00:47:31,750 in the town could not find the address that is listed 1097 00:47:31,750 --> 00:47:35,083 on the Panama College of cell sciences website. 1098 00:47:35,083 --> 00:47:38,541 The website does discourage doing any mailings there 1099 00:47:38,541 --> 00:47:41,083 and says to email everything however, 1100 00:47:41,083 --> 00:47:44,291 we were sure they actually had a real address. 1101 00:47:44,291 --> 00:47:46,750 The cab driver started asking everyone. 1102 00:47:51,750 --> 00:47:55,250 A reverse address search shows it shares the same address 1103 00:47:55,250 --> 00:47:59,666 but different suite number with the University of Swahili, 1104 00:47:59,666 --> 00:48:04,208 a university that grants PhDs primarily to people in India. 1105 00:48:04,208 --> 00:48:08,000 Why would the University of Swahili be in Panama? 1106 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,500 And why would it share the same address 1107 00:48:10,500 --> 00:48:13,000 with Panama College of Cell Sciences? 1108 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,250 This university of Swahili says its address 1109 00:48:16,250 --> 00:48:17,958 is Google verified, 1110 00:48:17,958 --> 00:48:21,000 and shows it slap dab in the middle of the street. 1111 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,750 So the cab driver went to the middle of the street 1112 00:48:23,750 --> 00:48:26,000 and talked with the person standing there, 1113 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,250 but the university wasn't there. 1114 00:48:29,375 --> 00:48:32,791 Shown on the map right next to the Google verified address, 1115 00:48:32,791 --> 00:48:34,041 it shows a carwash, 1116 00:48:34,041 --> 00:48:38,333 we found the carwash but no university, nothing. 1117 00:48:45,250 --> 00:48:47,166 Both of these Universities 1118 00:48:47,166 --> 00:48:50,083 say they are in the Azuero Business Center, 1119 00:48:50,083 --> 00:48:52,000 which Google brings up this site. 1120 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,500 The site had no links, no contact, 1121 00:48:54,500 --> 00:48:56,250 and six months earlier, 1122 00:48:56,250 --> 00:48:58,208 the same site looked like this 1123 00:48:58,208 --> 00:48:59,583 with another building. 1124 00:48:59,583 --> 00:49:02,416 Those buildings don't resemble each other. 1125 00:49:02,416 --> 00:49:05,583 But this was the closest building to the carwash. 1126 00:49:05,583 --> 00:49:08,500 We made the whole trip to Panama to speak with 1127 00:49:08,500 --> 00:49:12,000 someone in the administrative offices and found no evidence 1128 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,333 that either universities have a real address in 1129 00:49:15,333 --> 00:49:18,583 this very remote part of the world. 1130 00:49:18,583 --> 00:49:20,375 Let's just look at the website 1131 00:49:20,375 --> 00:49:23,791 for Panama College of Cell Sciences. 1132 00:49:23,791 --> 00:49:26,291 The college was founded by Walter Drake, 1133 00:49:26,291 --> 00:49:29,250 Walter Drake did not have a PhD, 1134 00:49:29,250 --> 00:49:32,416 when he opened Panama College of Cell Sciences. 1135 00:49:32,416 --> 00:49:34,750 He then opens another virtual college 1136 00:49:34,750 --> 00:49:36,958 out of the Commonwealth of Dominica, 1137 00:49:36,958 --> 00:49:38,833 called Blue Marble University, 1138 00:49:38,833 --> 00:49:41,000 Panama College of Cell Sciences, 1139 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,250 became the biology graduate school 1140 00:49:43,250 --> 00:49:46,583 within Blue Marble University again, 1141 00:49:46,583 --> 00:49:50,583 He opens both colleges without a PhD. 1142 00:49:50,583 --> 00:49:53,666 Then suddenly, he got a PhD. 1143 00:49:53,666 --> 00:49:57,416 Where, from panorama College of Cell Sciences. 1144 00:49:57,416 --> 00:50:01,750 Yep, he got a PhD from his own school 1145 00:50:01,750 --> 00:50:04,083 just in case you aren't catching it. 1146 00:50:04,083 --> 00:50:07,416 You can't just give yourself a degree at a higher level 1147 00:50:07,416 --> 00:50:10,083 than the education you already have. 1148 00:50:10,083 --> 00:50:11,583 If this did work, 1149 00:50:11,583 --> 00:50:14,375 Huffman and Laughlin should have saved their money 1150 00:50:14,375 --> 00:50:16,416 and avoided jail time. 1151 00:50:16,416 --> 00:50:17,958 - [Reporter] Tonight, Hollywood's elite 1152 00:50:17,958 --> 00:50:19,916 accused of paying top dollar 1153 00:50:19,916 --> 00:50:22,416 to buy admission to a higher education 1154 00:50:22,416 --> 00:50:24,416 their children did not earn. 1155 00:50:24,416 --> 00:50:26,208 - [Reporter] They could just start their own college 1156 00:50:26,208 --> 00:50:27,583 in the jungles of Panama, 1157 00:50:27,583 --> 00:50:29,958 and give PhDs to their kids. 1158 00:50:29,958 --> 00:50:31,958 On the Panama College website, 1159 00:50:31,958 --> 00:50:34,833 it has this certificate of recognition 1160 00:50:34,833 --> 00:50:37,208 from California University, 1161 00:50:37,208 --> 00:50:40,375 saying its curriculum is equivalent to the curriculum 1162 00:50:40,375 --> 00:50:43,916 of the regionally and nationally accredited colleges 1163 00:50:43,916 --> 00:50:48,000 and universities of the United States of America. 1164 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,458 Lots of issues here. 1165 00:50:49,458 --> 00:50:52,750 This website ends with a .tc. 1166 00:50:52,750 --> 00:50:54,708 You probably don't recognize it. 1167 00:50:54,708 --> 00:50:57,125 That's because it designates a country code 1168 00:50:57,125 --> 00:50:59,250 of the Turks and Caicos Islands. 