DENo personal experience No personal experience, but as a medical doctor who's had his own share of sports-related injuries (I guess you could call it arthritis, but I don't, yet), I've been interested in early reports in the use of platelet rich plasma for tendinitis and knee arthritis. HOWEVER no good quality study has ever proven it works. If regenexx goes beyong PRP to actual stem cells this might be different, but I'd wait to see the evidence. Knee arthritis is a common condition and therefore an intervention like this is relatively easy to study in a randomised controlled fashion.

GBCheck the Costs Just make sure you check the cost. I got a spine procedure done in Dallas for $1300 while that same exact procedure in Pittsburgh was $4500.

GBRepair of serious rotator cuff tears.... After a fairly serious set of tears to my rotator cuff, Regenexx and my Doctor at Centeno Schultz did super concentrated PRP on my shoulder. Within a week or so, I was pain free, and then after 4 months, I was playing competitive racquetball again. Now, a year later, I'm still pain free, riding long distance bicycle events, golfing and playing racquetball with little thought to my shoulder.

GBFind the doctor who has a good amount of experience I am 50 year old man with chronic back pain. I decided to try the PRP injections, and took 2 time procedure of Regenexx DDD, which costs me total of $8K. Unfortunately, this didn't work out well, and I wasted my time. This procedure was performed in San Diego office by Dr. Derrington, who's kind, but lack of clinical experience because I realized his diagnosis and procedure turned out incorrect, and his treatment wasn't enough to address my issue.

GBFDA would approve if valid Never had this done but if the fda doesn’t approve the treatment it’s because it isn’t effective. So people shell out money for an unapproved treatment then write a bad review and say they are ripped off? Well thanks for your reviews folks it has helped me see the obvious.
