TESTIMONIAL

"After a steriod injection from another provider didn't provide any pain relief, I went to MARC and saw Dr. Hunter. He explained the PRP procedure to me and that there would be no down time and no time off work. The PRP injection was not extremely painful, just like getting another shot. Within 5-7 days I began to feel the results. Now, 3 months later I still have no thumb or wrist pain. I can carry things with no problem. I can put pressure on my wrist again. The results have been amazing!"