1169 00:50:59,250 --> 00:51:01,875 If this is a university in LA, 1170 00:51:01,875 --> 00:51:05,083 why wouldn't it just have a.edu extension, 1171 00:51:05,083 --> 00:51:07,750 like every other real University in America? 1172 00:51:07,750 --> 00:51:11,125 Oh, and the website doesn't even work. 1173 00:51:11,125 --> 00:51:15,500 Searching California University on Google won't help either. 1174 00:51:15,500 --> 00:51:18,833 It brings up options for the University of California system 1175 00:51:18,833 --> 00:51:23,833 in California like UCLA, UC Berkeley, or UCSD. 1176 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,916 Well, maybe that's the intention with choosing this name. 1177 00:51:27,916 --> 00:51:31,416 If you search for California University FCE, 1178 00:51:31,416 --> 00:51:33,750 then it's the first option listed. 1179 00:51:33,750 --> 00:51:38,125 By the way Dr. Amorsolo's do not explain anywhere 1180 00:51:38,125 --> 00:51:41,166 why they're putting doctor in front of their name, 1181 00:51:41,166 --> 00:51:45,000 nor is any education listed on their LinkedIn profile. 1182 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,083 According to the California Department of Education, 1183 00:51:48,083 --> 00:51:52,500 California University FCE was opened on October 2 2011. 1184 00:51:54,500 --> 00:51:57,375 However, on the certificate for Panama College 1185 00:51:57,375 --> 00:51:58,916 of Cell Sciences, 1186 00:51:58,916 --> 00:52:01,208 it says here the certificate was given 1187 00:52:01,208 --> 00:52:04,583 on July 25 2011. 1188 00:52:04,583 --> 00:52:09,541 Over two months before California University FCE 1189 00:52:09,541 --> 00:52:13,625 was even registered according to California records. 1190 00:52:15,041 --> 00:52:17,500 The California Department of Education 1191 00:52:17,500 --> 00:52:20,875 lists California University FCE school 1192 00:52:20,875 --> 00:52:25,083 and mailing address as this private kindergarten here 1193 00:52:25,083 --> 00:52:28,333 yet California University FCE website 1194 00:52:28,333 --> 00:52:31,291 shows this building called University Tower 1195 00:52:31,291 --> 00:52:36,125 at 4199 campus drive suite 550. 1196 00:52:36,125 --> 00:52:39,541 Suite 550 is an Executive Office Suite 1197 00:52:39,541 --> 00:52:41,833 offering virtual offices. 1198 00:52:41,833 --> 00:52:44,875 California University says no walk in 1199 00:52:44,875 --> 00:52:47,083 on every address they list. 1200 00:52:47,083 --> 00:52:50,208 Isn't it a coincidence that they have a name 1201 00:52:50,208 --> 00:52:53,708 that is the reverse of the University of California, 1202 00:52:53,708 --> 00:52:55,291 California University. 1203 00:52:55,291 --> 00:52:57,750 And it's the closest business building 1204 00:52:57,750 --> 00:53:00,708 to the University of California, 1205 00:53:00,708 --> 00:53:04,166 a building called University Towers located 1206 00:53:04,166 --> 00:53:05,708 on campus drive, 1207 00:53:05,708 --> 00:53:07,541 and they use this picture 1208 00:53:07,541 --> 00:53:09,583 as their university building, 1209 00:53:09,583 --> 00:53:11,291 rather than the one registered 1210 00:53:11,291 --> 00:53:14,125 with the California Department of Education. 1211 00:53:14,125 --> 00:53:16,708 Making someone browsing through their website, 1212 00:53:16,708 --> 00:53:19,041 think this is a real University. 1213 00:53:22,250 --> 00:53:25,250 They are a founding member of the International Center 1214 00:53:25,250 --> 00:53:27,416 for academic evaluation, 1215 00:53:27,416 --> 00:53:29,583 which is invitation only. 1216 00:53:29,583 --> 00:53:31,458 They served as its first chair, 1217 00:53:31,458 --> 00:53:35,416 and almost all its members are original members. 1218 00:53:35,416 --> 00:53:38,041 For example, the next company listed 1219 00:53:38,041 --> 00:53:40,666 is Career Consulting International, 1220 00:53:40,666 --> 00:53:41,750 and their website, 1221 00:53:41,750 --> 00:53:44,250 they list in the news where they have a bunch 1222 00:53:44,250 --> 00:53:46,250 of videos that are not news. 1223 00:53:46,250 --> 00:53:49,833 But weak attempts to look like news as this classic. 1224 00:53:53,083 --> 00:53:54,333 Welcome to news break. 1225 00:53:54,333 --> 00:53:56,875 I'm Samantha Cohn in Washington DC, 1226 00:53:56,875 --> 00:53:58,916 where our representatives are gridlocked 1227 00:53:58,916 --> 00:54:00,833 about immigration reform. 1228 00:54:00,833 --> 00:54:02,708 One company that is moving forward 1229 00:54:02,708 --> 00:54:04,750 is Career Consulting International 1230 00:54:04,750 --> 00:54:08,750 www.thedegreepeople.com. 1231 00:54:08,750 --> 00:54:10,750 So here's where we stand. 1232 00:54:10,750 --> 00:54:13,833 We have a company called California University. 1233 00:54:13,833 --> 00:54:16,750 That sounds like the University of California, 1234 00:54:16,750 --> 00:54:18,833 using an Executive Office suite that 1235 00:54:18,833 --> 00:54:21,916 is conveniently right next door to the real University 1236 00:54:21,916 --> 00:54:23,375 of California Irvine. 1237 00:54:24,500 --> 00:54:28,000 They have authority to do academic evaluations 1238 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,583 from the International Center for academic evaluation, 1239 00:54:31,583 --> 00:54:34,666 which is an organization they appear to help found 1240 00:54:34,666 --> 00:54:37,375 and served as its first chair. 