Using the Internet to Find Answers for Arthritis in Dogs
The internet has quickly become a resource to many pet owners, especially those seeking new solutions for their dog’s arthritis. In this Examiner article, Dr. Selmer does a great job of taking a complicated subject of stem cell therapy for dog arthritis and making it an easy read. In the video embedded in the article, you will see how a dedicated pet owner used the internet to find new solutions for her dog’s arthritis pain due to elbow dysplasia.
Stem cells are quickly becoming many veterinarians’ treatment of choice for pets that have pain due to arthritis. But with over 50,000 veterinarians in the country, many are still learning about this new therapy. While there are veterinarians like Dr. Michel Selmer who researched new solutions for his patients suffering from arthritis pain and are now offering stem cell therapy, many veterinarians hear about this new modality from their clients. At Vet-Stem we have created a letter for pet owners to download and share with their veterinarian.
