Hal shares his rules when it comes to treating patients and the steps that he takes. Denise asks what he would do with a knee replacement, Hal says that if you can still move your knee then there is no possible way your knee is bone on bone no matter what it looks like on the x-ray. Therefore, he would wear it out more slowly and save your knees for when you want to use them and find a way to grow cartilage faster using creams. Through his own experience with using these methods Hal states that after 6 months he was pain free and back on the tennis court. Moving on to hips, according to Hal hips are a harder case and he goes to steam cells much more quickly then he would with knees.