1241 00:54:37,375 --> 00:54:39,750 With that self made authority 1242 00:54:39,750 --> 00:54:43,666 they evaluated Panama College's cell science curriculum, 1243 00:54:43,666 --> 00:54:46,250 two months before they registered themselves 1244 00:54:46,250 --> 00:54:48,000 with the state of California, 1245 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,791 and found Panama College of cell science, 1246 00:54:50,791 --> 00:54:53,458 equivalent to US universities, 1247 00:54:53,458 --> 00:54:56,250 even though it was created by a guy 1248 00:54:56,250 --> 00:54:58,458 who didn't have a PhD, 1249 00:54:58,458 --> 00:55:01,583 but gave himself one from this very University, 1250 00:55:01,583 --> 00:55:04,291 he started and was merged in 1251 00:55:04,291 --> 00:55:08,375 some way by another university that he happened to found 1252 00:55:08,375 --> 00:55:10,833 as well called Blue Marble. 1253 00:55:10,833 --> 00:55:13,916 Yet the whole time the founder lives in the US, 1254 00:55:13,916 --> 00:55:15,083 and this is the college 1255 00:55:15,083 --> 00:55:17,916 that gives Kristin Comella a PhD, 1256 00:55:17,916 --> 00:55:21,083 who herself is listed as the number one stem cell 1257 00:55:21,083 --> 00:55:25,875 influencer in the world by the organization she founded and 1258 00:55:25,875 --> 00:55:28,375 was serving as president of when she gave 1259 00:55:28,375 --> 00:55:31,416 that pronouncement upon herself. 1260 00:55:31,416 --> 00:55:32,416 Wow. 1261 00:55:32,416 --> 00:55:35,791 Are you starting to feel like Kristin's PhD is fake? 1262 00:55:35,791 --> 00:55:37,583 So what do you think will happen 1263 00:55:37,583 --> 00:55:39,083 when she gives stem cells 1264 00:55:39,083 --> 00:55:40,625 to a non fake patient. 1265 00:55:40,625 --> 00:55:43,500 - Florida stem cell clinic sued after several patients 1266 00:55:43,500 --> 00:55:45,708 say they went blind after treatment. 1267 00:55:45,708 --> 00:55:46,750 - Tell them We're sorry, 1268 00:55:46,750 --> 00:55:49,583 and they got several million dollars so 1269 00:55:49,583 --> 00:55:51,291 and they were gonna go blind anyway. 1270 00:55:51,291 --> 00:55:53,250 - There's a such thing on social media 1271 00:55:53,250 --> 00:55:54,750 as manufactured links. 1272 00:55:54,750 --> 00:55:58,916 So one social media platform or health site or whatever, 1273 00:55:58,916 --> 00:56:00,416 will be sharing the others like, 1274 00:56:00,416 --> 00:56:02,625 Oh my gosh, we love these guys. 1275 00:56:07,625 --> 00:56:09,333 - Kristin is the president 1276 00:56:09,333 --> 00:56:11,416 of the Academy of Regenerative Practices 1277 00:56:11,416 --> 00:56:14,916 and she puts on a conference annually in Florida. 1278 00:56:14,916 --> 00:56:17,250 I was just down there in Florida a couple 1279 00:56:17,250 --> 00:56:20,583 of weeks ago, and was did a talk there. 1280 00:56:20,583 --> 00:56:22,250 - That was kinda this what some people call 1281 00:56:22,250 --> 00:56:23,375 a racket going on, 1282 00:56:23,375 --> 00:56:25,208 because they were not aware 1283 00:56:25,208 --> 00:56:27,375 that they were manufactured links 1284 00:56:27,375 --> 00:56:28,458 they thought they were just sharing out 1285 00:56:28,458 --> 00:56:30,083 of the kindness of their hearts. 1286 00:56:30,083 --> 00:56:33,416 - [Reporter] Erin Elizabeth sent this email to Paleo f(x). 1287 00:56:33,416 --> 00:56:35,000 - when I said to her, listen, 1288 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:36,666 these women were blinded she goes well, 1289 00:56:36,666 --> 00:56:38,250 there's two sides to every story. 1290 00:56:38,250 --> 00:56:39,750 - [Reporter] If Kristin is being charged 1291 00:56:39,750 --> 00:56:41,208 with anything illegal, 1292 00:56:41,208 --> 00:56:44,916 she will be judged by far more appropriate judges than me. 1293 00:56:44,916 --> 00:56:47,333 - They still had her as a one of the keynote speakers 1294 00:56:47,333 --> 00:56:48,166 at their event. 1295 00:56:48,166 --> 00:56:51,416 - [Reporter] Once the FDA filed the lawsuit against Kristin, 1296 00:56:51,416 --> 00:56:55,833 this CEO of Paleo f(x) makes a huge judgment 1297 00:56:55,833 --> 00:56:59,250 and campaign for Kristin in this Facebook Live video. 1298 00:56:59,250 --> 00:57:03,583 - Right now she is babbling on all of our behalf. 1299 00:57:04,666 --> 00:57:07,041 - [Reporter] So what due diligence exists 1300 00:57:07,041 --> 00:57:10,041 when selecting speakers at these conferences. 1301 00:57:10,041 --> 00:57:13,250 - Another example was a urologist and a plastic surgeon 1302 00:57:13,250 --> 00:57:15,625 who partnered together in California and wanted 1303 00:57:15,625 --> 00:57:18,208 to treat any pathology under the sun that 1304 00:57:18,208 --> 00:57:20,583 included neurodegenerative diseases. 1305 00:57:20,583 --> 00:57:22,750 I'm not sure what qualifications a plastic surgeon 1306 00:57:22,750 --> 00:57:26,708 or urologist has to treat Parkinson's disease, for example, 1307 00:57:26,708 --> 00:57:30,458 but they were building registries to try to disguise it 1308 00:57:30,458 --> 00:57:32,416 as a one giant clinical study, 1309 00:57:32,416 --> 00:57:34,041 even though they had a network of 50 doctors 1310 00:57:34,041 --> 00:57:35,750 around the country and saying 1311 00:57:35,750 --> 00:57:38,500 that they could bypass the FDA rules because it 1312 00:57:38,500 --> 00:57:41,125 was under the umbrella of a clinical study. 1313 00:57:41,125 --> 00:57:43,208 - [Reporter] If we look down the list of physicians who 1314 00:57:43,208 --> 00:57:45,916 are part of cell surgical network, 1315 00:57:45,916 --> 00:57:48,958 we Find Dr. Tami Meraglia. 1316 00:57:48,958 --> 00:57:52,416 Dr. Tami practices in Seattle, Washington. 1317 00:57:52,416 --> 00:57:55,416 Her website says three things you should know 1318 00:57:55,416 --> 00:57:58,083 before you do stem cell treatments anywhere 1319 00:57:58,083 --> 00:58:00,708 but Seattle Stem Cell Center. 1320 00:58:00,708 --> 00:58:03,250 - [Tami] Were blessed to be part of a clinical trial. 