First of all this review is real! I have never been pressured to purchase anything from Dr. Thorson and he is always kind and listens and I have had great relief from my treatment. The doctor is trying to help patients but it’s certainly not his fault if something doesn’t work. It’s DNA or science. He’s just a great guy.

Dr Thorson is meticulous and thorough. He uses state of the art technology, and he is skilled at injections. I have total confidence and he has injected me over 40 times.

Dr Thomson has helped me tremendously with chronic back pain. Great clinic, great staff. Recommend highly.

Stay away from stem cell centers. My knees are worse and back are worse than before. Xrays and MRI before and after prove my statement. They have nothing to show any positive results in their office. When I confronted them I was threatened. Beware!!!!!

So I see after getting a bunch of horrible reviews all of a sudden within a few days of each other there's a bunch of 5-star views with one two three word reports. He just needs to stop doing the latest get-rich-quick ripoff like 'stem cells". He's not even at his own sales seminars. I was skeptical right away when the was a paid person doing the presentation.

Wild claims of miracle cures. Take a minute and search "stem cell scam " and see the outcry against this scam. It's too late for me but maybe not for you.

$15K to be a human guinea pig. I don't doubt that most of the "5 star" reviews on here for him are fake. My friend also said he's come to realize it is clearly just a cash grab on those with nerve damage desperate for help. With some more digging, it looks like he did the same thing for fat stem cells before that got shut down. I'm going to see if the MN Attorney General is interested in his practices as well as some attorneys for class action lawsuits. No doubt the lawyers will be banging down the door to get at the millions he has bilked from desperate folks.
