Matrix II Doctor Testimonials

The following testimonials are from medical practitioners that have used the Matrix II on their patients.

  • I am an orthopedic surgeon practicing in B.C. and have been in active practice of orthopedics for 13 years. I have considerable experience in using electrical stimulation for non-unions.

    At the request of Dr. M MacDonald, I utilized the Matrix II on two patients. The first (B.B.) is a lady with post-traumatic problem of her left elbow. She had a total elbow replacement and presented with a nonunion of a distal humeral fracture. After stimulation with the Matrix II, she showed evidence of bony union which is progressing in strength.

    The second patient (G.V) is a 23 year old male with a congenital pseudoarthrosis of his left tibia. He has had multiple fractures and multiple surgical procedures. He started with the Matrix II in December and when last see in September, appeared to have solid bony union.

    If I can offer further information with regards to this system, I would be happy to do so. I am certainly very impressed with the efficacy and would be prepared to use it in future cases.

    Dr. M. P. MD., M.Sc., F.R.C.S. F.A.A.O.S.

  • This is just a line to say how impressed and happy I have been with the Matrix II electrical bone stimulator for delayed and nonunion of fractured bones.

    It seems to be better than any of the others and is certainly much more cost effective.

  • I have had occasion to use Dr. Myron MacDonald's Matrix II external Bone Stimulator in the treatment of difficult non-unions. The clinical results in the majority of these patients has been excellent. I have found Dr. MacDonald's apparatus quite straight forward and reliable.

    Yours Truly,
    S. M., M.D., B.A., F.R.C.S. ( C )

  • I have another Patient that would, I am sure, benefit from the use of your Matrix II system. This is a young man of 30 years who is a commercial fisherman who has a fracture of the proximal shaft of the right humerus which was sustained in September and which is showing an hypertrophic non-union.

    I propose to electrically stimulate the fracture and apply a shoulder cast to immobilize the humerus and it would be much appreciated if you would kindly send me another unit that I can apply to this patient.

    With many thanks and kind regards.

    Yours truly,
    F.C.H., M.D., Ch.B., F.R.C.S.