1321 00:58:03,250 --> 00:58:07,041 And there are 8,000 cases that have been recorded 1322 00:58:07,041 --> 00:58:10,333 and documented and no adverse events. 1323 00:58:10,333 --> 00:58:12,208 - [Reporter] First, she's a member 1324 00:58:12,208 --> 00:58:15,333 of a US based clinical trial IRB number, 1325 00:58:15,333 --> 00:58:19,916 ICSS 2016 004. 1326 00:58:19,916 --> 00:58:22,541 That's a very official looking number. 1327 00:58:22,541 --> 00:58:26,166 But unfortunately, it's absolutely bogus. 1328 00:58:26,166 --> 00:58:28,791 Potential patients must learn how to identify 1329 00:58:28,791 --> 00:58:30,333 these red flags. 1330 00:58:30,333 --> 00:58:33,250 Because the violative clinics have become so bold 1331 00:58:33,250 --> 00:58:36,375 and sophisticated with their deception. 1332 00:58:36,375 --> 00:58:40,625 First, an IRB study is not associated in any way 1333 00:58:40,625 --> 00:58:42,708 with an FDA permit like an IND, 1334 00:58:43,958 --> 00:58:48,500 an IRB is not an IND and this IRB is dubious. 1335 00:58:49,791 --> 00:58:51,000 Why? 1336 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,791 The company that granted the IRB number is the 1337 00:58:53,791 --> 00:58:56,458 International Cell Surgical Society, 1338 00:58:56,458 --> 00:58:59,750 the ICSS and according to 2019, 1339 00:58:59,750 --> 00:59:02,000 California records Mark Berman, 1340 00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:05,791 the CEO of Cell Surgical Network is also the CEO 1341 00:59:05,791 --> 00:59:07,000 of this company. 1342 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,750 And his business partner Elliot lander, 1343 00:59:09,750 --> 00:59:11,625 is the original processor 1344 00:59:11,625 --> 00:59:15,250 when this ICSS organization was formed, 1345 00:59:15,250 --> 00:59:18,791 as you can see in the 2013 California records. 1346 00:59:18,791 --> 00:59:21,916 So these business partners created another company 1347 00:59:21,916 --> 00:59:25,041 to grant IRB numbers to themselves. 1348 00:59:25,041 --> 00:59:26,291 Sound familiar? 1349 00:59:26,291 --> 00:59:29,916 And that's why Dr. Tami lists as the number one reason 1350 00:59:29,916 --> 00:59:32,541 to come to her for stem cell therapy. 1351 00:59:32,541 --> 00:59:34,375 And if that's not enough, 1352 00:59:34,375 --> 00:59:36,583 here's another red flag. 1353 00:59:36,583 --> 00:59:39,166 Healthgrades website shows she specializes 1354 00:59:39,166 --> 00:59:40,916 in legal medicine. 1355 00:59:40,916 --> 00:59:44,458 But on Dr. Tami's website, she says this. 1356 00:59:44,458 --> 00:59:47,083 - Many of our patients add exosomes 1357 00:59:47,083 --> 00:59:50,500 to every treatment to try and supercharge the cells 1358 00:59:50,500 --> 00:59:52,333 that they already have. 1359 00:59:52,333 --> 00:59:54,083 - [Reporter] And this. 1360 00:59:54,083 --> 00:59:57,333 - In fact, our hair and skin treatments can be done 1361 00:59:57,333 --> 01:00:00,416 with just cord or just exosomes 1362 01:00:00,416 --> 01:00:02,250 or a combination. 1363 01:00:02,250 --> 01:00:05,916 Cord blood derived stem cells and exosomes are labeled 1364 01:00:05,916 --> 01:00:07,541 as drugs by the FDA 1365 01:00:07,541 --> 01:00:09,666 and must have pre market approval, 1366 01:00:09,666 --> 01:00:11,166 which they do not have. 1367 01:00:11,166 --> 01:00:15,916 So all solutions she outlines are not legal medicine. 1368 01:00:15,916 --> 01:00:18,125 Dr. Tami was also featured 1369 01:00:18,125 --> 01:00:22,583 in The Healing Miracle by the ex con duo Brent Detelich 1370 01:00:22,583 --> 01:00:26,208 and Jeff Hayes with narrator Sarah Sheehan. 1371 01:00:26,208 --> 01:00:28,416 We'll see also two pretty remarkable stories 1372 01:00:28,416 --> 01:00:29,458 from your personal life. 1373 01:00:29,458 --> 01:00:30,708 What about in your practice? 1374 01:00:30,708 --> 01:00:34,166 - We have patients who have MS and we're going blind 1375 01:00:34,166 --> 01:00:36,791 and they're no longer going blind. 1376 01:00:36,791 --> 01:00:40,291 - [Reporter] Now, Dr. Tami is making her own docu series 1377 01:00:40,291 --> 01:00:41,500 on stem cells. 1378 01:00:41,500 --> 01:00:44,791 - Dr. Tami invited me to be at her upcoming docu series 1379 01:00:44,791 --> 01:00:47,916 on stem cells, and I did some due diligence. 1380 01:00:47,916 --> 01:00:49,583 - [Reporter] He sent her this email. 1381 01:00:49,583 --> 01:00:51,666 I found your CV online, 1382 01:00:51,666 --> 01:00:54,375 but it didn't list where you went to medical school. 1383 01:00:54,375 --> 01:00:57,416 Also, you outlined on your intro video that you 1384 01:00:57,416 --> 01:00:59,250 are double board certified 1385 01:00:59,250 --> 01:01:01,916 - And a double board certified MD. 1386 01:01:01,916 --> 01:01:03,625 - [Reporter] She appears to introduce herself 1387 01:01:03,625 --> 01:01:07,375 nearly everywhere as a double board certified MD. 1388 01:01:07,375 --> 01:01:09,250 - I'm a double board certified MD. 1389 01:01:09,250 --> 01:01:12,250 - [Reporter] Dr. Tami replied to his email saying she went 1390 01:01:12,250 --> 01:01:13,916 to a school in the Caribbean 1391 01:01:13,916 --> 01:01:16,416 and regarding the double board certification. 1392 01:01:16,416 --> 01:01:18,833 She said my board certifications 1393 01:01:18,833 --> 01:01:21,375 are not recognized by the AMA. 1394 01:01:21,375 --> 01:01:23,500 - But then I declined her invitation. 1395 01:01:23,500 --> 01:01:25,458 - [Reporter] Patients today need to know 1396 01:01:25,458 --> 01:01:29,750 that violators adulterate the valid IRB study process 1397 01:01:29,750 --> 01:01:31,750 by creating their own companies 1398 01:01:31,750 --> 01:01:34,708 to grant themselves the IRB study number 1399 01:01:34,708 --> 01:01:38,166 and then they use that number as a marketing ploy 1400 01:01:38,166 --> 01:01:40,625 to deceive the public by making it appear 1401 01:01:40,625 --> 01:01:42,666 they have something official. 