Andrew Brooks, MD, a joint replacement specialist, is the only orthopedic surgeon in Solano County to offer the treatment. PRP injections use plasma and platelets to help with healing and uses a patient’s own tissues.

Dr. Brooks recieved his medical degree from University of Oklahoma College of Medicine in Oklahoma City and completed his residency at University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
