Caveat Emptor 1. I have done same day stem cell injections (twice) plus multiple rounds of PRP in my knees (torn ACLs, meniscus). It worked great. (This was not a Regenexx related facility.) Still skied and played tennis. 2. Due to concern about declining number of stems cell available via the same day procedure, I decided to try Regenexx Cayman cultured stem cell procedure. 3. Everything was professionally done. Cost for phase 1 was $10,500. 4. After cells were cultured, I was advised everything was good, so I booked hotel, air fare, etc to return for re-injection. 5. Ten days prior to my departure, I was advised that only 5 million stem cells were available and that I needed 30 million for the number of injections I needed on both knees. The doctor therefore did not want to proceed. 6. Stem cells were not counted prior to culturing so there was no way to know if I had any expansion. There was no known probability of whether another $10,500 bone marrow aspiration/culture would result in more than 5 million stem cells. 7. I therefore was left with no good way forward and was out $10,500 plus money spent on plane tickets. 8. The low rating is due to the lack of transparency/ expecatation management. When the count was known 4 months prior, I should have been contacted and advised of the issue. Moreover, one would think Regenexx would have an idea of whether a 30 million count is common, particularly for my age range. 9. The bottom line is I can’t recommend Regenexx Cayman due to either a lack of knowledge of metrics for stem cell counts and more importantly a failure to relay likelihood of one having the number of stem cells needed after culturing. If 5 million per round of culture is the likely outcome, I would have to pay over $60K and then the $12,500 for injections. 10. Maybe that is something some people will pay, but I decided to cut my losses and walk away. I wish FDA would approve cultured stem cells in the U.S. as I believe there would be greater rigor applied to the process. For now, caveat emptor.

I have been using Regennex for a few… I have been using Regennex for a few years now. I am pleased with the outcome everytime. I can tell when i am due for a visit. Before i started the Regennex treatment , i tried acupuncture, cupping,physical therapy, nerve ablation, nerve root blocks and steroid injections . Nothing worked even the previous back surgeries. I have hope now. Thank you Dr.Lieber and thank you Regennex for your cutting edge research and training. Now, if the insurance companies would approve these procedures more people could have a new lease on life .

I had great pain relief in my L knee… I had great pain relief in my L knee for approximately 5 months. I think my joint inflammation after time destroyed my stem cells. Whatever destructive process caused my bone on bone arthritis, persisted. I think the key is to decrease the inflammation prior to the stem cell therapy. I don't think more stem cells will be helpful. I still think that it was worth trying initially

If you are considering PRP or Stem Cell… If you are considering PRP or Stem Cell Therapy you should try to contact a Regenexx partner. They are professional, honest, and have the most experience in the USA or Canada. We have dealt with Dr. Fenton in Winooski Vermont and Dr. Centeno in the Cayman Islands (also in Broomfield Colorado). They have pioneered regenerative medicine and share a lot of that experience on their website. Please check out their website (regenexx.com) and get a free copy of Dr. Centeno's book.

Stem cell procedure on my knee Stem Cell procedure on my knee: The first few months after my procedure, my knee felt great. It has gotten progressively worse. At the 6 month follow up appointment, the doctor said that I needed a "booster shot" for $1,400. However, during the appointment, he didn't even examine or touch my knee. I felt as though all he was concerned about was more money.
