STEM CELLS FOR MACULAR DEGENERATION Sam Smith #39;s story.wmv
stemcell.md Meet Sam, a visual artist who was confronted with the one thing a man in his profession fears most: Compromised vision. In his case his ability to see clearly was being undermined by age-related macular degeneration (AMD.) As conventional medicine could offer little hope of significantly turning his condition around, Sam sought out pioneering physician and stem cell medicine expert, Dr. David Steenblock. In this video Dr. Steenblock explains how he harvests and uses a patient #39;s own stem cell-rich bone marrow to help effect healing. Sam is then shown having an IV drip infusion of his own bone marrow. The segment picks up six weeks later with Sam discussing how he could discern improvements in his vision within the first ten days following his treatment. Specifically, the vision in his left eye had improved while that in his right eye was now normal.From:btancredi1Views:308 0ratingsTime:02:17More inScience Technology