1402 01:01:42,666 --> 01:01:44,916 They often exaggerate their credentials 1403 01:01:44,916 --> 01:01:48,583 and then they seduce the natural medicine industry 1404 01:01:48,583 --> 01:01:51,083 and adulterate the docu series platform 1405 01:01:51,083 --> 01:01:54,583 with their fake docu series that are really infomercials 1406 01:01:54,583 --> 01:01:57,208 in a shameless effort to promote themselves 1407 01:01:57,208 --> 01:02:00,208 in a further effort to create legitimacy, 1408 01:02:00,208 --> 01:02:03,333 when in fact, they are FDA violators. 1409 01:02:05,583 --> 01:02:07,291 - So we would send patients to surgery, 1410 01:02:07,291 --> 01:02:09,458 surgeon would say, Hey, I'm done. 1411 01:02:09,458 --> 01:02:10,625 We fix this. 1412 01:02:10,625 --> 01:02:13,541 Structurally it looks good now the MRI looks good 1413 01:02:13,541 --> 01:02:15,458 or the X ray looks good. 1414 01:02:15,458 --> 01:02:16,291 But at the end of the day, 1415 01:02:16,291 --> 01:02:18,208 it really wouldn't be fixed. 1416 01:02:18,208 --> 01:02:19,958 - In my career, 1417 01:02:19,958 --> 01:02:24,625 I ran benefit plans for three very large corporations 1418 01:02:24,625 --> 01:02:28,000 I manage Walmart stores a benefit plans for 1419 01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:29,375 about 15 years, 1420 01:02:29,375 --> 01:02:31,083 in certain ways in America, 1421 01:02:31,083 --> 01:02:34,625 we're experiencing an epidemic of misdiagnosis. 1422 01:02:34,625 --> 01:02:38,166 When I give a speech, I tell people pick up your smartphone 1423 01:02:38,166 --> 01:02:42,416 and Google in the term epidemic of misdiagnosis 1424 01:02:42,416 --> 01:02:43,708 and you gotta be, they're stunned 1425 01:02:43,708 --> 01:02:45,583 when they see what pours out. 1426 01:02:45,583 --> 01:02:47,416 One of the things we do an Edison Healthcare 1427 01:02:47,416 --> 01:02:49,625 is we take patients who've been told 1428 01:02:49,625 --> 01:02:51,750 to have a spine surgery, 1429 01:02:51,750 --> 01:02:54,125 and we send them to centers 1430 01:02:54,125 --> 01:02:58,625 that do an outstanding job of diagnosing people. 1431 01:02:58,625 --> 01:03:02,125 About 60% of the people we send to these centers 1432 01:03:02,125 --> 01:03:05,708 who've been told that spine surgery have been misdiagnosed 1433 01:03:05,708 --> 01:03:07,500 and don't need a spine surgery. 1434 01:03:07,500 --> 01:03:09,791 - [Reporter] Walmart saved $30,000 1435 01:03:09,791 --> 01:03:12,875 by seeking a second opinion at Geisinger where it 1436 01:03:12,875 --> 01:03:15,916 was revealed that the mild neck pain wouldn't improve 1437 01:03:15,916 --> 01:03:18,875 with spine surgery because the employee 1438 01:03:18,875 --> 01:03:21,166 actually had Parkinson's disease. 1439 01:03:21,166 --> 01:03:23,625 - One of the shocking statistics is that we realized 1440 01:03:23,625 --> 01:03:26,500 that for patients who have certain types 1441 01:03:26,500 --> 01:03:28,416 of musculoskeletal surgeries, 1442 01:03:28,416 --> 01:03:30,083 more than 50% of them 1443 01:03:30,083 --> 01:03:32,416 either did not receive a favorable outcome 1444 01:03:32,416 --> 01:03:34,166 or the procedure was inappropriate 1445 01:03:34,166 --> 01:03:36,250 and not medically necessary to begin with. 1446 01:03:41,583 --> 01:03:43,250 - I started as a surgeon, 1447 01:03:44,083 --> 01:03:46,000 but I was also had a PhD. 1448 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,500 And was trained in research. 1449 01:03:48,500 --> 01:03:50,750 - [Reporter] This is the C. Wayne Mcllwraith 1450 01:03:50,750 --> 01:03:52,958 Translational Medicine Center, 1451 01:03:52,958 --> 01:03:55,083 named after the founding director of the 1452 01:03:55,083 --> 01:03:58,833 Orthopedic Research Center at Colorado State University, 1453 01:03:58,833 --> 01:04:01,125 Dr. C. Wayne Mcllwraith. 1454 01:04:01,125 --> 01:04:04,083 - There was an internship in large animal surgery. 1455 01:04:04,083 --> 01:04:05,750 And that was when I knew what I wanted 1456 01:04:05,750 --> 01:04:07,291 to do for the rest of my life. 1457 01:04:07,291 --> 01:04:10,666 I wanted to be involved in equine surgery and I 1458 01:04:10,666 --> 01:04:13,416 was particularly interested in equine orthopedics. 1459 01:04:18,875 --> 01:04:21,000 Because at that time, there was no MRI. 1460 01:04:21,875 --> 01:04:26,875 And people would base their diagnosis on symptoms. 1461 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:28,625 And then often they'd say, well, 1462 01:04:28,625 --> 01:04:30,625 you've got medial knee pain, therefore, 1463 01:04:30,625 --> 01:04:31,750 we'll do an arthrotomy 1464 01:04:31,750 --> 01:04:33,708 and take your meniscus out. 1465 01:04:33,708 --> 01:04:36,708 And your meniscus wasn't always the problem. 1466 01:04:36,708 --> 01:04:39,125 So the thing with diagnostic arthroscopy 1467 01:04:39,125 --> 01:04:41,250 it revolutionized diagnosis, 1468 01:04:41,250 --> 01:04:44,416 because you could go in and ascertain do you 1469 01:04:44,416 --> 01:04:46,500 indeed have a meniscal tear? 1470 01:04:46,500 --> 01:04:48,750 Or do you have something else? 1471 01:04:48,750 --> 01:04:50,750 And then, when I got so far 1472 01:04:50,750 --> 01:04:52,208 with arthroscopic surgery, 1473 01:04:52,208 --> 01:04:54,333 as we've talked briefly about, 1474 01:04:54,333 --> 01:04:56,083 then you find your limitations. 