AASCP Appointing Dr. Pedro M. Abrantes as Chair of The Podiatry Division

MACOMB, Mich. - Nov. 8, 2019 - PRLog -- We are honored to announce that Atlas Doctor, Dr. Pedro Abrantes of the Florida Lower Extremity Foot and Ankle Center is speaking at the 23rd World Congress of Podiatry held by The International Federation of Podiatrists. Since the inception of the World Congress of Podiatry in 1966, this world-class event serves to be the largest gathering of international podiatrists who will join together as colleagues from over 40 countries. The conference features oral and poster presentations, interactive workshops, and an exhibitor hall of over 100 podiatric service providers from around the world.

The American Academy of Stem Cell Physicians (AASCP) has also appointed Dr. Pedro Abrantes as the chair of the podiatry division under the specialty advisory committee. Dr. Abrantes will also be taking part in the Ethical Committee as well as on the Peer Review Team.

Dr. Abrantes will be speaking and presenting his thoughts on PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma). Although it is not exactly clear how PRP works, laboratory studies have shown that the increased concentration of growth factors in PRP can potentially speed up the healing process. Platelet-rich plasma therapy has made headlines, often because it is favored by elite athletes to help them recover from injury.

Dr. Abrantes specializes in treating many disorders of the lower extremity involving the foot and ankle utilizing the latest conservative and advanced reconstructive techniques. We are thrilled to hear of Dr. Abrantes being honored and wish him the best of luck on lecturing at this weekend's AASCP Scientific Congress and Workshops in Miami, FL.
