What happened next changed everything. For her clinic, her patients, and her purpose.
When you meet Dr. Leslie Carmen, you quickly realize this is more than a career for her. It is a calling. Based in Boca Raton, Florida, she opened her clinic in 2011 after facing something no parent ever expects.
Her daughter had just been diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia, one of the most painful conditions known to medicine. It is often referred to as the “suicide disease” because of the unrelenting, unbearable pain it causes. Traditional medicine offered only medications that left her daughter sedated and disconnected from life.
But Dr. Carmen wasn’t willing to accept that.
She began researching. Studying. Searching for something that would give her daughter real relief. That search led her to laser therapy. They found a clinic offering it, and within weeks, her daughter’s condition dramatically improved. She was herself again.
“If there’s something out there that can actually save lives, I have to be a part of it.”
That moment changed everything. It didn’t just give her daughter back her life. It gave Dr. Carmen her mission.
When traditional treatments failed, she refused to give up
As the clinic grew, Dr. Carmen helped countless patients with laser therapy. But over time, a difficult truth emerged. Some patients were not getting better.
These were not just names on a schedule. These were people who trusted her. People who had already tried everything else. People who were still in pain.
That is when she knew she needed to look again.
She took a chance on an ad that sounded ‘too good to be true’ and it sparked a breakthrough
One day, Dr. Carmen was scrolling through Facebook when she came across a StemWave ad. What caught her attention was not just the science. It was the way the company presented itself. No pressure. No gimmicks. A 60-day money-back guarantee and a team that stood behind their product with confidence.
“That’s the kind of company I want to work with.”
She made the call. The conversation was easy. Respectful. Honest. And soon, her new device arrived.
What happened next surprised even her.
It didn’t just work. It worked fast.
She opened the box and immediately felt a connection. Not just because of the design, although she called it sleek and modern. It was the energy. The feeling that this tool was different.
She started by treating herself. Her knee pain eased. Her elbow felt better. Then she treated friends and family. Then staff. Then she called back the patients she had tried everything for.
“People who got no results from laser were seeing 10 to 30 percent relief after one treatment.”
They were standing up. Moving more freely. Smiling again. There were tears. Not because of pain, but because of hope.
One patient. One treatment. Everything changed.
One day, a woman arrived at the clinic, barely able to walk. She used a walker and was sobbing. Not out of frustration, but despair. She told Dr. Carmen, “Please help me. I can’t live like this anymore.”
They walked slowly back to the treatment room. Dr. Carmen explained StemWave and suggested they try it. One session. A few minutes. No promises.
When it was over, the woman stood up. Her face changed. She started crying again. This time from joy.
“She looked at me and said, ‘I feel hope again.’ We were all crying. That moment still gives me chills.”
The woman had canceled a dream cruise because of her condition. After ten StemWave sessions, she was finally able to take the trip. And she did.
Why this isn’t just another device
For Dr. Carmen, this was not just about what the technology could do. It was about the people behind it. She describes the StemWave team as kind, supportive, and fully available.
“I have three people I can reach out to if I ever have a question. That kind of support is rare. It makes you feel like you’re part of something bigger.”
And that something is more than business. It is a shared mission to give people their lives back. To serve without causing harm. To bring lasting change into the world of pain care.
This is what purpose looks like on Monday morning
Dr. Carmen often works six or even twenty-one days in a row. And yet, she says she wakes up excited. Every single day.
“I never think, ‘What am I going to do today?’ I think, ‘Whose life can we change today?’”
She sees pro athletes, elderly patients, children, and middle-aged adults who thought they were out of options. She sees transformations. She hears the words “I’m pain-free” on a regular basis. And every time, it fuels her.
She calls it a gift. Not a job. Not a duty. A gift.
If you’re still searching for something that works, try this
This is a story about staying curious. About refusing to give up on patients who need more. About discovering something that actually moves the needle when nothing else seems to.
And Dr. Carmen’s advice to other providers?
“Try it. Use it on yourself. Use it on the patients you couldn’t help before. Watch what happens.”
Because sometimes, the difference between a frustrated patient and a breakthrough story is the tool you put in your hands.
Dr. Carmen put her trust in StemWave. Now her patients put their trust in her.
And for providers who still believe healing should feel like hope, not hardship, this is the next step forward.
