"Dr. Zhao, stem cell therapy is great in every way except for the cost; if the cost could be reduced, there would truly be no downsides."
Qu Xiaofeng remarked with a bit of regret. As doctors, the ideal scenario would be treatments that are both effective and reasonably priced, but in reality, any method that works well is usually the most expensive.
The main reason for this is that the development of new drugs worldwide is almost exclusively undertaken by private conglomerates, which inherently drives the pursuit of profit for new drugs.
Although stem cell therapy is not exactly like a new drug, the expensive equipment means each treatment session is still quite costly.
"Stem cell therapy is personalized treatment, and the cost is unlikely to drop in the short term."
Zhao Heng said.