1475 01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:00,708 And as they did in humans as well, 1476 01:05:00,708 --> 01:05:03,416 - For those of us who are clinician scientists, 1477 01:05:03,416 --> 01:05:06,125 you're motivated by frustration. 1478 01:05:06,125 --> 01:05:07,583 I mean, I hate to say it that way, 1479 01:05:07,583 --> 01:05:08,416 but that's what it is. 1480 01:05:08,416 --> 01:05:10,208 There's a question in the clinic, 1481 01:05:10,208 --> 01:05:11,750 you just can't answer. 1482 01:05:11,750 --> 01:05:15,041 You can't fix a horse or person or whatever it is. 1483 01:05:15,041 --> 01:05:18,041 - A big part of my caseload or resources. 1484 01:05:18,041 --> 01:05:20,250 And the phrase horses don't come back and win 1485 01:05:20,250 --> 01:05:24,041 in the same class that they were before injury. 1486 01:05:24,041 --> 01:05:25,750 That's a relative failure. 1487 01:05:25,750 --> 01:05:28,750 Just like the NFL player that can't come back 1488 01:05:28,750 --> 01:05:31,833 and play at the same level is a failure, 1489 01:05:31,833 --> 01:05:36,083 at least to the to the team management. 1490 01:05:36,083 --> 01:05:38,583 And so there's a lot of pressure for us 1491 01:05:38,583 --> 01:05:40,958 to get the optimal repair. 1492 01:05:44,083 --> 01:05:46,416 - I arrived back here in 92. 1493 01:05:46,416 --> 01:05:48,791 Dave Frisbie arrived in 93. 1494 01:05:48,791 --> 01:05:51,875 Three of us worked on all these projects is interesting 1495 01:05:51,875 --> 01:05:56,250 when we started doing the basic research around stem cells. 1496 01:05:56,250 --> 01:05:57,166 It's like, hey, 1497 01:05:57,166 --> 01:06:00,916 this could be really good. 1498 01:06:00,916 --> 01:06:04,125 -

Dr. Centeno. 1574 01:09:12,250 --> 01:09:16,583 And my firm we began working together to address the issue. 1575 01:09:16,583 --> 01:09:18,166 - [Chris] They actually put together and 1576 01:09:18,166 --> 01:09:20,416 sourced a couple different opinions. 1577 01:09:20,416 --> 01:09:21,541 At the time, 1578 01:09:21,541 --> 01:09:24,666 their opinion was this was all a medical procedure. 1579 01:09:24,666 --> 01:09:27,083 - So the tissue that's being used is taken 1580 01:09:27,083 --> 01:09:29,416 from the patient and put back into the patient, 1581 01:09:29,416 --> 01:09:31,208 - Its the patient's own cells. 1582 01:09:31,208 --> 01:09:33,916 And we were taking those cells and growing those cells 1583 01:09:33,916 --> 01:09:34,750 to bigger numbers 1584 01:09:34,750 --> 01:09:37,041 and putting them back into the same patient. 1585 01:09:37,041 --> 01:09:38,375 So that was not a drug 1586 01:09:38,375 --> 01:09:40,250 that did not need FDA approval. 1587 01:09:41,250 --> 01:09:43,083 So this was an interesting moment in my life 1588 01:09:43,083 --> 01:09:46,416 because I had gotten off the hamster wheel, 1589 01:09:46,416 --> 01:09:48,125 I'd sold my practice. 1590 01:09:48,125 --> 01:09:52,083 And I got a chance to do this two year study. 1591 01:09:52,083 --> 01:09:54,708 And this two year study and 50 patients, 1592 01:09:54,708 --> 01:09:57,250 I didn't need to charge the patients. 1593 01:09:57,250 --> 01:09:58,083 So I didn't. 1594 01:09:58,083 --> 01:09:59,291 And there were no textbooks. 1595 01:09:59,291 --> 01:10:01,666 There was nothing you could really read. 1596 01:10:01,666 --> 01:10:05,375 Because outside of a few things done in Paris, France 1597 01:10:05,375 --> 01:10:07,458 by Phillippe Hernigou and his group, 1598 01:10:07,458 --> 01:10:09,916 there was no one who had done anything like this. 1599 01:10:09,916 --> 01:10:12,166 - My first patient was in 1987. 1600 01:10:14,500 --> 01:10:17,250 It was a patient with iposonic crozes 1601 01:10:19,208 --> 01:10:23,708 and she's patient up to this moment is perfect. 1602 01:10:23,708 --> 01:10:27,208 She, she has not (speaks in foreign language) 1603 01:10:27,208 --> 01:10:30,041 and she is pain free, at this moment, 1604 01:10:30,041 --> 01:10:33,875 we have treated more than 4,000 patients 1605 01:10:33,875 --> 01:10:35,333 with bone marrow aspiration, 1606 01:10:35,333 --> 01:10:38,916 - Really that MRI evidence stuff is what got me excited 1607 01:10:38,916 --> 01:10:41,458 because it's one thing for the patient 1608 01:10:41,458 --> 01:10:43,500 to say they're feeling better, 1609 01:10:43,500 --> 01:10:44,958 they can do more, 1610 01:10:44,958 --> 01:10:47,250 but then it's another to see something like 1611 01:10:47,250 --> 01:10:49,250 that objectively on an MRI. 1612 01:10:51,583 --> 01:10:54,083 We know as physicians, this is working, 1613 01:10:54,083 --> 01:10:56,250 we published some early papers. 1614 01:10:56,250 --> 01:10:58,583 Let's go ahead and start offering this to patients. 1615 01:10:58,583 --> 01:11:02,416 - In 2008, Dr. Centeno had a website up 1616 01:11:02,416 --> 01:11:04,250 for regenerative sciences. 1617 01:11:04,250 --> 01:11:06,250 - And within six months of doing that, 1618 01:11:06,250 --> 01:11:07,916 we ended up getting a letter 1619 01:11:07,916 --> 01:11:10,041 from FDA certified letter. 1620 01:11:10,041 --> 01:11:11,750 But it basically said, hey, 1621 01:11:11,750 --> 01:11:15,625 we think you might be doing something that is akin 1622 01:11:15,625 --> 01:11:16,875 to creating a drug. 1623 01:11:16,875 --> 01:11:18,875 And if you do you need FDA approval. 1624 01:11:18,875 --> 01:11:20,958 But we're not taking a position on that yet. 1625 01:11:20,958 --> 01:11:23,500 - We file suit against the FDA. 1626 01:11:23,500 --> 01:11:25,625 - But every time we took that to a judge, 1627 01:11:25,625 --> 01:11:27,541 the judge would come back and say the case isn't right. 