Overview

According to its website, Benton Franklin Orthopedic Associates is a full-service orthopaedic practice serving the Tri-Cities area of Washington State, and the site states it has been operating for over thirty years, though it does not give a specific founding year. The practice has a large team of named surgeons and other clinicians.

The site describes a broad range of orthopaedic surgery, including arthroscopic shoulder and knee surgery, joint replacement, hand and upper-extremity procedures, foot and ankle surgery, sports medicine, and interventional pain management, alongside physical and occupational therapy. Its one regenerative offering named on the site is platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection, a treatment prepared from a concentrate of the patient's own blood.

The site does not describe the use of stem cells of any kind. A prospective patient looking specifically for stem cell therapy would need to confirm with the practice that none is offered beyond PRP.
