David A. Sugar, MD, is an orthopedic surgeon with his own practice, Sugar Orthopaedics, in Sarasota, Fla.
Dr. Sugar earned his medical degree from the University of South Florida College of Medicine in Tampa and completed his residency in orthopedic surgery at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago.
In an effort to offer platelet-rich plasma treatment, stem cell and amniotic cell therapy, Dr. Sugar teamed up with two regenerative medicine companies: Arteriocyte Medical Systems in Hopkinton, Mass., and Amnio Regen Solutions. Dr. Sugar decided to offer regenerative medicine to Sarasota and the surrounding area due to the level of arthritis and other joint related injuries sustained in Florida.
