In this episode, I talk with orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist, Dr. Jervis Yau, MD. We discuss a wide range of topics including hip impingement, rotator cuff tears, PRP and stell cell injections and ACL recontructions.
Dr. Yau has a particular interest in minimally invasive techniques of the shoulder, knee, hip, elbow and ankle, as well as joint preservation and cartilage restoration procedures. He has published articles in peer-reviewed publications, books and orthopedic presentations dedicated to sports medicine and orthopedic conditions and treatments.