1628 01:11:27,541 --> 01:11:31,791 And what that means in legal terms, is that, hey, 1629 01:11:31,791 --> 01:11:34,083 the FDA is taking no position here 1630 01:11:34,083 --> 01:11:36,041 until they take a formal position 1631 01:11:36,041 --> 01:11:38,083 that what you're doing is wrong 1632 01:11:38,083 --> 01:11:39,458 or against the regulations, 1633 01:11:39,458 --> 01:11:41,708 you can't challenge them in court. 1634 01:11:44,416 --> 01:11:47,166 - At the highest level, it's established, 1635 01:11:47,166 --> 01:11:50,416 at least by the federal courts in Washington DC, 1636 01:11:50,416 --> 01:11:53,583 that FDA has the jurisdiction to regulate 1637 01:11:53,583 --> 01:11:56,958 these types of procedures, even when, again, 1638 01:11:56,958 --> 01:11:58,875 it's an autologous procedure. 1639 01:11:58,875 --> 01:12:01,250 So the tissue that's being used is taken 1640 01:12:01,250 --> 01:12:03,750 from the patient and put back into the patient. 1641 01:12:03,750 --> 01:12:06,750 - The FDA's only issue 1642 01:12:06,750 --> 01:12:08,750 was that we were culturing the cells 1643 01:12:08,750 --> 01:12:10,291 to get more cells, 1644 01:12:10,291 --> 01:12:13,250 if we just took the cells out 1645 01:12:13,250 --> 01:12:16,750 and isolated the stem cell fraction and put them back in 1646 01:12:16,750 --> 01:12:18,541 they didn't have a problem with that. 1647 01:12:19,666 --> 01:12:22,708 - [Reporter] So we see here that the FDA is okay 1648 01:12:22,708 --> 01:12:24,750 with you using your own stem cells 1649 01:12:24,750 --> 01:12:28,333 from your own bone marrow to treat orthopedic conditions 1650 01:12:28,333 --> 01:12:31,458 as part of the physician's practice of medicine. 1651 01:12:31,458 --> 01:12:34,750 However, the FDA will not allow a physician 1652 01:12:34,750 --> 01:12:36,416 to culture expand cells. 1653 01:12:36,416 --> 01:12:39,250 - And ultimately as a result of the case 1654 01:12:40,416 --> 01:12:44,166 We have the benefit of a stipulation 1655 01:12:44,166 --> 01:12:45,916 that allows regenerative sciences 1656 01:12:45,916 --> 01:12:49,125 to go forward with certain procedures 1657 01:12:49,125 --> 01:12:51,583 in the United States procedures not 1658 01:12:51,583 --> 01:12:53,666 involving culture expansion, 1659 01:12:53,666 --> 01:12:55,583 but procedures that are still in use today and 1660 01:12:55,583 --> 01:12:58,291 that have been audited on multiple times by FDA 1661 01:12:58,291 --> 01:13:01,583 procedures that involve simply the concentration 1662 01:13:01,583 --> 01:13:03,250 of the bone marrow, 1663 01:13:03,250 --> 01:13:06,083 and then the use of that concentrated bone marrow, 1664 01:13:06,083 --> 01:13:08,375 which is rich in stem cells 1665 01:13:08,375 --> 01:13:11,916 into the patient for orthopedic purposes. 1666 01:13:11,916 --> 01:13:13,041 - So why does it work? 1667 01:13:13,041 --> 01:13:15,000 It stimulates the body's reparative process, 1668 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:17,291 there is an innate ability to heal. 1669 01:13:17,291 --> 01:13:19,541 So a really easy analogy for me 1670 01:13:19,541 --> 01:13:21,416 is if you cut yourself, right, 1671 01:13:21,416 --> 01:13:24,916 you bleed and you clot and you just expect it 1672 01:13:24,916 --> 01:13:26,125 to heal because that's the natural process, right? 1673 01:13:26,125 --> 01:13:27,791 It's it's gonna heal. 1674 01:13:27,791 --> 01:13:28,625 Why does that happen? 1675 01:13:28,625 --> 01:13:30,291 'Cause there's a really rich blood supply. 1676 01:13:30,291 --> 01:13:32,958 And so when you're injured, those cells, those platelets, 1677 01:13:32,958 --> 01:13:34,750 they aggregate to the area, they clot, 1678 01:13:34,750 --> 01:13:37,291 they break down and they send out messages 1679 01:13:37,291 --> 01:13:38,708 hey body were injured, 1680 01:13:38,708 --> 01:13:41,166 send stem cells and reparative cells come in here, 1681 01:13:41,166 --> 01:13:43,750 clean the mess, let's rebuild the tissue, 1682 01:13:43,750 --> 01:13:45,208 certain tissues and the ones that you hear 1683 01:13:45,208 --> 01:13:46,583 that patients have surgeries for, 1684 01:13:46,583 --> 01:13:50,916 like labrum, and meniscus and discs, and joints, cartilage, 1685 01:13:50,916 --> 01:13:53,250 those are inherently poorly vascularized 1686 01:13:53,250 --> 01:13:55,125 they have a bad blood supply inherently, 1687 01:13:55,125 --> 01:13:57,250 as we age that blood supply becomes even worse 1688 01:13:57,250 --> 01:13:59,291 and we live life we fight gravity 1689 01:13:59,291 --> 01:14:02,500 and tissue breaks down and so then we need that 1690 01:14:02,500 --> 01:14:04,166 to heal and it doesn't it does just doesn't have 1691 01:14:04,166 --> 01:14:05,125 the capacity. 1692 01:14:05,125 --> 01:14:08,291 And so we have had the our paradigm has been 1693 01:14:08,291 --> 01:14:09,125 treat the symptoms 1694 01:14:09,125 --> 01:14:10,083 so make it feel better, 1695 01:14:10,083 --> 01:14:14,291 douse it with anti inflammatory or steroids or narcotics, 1696 01:14:14,291 --> 01:14:16,333 take away the pain, hide it, mask it, 1697 01:14:16,333 --> 01:14:17,166 and then when it's bad enough, 1698 01:14:17,166 --> 01:14:18,166 cut it out. 1699 01:14:18,166 --> 01:14:20,250 Right, or put a screw across it. 1700 01:14:20,250 --> 01:14:22,166 And so what we're realizing is 1701 01:14:22,166 --> 01:14:24,166 this really elegant system that the body has 1702 01:14:24,166 --> 01:14:25,250 that we're just activating it. 1703 01:14:25,250 --> 01:14:26,791 - We did a double blind randomized 1704 01:14:26,791 --> 01:14:29,375 controlled trial of intradiscal, 1705 01:14:29,375 --> 01:14:31,208 platelet rich plasma. 1706 01:14:31,208 --> 01:14:33,250 And we published that a few years ago, 1707 01:14:33,250 --> 01:14:35,625 and it showed a statistically significant improvement 1708 01:14:35,625 --> 01:14:38,583 in outcome and functional improvement. 