Speech to focus on inflammation, cancer and healthy stem cells
September 23, 2010 – Deerfield Beach, FL – Dr. Dipnarine Maharaj, MD, FACP of The South Florida Bone Marrow/Stem Cell Transplant Institute will be a featured speaker at Cell Science Systems / The ALCAT Laboratories on Monday, October 18, 2010. The topic of his speech is How to Reduce Inflammation and Risk for Cancer by Collecting and Storing Healthy Stem Cells. It will highlight the importance of how stem cell therapy can benefit patients.
Roger Deutsch, President and CEO of Cell Science Systems, and author of the book, Your Hidden Food Allergies Are Making You Fat, will also be a featured speaker at the dinner discussion.
“We are delighted to have Dr. Maharaj as our guest to lecture about this increasingly important topic. It is a valuable addition to any regenerative integrative medical practice” said Deutsch.
Dr. Maharaj is dedicated to refining Bone Marrow Stem Cell transplant treatments in order to achieve the highest quality of care possible. Dr. Maharaj is also an accomplished author and frequent speaker. He has published several scientific papers in journals such as, Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, British Medical Journal, and, The Lancet.
“I chose to study Hematology/Oncology to make a real difference in the quality of cancer care and to help change people’s lives for the better. My education helped shape me as a doctor and as a person. But for me, learning never ends. My patients are far too important” stated Maharaj.
Dr. Maharaj has extensive experience in performing outpatient bone marrow / stem cell transplants since 1995. He has demonstrated that the majority of patients can be treated safely with minimal complications on a totally outpatient basis. This has been achieved by close monitoring and early intervention through all phases of the treatment by the same staff. Patients who receive a totally outpatient bone marrow / stem cell transplant return home following treatments and remain with family and loved ones.
Every day, lives are changed as a result of the South Florida Bone Marrow / Stem Cell Transplant Institute. Under the direction of Dr. Dipnarine Maharaj, The South Florida Bone Marrow / Stem Cell Transplant Institute offers a full range of outpatient treatments for many hematologic cancers including: Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Leukemia, and Multiple Myeloma. There are also other treatments such as immunotherapy for cancers. Patients are cared for by a team of highly-skilled professionals with extensive training and experience in treating cancers that react favorably to stem cell transplants. This specialized approach helps patients whose cancer has shown little or no response to other methods of treatment.
The “day 100” post-transplant mortality rate and patient success rate of being alive and disease free match or exceed those of nationally know transplant centers. The incidence of infections in this program is significantly lower than at inpatient transplant centers. That says a lot about trusted, quality care that you can feel good about.
