The Medical Director of Utah Stem Cells joins Drew to discuss the past, present, and future of regenerative therapies.

Dr. Cimikoski discusses why all stem cells are not created equal, the benefit of using bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, the multitude of therapies available, and important information about what to look for when choosing a regenerative medicine wellness clinic.
