Un proveedor de medicamentos de CU.

Jason L. Dragoo, MD, Professor and Vice Chair of Academic Affairs for the CU Department of Orthopaedics, is a pioneer in the field of Biologics and Regenerative Medicine, as well as minimally invasive Sports Medicine procedures. He is the Endowed Chair of Regenerative Medicine and has developed many procedures designed to augment the healing of a patient’s own body. He strongly favors the use of autologous procedures (the use of the patient’s own tissue or cells for the procedure) versus allograft procedures (using tissue and cells from another human). Dr. Dragoo believes that joint restoration techniques, which add tissue back to a damaged joint, should be used whenever possible (eg. cartilage and meniscal transplantation), rather than procedures that are designed to take tissue away (meniscal resection). He approaches standard procedures such as ACL reconstruction, meniscal and tendon repair with a less-invasive approach than commonly performed. A significant number of Dr. Dragoo’s patients are elite athletes (professional, collegiate, or Olympic) but he welcomes athletic patients of all ages and treats them with the same philosophy and surgical or non-surgical techniques.

El Dr. Dragoo es el médico principal del equipo de los Denver Nuggets. También es médico consultor del equipo de esquí de EE. UU. y anteriormente fue el médico principal del equipo del Programa de Fútbol de Stanford durante 13 años. El Dr. Dragoo creció en el Valle de Napa y es un ávido coleccionista de vinos, entusiasta de las actividades al aire libre, entrenador de fútbol juvenil y piloto de globos aerostáticos.
