Adult obesity in Clearwater is 33.3% (CDC PLACES 2023). That shows up in wound offloading and in joint-preservation volume — not as a slogan. Adult arthritis here is 29.4% (CDC PLACES 2023, crude). That is the joint-pain backdrop for PRP and orthobiologics — not a promise that every arthritic knee is a candidate. Payer geography: JN / First Coast Service Options, sibling states no other states. Florida Department of Health is the public-health home. We will not mash those grains into a fake “demand score.”
