A duplicate listing for Bluetail Medical Group's Chesterfield, Missouri clinic, a regenerative and sports medicine practice using bone marrow and platelet injections.
This entry points at the same website and the same Chesterfield, Missouri premises as the separate Bluetail Medical Group listing in this directory; the practice spells its name as one word, Bluetail. Readers should treat the two entries as one clinic. The contact details attached to this listing, including a telephone number with a Kentucky area code and a doctor's name that does not appear on the practice's own site, do not match anything published by the practice and should not be relied upon.
Bluetail Medical Group is a regenerative and sports medicine practice with offices in several states, run on the principle of accurate diagnosis followed by minimally invasive injection rather than surgery. Besides Chesterfield it lists Columbia and Farmington in Missouri, Naples in Florida, De Pere in Wisconsin, Thousand Oaks in California and Indianapolis in Indiana.
Three treatments are described. Regenerative cellular therapy uses cells from bone marrow drawn from the patient's hip, also described as bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC). Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is prepared from the patient's own blood platelets. Prolotherapy involves injecting an irritant solution intended to provoke a healing response, and is not a cell treatment. All the cell material named is autologous, meaning it comes from the patient's own body. The directory's note about adult mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue is not what the site says; only bone marrow is named as the cell source.
The problems listed cover bones, muscles, joints and soft tissues, osteoarthritis, rotator cuff tears, plantar fasciitis, spinal and chronic pain, ligament injuries, nerve injuries and concussion. No prices are published, no insurance statement is made, and the pages reviewed name Dr Podesta and Dr Wolf without credentials. A prospective patient should confirm which doctor would treat them at Chesterfield and obtain a written cost for the full course.
The conditions named are musculoskeletal, with nerve injury and concussion also listed.
The site states its cellular therapy uses cells taken from bone marrow extracted from the patient's own hip.
The names published by the practice differ from those in this listing.
The Chesterfield clinic is on Olive Boulevard in Chesterfield, a western suburb of St Louis, and is the same premises as the other Bluetail listing in this directory. It is an outpatient clinic for diagnosis and injection treatment rather than a surgical facility. No laboratory, cell processing suite or accreditation is described, and the site does not say where bone marrow samples are prepared.
No prices are published and the site makes no statement about insurance. Injections using a patient's own bone marrow or platelets are generally not funded by insurers in the United States, so a written quotation covering the whole course of treatment should be requested.
Profile compiled from information published on the clinic's own website and from the StemCell Registry directory record. Details may change; confirm directly with the clinic before making decisions.
