Cutting Edge Laser Technologies
Innovative Laser Therapy for Orthopedics

CIO VendorHarold Kenrick, CEO
In the current era of healthcare reform, declining reimbursements are the greatest financial challenge in the face of physicians trying to grow their businesses. As an increasing number of healthcare groups adopt bundled payment programs to realize healthcare cost savings, diligence in providing the best results for patients becomes a necessity. Observing over 500,000 deaths from opioid overdose since 2001, many states mandate surgeons to explore beyond the boundaries of surgeries and drugs and offer alternatives for pain relief. In fact, in orthopedics, 85 percent of patients encountered by surgeons on a day-to-day basis have conditions that can be remedied without surgery. MLS Laser Therapy is the answer.

To help the orthopedics space ease into this eventuality, New York-based Cutting Edge Laser Technologies offers its laser innovation, the Multiwave Locked System (MLS) Laser Therapy, a new approach to pain management. Over a 100 million Americans have back pain, and another 45 percent of the population predicted to have osteoarthritis down the road. The team at Cutting Edge believes they can solve the issue of chronic pain management that’s crippling the U.S. population.

Orthopedic surgeons can help their existing patients and attract new ones by providing treatments with less pain and faster recovery times with this non-pharmacological and non-surgical solution to pain. “Our motto is ‘Better Medicine = Better Business’, and we’re here to help,” says Harold Kenrick, CEO, Cutting Edge Laser Technologies.

There are over 25,000 MLS units worldwide in 90 countries treating 15 million patients per year. MLS is the only patented Class- IV laser in the world that doesn’t generate heat. This is important for the orthopedic surgeon because they can use it over screws, plates, and hardware without denaturing the DNA or creating any thermal damage.

The MLS fires two lasers up to four to five centimeters penetration, both simultaneous and synchronized—this is our secret sauce


“The MLS fires two lasers, firing both simultaneous and synchronized and penetrating 4-5 centimeters deep— this is our secret sauce,” says Kenrick.

The mechanisms of the product during the therapy involves blocking pain signals to the brain and extracting all toxins like histamine and cytokine out of the cells allowing more oxygen and food loads to enter. Stimulating the mitochondria, the energy in the cells, leads to ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) production, which is actually cell growth.

Kenrick recalls a particular incident wherein a nurse who had invested $30,000 on a custom knee for getting a total knee replacement, came for a consultation with Cutting Edge. “We treated her over a three week period, and that was three years ago. To this day, she never had to get that knee replaced,” says Kenrick.

Totally pre-programmed and easy to use, the robotic MLS is the only unattended laser in the world that frees up the staff members to help with new patients. The company makes a concerted effort to provide awareness of their product and explain their value propositions to orthopedic surgeons as alternatives to both surgeries and drugs. “With over 200 years of marketing and sales experience, we ensure the physicians’ success by providing all the marketing they need,” says Kenrick.

Orthopedic executives tasked with growing revenues for their practices will find MLS Laser Therapy is the “Perfect” Cash base modality to add to their practice. Many practices have added multiple units to their various offices because of their initial success.

“While we’re working on an orthopedics-specific platform, we intend to foray into more verticals as part of our plans for future growth,” says Kenrick. Providing a win-win solution for both the patients and the surgeons provides a promising future for Cutting Edge.

Cutting Edge Laser Technologies Celebrates Decade Long Partnership with Canine Rehabilitation Institute

Utting Edge Laser Technologies celebrates their 10th year partnering with the Canine Rehabilitation Institute (CRI).
ROCHESTER, NY, UNITED STATES,-- Cutting Edge Laser Technologies celebrates their 10th year partnering with the Canine Rehabilitation Institute (CRI). This anniversary marks a significant milestone for both organizations and underscores their commitment to veterinary rehabilitation and continuing education.
Through this partnership, Cutting Edge provides laser therapy equipment for CRI’s Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist (CCRT) program.
“Canine Rehabilitation Institute has had a fantastic, long standing professional relationship with Cutting Edge Laser Technologies. We appreciate their dedication to educating our students as well as offering incentives to bring photobiomodulation into daily practice,” shares Kara Amstutz, DVM, DACVSMR, CEO of Canine Rehabilitation Institute.
Based in Rochester, New York, Cutting Edge offers veterinary professionals throughout the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico with a full family of Surgical and MLS Therapy Laser devices. With over 20 years of experience, their mission is to help practitioners improve quality of patient care while helping veterinary hospitals and clinics strengthen their bottom line with innovative technologies.
“We are thrilled to reach this milestone in our relationship with CRI. Their expertise and dedication to continuing education paired with our world-class technologies has brought tremendous value to the veterinary community and the future of canine rehabilitation,” shared Mark Mollenkopf, President of Cutting Edge Laser Technologies. “It’s a testament to our shared vision.”
As a premier institution for canine rehabilitation, CRI offers a challenging and collaborative learning environment where students gain hands-on experience learning state-of-the-art techniques and strategies to integrate them successfully into their practices.
Over the past two decades, laser therapy has seen considerable growth in human and animal medicine providing a conservative approach to pain and inflammation. The MLS Therapy Laser, offered exclusively by Cutting Edge, is an advanced Class IV laser technology that uses a patented emission system to synchronize two specific wavelengths of photon energy known for their antiphlogistic, antiedemic, analgesic and regenerative/reparative effects.
This therapy offers a solution to patients unable to tolerate conventional analgesic pharmacotherapy as well as those who did not see desired effects with medication alone. MLS Laser Therapy can also be used in conjunction with pharmaceutical analgesics as well as other therapeutic modalities common in veterinary medicine, such as electrotherapy and magnetotherapy, to further improve outcomes.
Through this long-term partnership, Cutting Edge and CRI hope to leverage their unique strengths and competencies to provide comprehensive high-quality continuing education opportunities that elevate the field of canine rehabilitation.
