“Great listerner, caring thoughtful in diagnosis.”
Couldn't be a better doctor. I wish all doctors were as genuinely concerned for what is the best course of action.

“Intradiscal Stem Cell / PRP Injection in my Spine”
About 6 weeks ago, I went to RSI for a stem cell and PRP injection in my lumbar spine (L4/L5 and L5/S1). I badly injured my back 10 years ago and have two degenerated/herniated discs that have caused me constant dull pain, loss of mobility, and impaired athletic performance.
I won't know the full benefits of the treatment for another few months but I am already feeling better than I can remember. Stiffness in the morning is gone and mobility is returning. This is the future of medicine!

“Dr. Lutz is terrific!”
When you're in pain you just want it to go away, but understanding why it's happening is equally important to feeling better. Now that I have seen how well Dr. Lutz explains complicated results from MRI's, I would recommend him to anyone.
