What You'll Learn
Why your knee stopped healing — the biology your orthopedic surgeon probably never explained, and why "bone on bone" only tells half the story
Why the injections that didn't work for you weren't a failed treatment they were a correct treatment, delivered incorrectly
What biologics like PRP and BMAC actually do inside your joint explained plainly by a surgeon trained at the same clinic that treats Olympic athletes
The one thing most patients never know: surgery permanently closes the door on biologics. Biologics do not close the door on surgery.
How to find out in a free 15-minute call before any appointment, before any commitment whether your knee is even a candidate for this approach

What Patients Are Saying About Dr. Ziegler
Patient who came in after being told knee replacement was inevitable. References Dr. Ziegler's thoroughness, the time he took to explain their options, and how they left with a clear answer instead of a surgery date.
- James R.
Patient who had a prior rushed or dismissive orthopedic experience elsewhere. References what was specifically different about the Vitality evaluation — the imaging review, the one-on-one time with the surgeon, leaving with an actual written plan.
- Mark Allen
General experience review referencing Dr. Ziegler's communication style, the concierge feel of the practice, or the contrast with a prior rushed orthopedic experience.
- Thomas Lehman
What Patients Are Saying
About Dr. Ziegler
"My visit was for a second opinion for a knee injury I was being treated for with no relief or action from my current doctor. Dr. Ziegler was very knowledgeable, and I left feeling very optimistic about my recovery process."
Kim Gardy
"This doctor is the very best in every way. Motivating and knowledgeable. He truly listens and has solutions to your issues. I had one knee operated on by him and just scheduled my other knee. I've never experienced such an amazing surgeon and at 74 I've had a few!"
Kat Clark
"I have had 4 previous knee surgeries before the one he did — his was much more extensive — and recovery pain was way less. I'd say he's a magician but really he's just a very skilled surgeon."

What Patients Are Saying
"I walked in expecting another surgeon to hand me a surgery date. Instead, Dr. Ziegler spent over an hour going through my imaging, explaining exactly what was happening in my knee and why replacement wasn't my only option. I left with a real plan not a referral to the front desk."
- James R.
"After two orthopedic appointments where I felt like a number, the Vitality experience was completely different. Dr. Ziegler reviewed my MRI himself, sat with me one-on-one, and I walked out with an actual written treatment plan. I finally felt like someone had genuinely looked at my case."
- Mark Allen
"Honestly, I was skeptical, I'd seen the PRP ads everywhere and assumed this was more of the same. What was different here was that Dr. Ziegler is an actual fellowship-trained surgeon. He told me upfront whether I was a candidate and why. No pressure, no pitch. Just answers."
- David K.

Is This Webinar Right for You?
This IS
For You If:
You've tried cortisone, PT, or basic injections — and you're still in pain or back to where you started
A doctor has told you surgery is "the next step" and you want to understand if that's actually true today
You tried PRP or regenerative treatment somewhere else, and it didn't work and you want to know why
You want to find out if you're even a candidate before committing to anything
You want honest answers from a fellowship-trained surgeon, not a sales pitch from a regenerative franchise
This Is NOT
For You If:
You're looking for a quick fix without understanding your options
You've already had your procedure and you're fully satisfied with your outcome
You'd rather search Google than hear directly from a board-certified surgeon who does this work every day
If you're still reading, you're probably exactly who this is for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will The Session Be Recorded?
Yes — registrants receive the replay within 24 hours. That said, Dr. Ziegler takes live questions during Q&A and candidacy
call slots announced during the webinar are first-come. If you can attend live, attend live.
Is This a Sales Pitch?
No. This is a surgeon-led educational session. Dr. Ziegler's goal is to make sure you understand what is actually happening in your joint and what your real options are before you make a decision. There is no pressure toward any treatment.
Can I Ask Questions?
Yes. Dr. Ziegler takes live questions at the end of the webinar. Submit them in the chat as they come up.
Who Is This Webinar For?
Anyone who has been told knee replacement is their next step, has tried treatments that didn't work, or is living with pain they've been managing longer than they should have to. If you're in the Farmington Valley and you want a real answer from a real orthopedic surgeon, this is for you.
What Is The Joint Restoration Candidacy Call?
It's a free 15-minute phone call with Dr. Ziegler's team to determine whether your situation is a fit for a regenerative approach. No commitment, no in-person visit, no insurance required. If you qualify, the next step is to schedule the Joint Restoration Evaluation™, which is billed by most major insurance plans. Your out-of-pocket is typically your copay or less.
Will My Insurance Cover a Consultation With Dr. Ziegler?
The Joint Restoration Evaluation™, the in-person appointment that follows the candidacy call, is billed to most major insurance plans. Dr. Ziegler's team verifies your specific coverage before your appointment, so you will not walk in wondering what this is going to cost you. Note: regenerative treatments (PRP, BMAC) are separate from the evaluation and are cash-pay. That conversation happens during your evaluation, transparently and without pressure.
What if I'm Not a Candidate For Biologics?
Dr. Ziegler's team will tell you that directly on the candidacy call — and explain why. If you move forward to the evaluation and a regenerative approach still isn't the right fit, Dr. Ziegler will tell you what he recommends instead. He does not build a practice by putting patients into treatments they're not right for. The worst outcome is clarity. That is not a bad outcome.
How Long Is The Webinar?
Approximately 50–55 minutes of presentation followed by live Q&A. Plan for 70 minutes if you want to stay for questions.