1709 01:14:38,583 --> 01:14:39,916 And we just went through our five 1710 01:14:39,916 --> 01:14:41,750 to nine year outcome. 1711 01:14:41,750 --> 01:14:44,708 Study data from the original double blind study 1712 01:14:44,708 --> 01:14:47,416 and it shows 70% success with one injection 1713 01:14:47,416 --> 01:14:48,750 for average of six years. 1714 01:14:52,166 --> 01:14:53,833 - And as I think you've already learned 1715 01:14:53,833 --> 01:14:58,375 there's a big variation between valid biologic therapies 1716 01:14:58,375 --> 01:15:00,000 and non valid, 1717 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:04,625 and like the use of the term stem cells has become abused. 1718 01:15:04,625 --> 01:15:07,916 - If this field is ever going to be real, 1719 01:15:07,916 --> 01:15:10,291 we have to get rid of those bad actors. 1720 01:15:10,291 --> 01:15:13,500 - And that's why you've got to have places 1721 01:15:13,500 --> 01:15:17,458 to protect honesty or develop honesty. 1722 01:15:17,458 --> 01:15:19,833 And so that Interventional Orthopedic Foundation, 1723 01:15:19,833 --> 01:15:22,500 which is where I met you, that meeting, 1724 01:15:22,500 --> 01:15:23,416 and I'm on the board. 1725 01:15:23,416 --> 01:15:24,791 - So I went through the fellowship with Dr. Centeno, 1726 01:15:24,791 --> 01:15:26,708 he's one of the reasons why I came out here 1727 01:15:26,708 --> 01:15:28,208 because of the high level of training that you get, 1728 01:15:28,208 --> 01:15:29,666 we don't really get that anywhere 1729 01:15:29,666 --> 01:15:30,500 in the United States, 1730 01:15:30,500 --> 01:15:32,916 where you can get great spine and joint training. 1731 01:15:32,916 --> 01:15:35,416 So Doc Centeno really founded that with the clinic 1732 01:15:35,416 --> 01:15:37,000 and then he kinda expanded that 1733 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:40,000 to be available to all the physicians in the US and abroad. 1734 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:40,833 With the Iowa. 1735 01:15:40,833 --> 01:15:43,416 - It's an important group to turn around and not 1736 01:15:43,416 --> 01:15:45,083 only prove efficacy, 1737 01:15:45,083 --> 01:15:48,416 but also encourage research 1738 01:15:48,416 --> 01:15:51,541 that defines what's the most effective treatment. 1739 01:15:51,541 --> 01:15:53,583 - I'm the head team physician for the Atlanta Hawks. 1740 01:15:53,583 --> 01:15:56,500 I also am a team doctor for the Atlanta Braves. 1741 01:15:56,500 --> 01:15:59,791 My concern is that from a government 1742 01:15:59,791 --> 01:16:01,583 and a regulatory point of view, 1743 01:16:01,583 --> 01:16:03,458 they're not gonna, at some point, 1744 01:16:03,458 --> 01:16:04,666 they're either not gonna be able to, 1745 01:16:04,666 --> 01:16:07,083 or they're not gonna want to distinguish the good actors 1746 01:16:07,083 --> 01:16:08,500 from the bad actors. 1747 01:16:08,500 --> 01:16:10,875 And they're gonna throw the baby out with the bathwater, 1748 01:16:10,875 --> 01:16:11,791 so to speak. 1749 01:16:11,791 --> 01:16:13,875 - So you need an organization to kinda sift through 1750 01:16:13,875 --> 01:16:15,708 this in a scientific manner, 1751 01:16:15,708 --> 01:16:19,083 to create standards and guidelines to create a method 1752 01:16:19,083 --> 01:16:22,958 that the mainstream medical profession would appreciate. 1753 01:16:22,958 --> 01:16:25,041 - Like, I think I'm a pretty darn good doctor, right. 1754 01:16:25,041 --> 01:16:27,416 But when I'm given all of this information, 1755 01:16:27,416 --> 01:16:28,583 it's really difficult. 1756 01:16:28,583 --> 01:16:31,250 - Different products that confuses the general public 1757 01:16:31,250 --> 01:16:32,083 and in fact, 1758 01:16:32,083 --> 01:16:35,416 confuses most of the mainstream medical professionals. 1759 01:16:35,416 --> 01:16:37,791 - It's taken a year so I've been doing this for 10 years. 1760 01:16:37,791 --> 01:16:39,208 And I'm still not, I don't consider myself 1761 01:16:39,208 --> 01:16:40,625 a cell expert at all. 1762 01:16:40,625 --> 01:16:43,000 - I think I was an early adopter of some 1763 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:47,791 of our earliest trials of orthobiologics, PRP and such, 1764 01:16:47,791 --> 01:16:49,750 as well as using ultrasound, 1765 01:16:49,750 --> 01:16:52,875 which is not standard for orthopedic surgeons. 1766 01:16:52,875 --> 01:16:54,916 - Education is the name of the game. 1767 01:16:54,916 --> 01:16:55,791 It's about learning. 1768 01:16:55,791 --> 01:16:57,083 It's about getting better. 1769 01:16:57,083 --> 01:16:59,250 - $200,000 worth of equipment in here 1770 01:16:59,250 --> 01:17:01,875 you can see we always have the image broadcast 1771 01:17:01,875 --> 01:17:03,875 on the TV because it's important for the patient 1772 01:17:03,875 --> 01:17:04,708 to know what we're doing. 1773 01:17:04,708 --> 01:17:06,416 We don't do any blind injections, 1774 01:17:06,416 --> 01:17:09,041 we know that the efficacy of blind injections is only 1775 01:17:09,041 --> 01:17:10,750 about 50 to 60%. 1776 01:17:10,750 --> 01:17:12,416 When you add an image guided injection, 1777 01:17:12,416 --> 01:17:14,166 you can get the efficacy up to 100%. 1778 01:17:14,166 --> 01:17:17,750 - Going to the Mecca and seeing exactly where all 1779 01:17:17,750 --> 01:17:21,083 this stuff is being done and how it 1780 01:17:21,083 --> 01:17:22,416 was being done. 1781 01:17:22,416 --> 01:17:24,291 Just made me think this 1782 01:17:24,291 --> 01:17:26,750 is exactly what I should be doing 1783 01:17:26,750 --> 01:17:28,291 exactly what I should be doing. 1784 01:17:30,791 --> 01:17:33,291 -
