Default Has anyone heard of this?

While doing some looking on the web I ran across a number of centers that are offering autologus stem cell treatment for many conditions including ALS, MS and Parkinson's. Has anyone else heard of these. In particular there is the Stem Cell Rejuvenation Center in Phoenix, Arizona. Very interesting.

Default lots of disclaimers and no listed successes

Well, I took a look at their site and I saw a whole lot of disclaimers and no statement regarding success rate or even testimonials. They probably can't or won't, either, for fear of getting sued. But locating themselves in Phoenix area which is where a LOT of seniors needing medical help live, is suspect to me. Also, very convenient that they are 8 minutes from the airport. They make it as easy as possible to come give them eight grand!

I couldn't find any verbage where they say where the cells go once they are extracted. If they just inject them back in...how do they get where they need to be? How many patients have they treated and with what result(s)?

I wonder what the Mayo Clinic folks in Scottsdale, Az think of this place?
