Go for the Gold with Orthobiologics and Dr. Bright McConnell

CHARLESTON, S.C. - Aug. 3, 2016 - PRLog -- All attention is on Rio and the 2016 Olympics, but athletes in Charleston, SC can go for the gold without ever leaving town.  They can play their best games by treating injuries with orthobiologics instead of traditional surgery.   Charleston Sports Medicine's Dr. Bright McConnell combines traditional orthopedics with cutting-edge techniques in regenerative medicine. Coupling his extensive sports medicine (http://www.charlestonsportsmed.com/services/sports-medicine-and-performance) experience with the latest minimally invasive treatments, he provides patients a unique scope of options and keeps athletes out of the operating room.
