The Chesterfield, Missouri office of Bluetail Medical Group, a multi-state regenerative and sports medicine practice using bone marrow cells and platelet injections.
Bluetail Medical Group is a regenerative and sports medicine practice with offices in several states, and Chesterfield in the St Louis suburbs is one of them. The site presents the practice as focused on accurate diagnosis followed by minimally invasive injection treatment rather than surgery, and lists further locations in Columbia and Farmington in Missouri, Naples in Florida, De Pere in Wisconsin, Thousand Oaks in California and Indianapolis in Indiana.
Three kinds of injection are described. Regenerative cellular therapy uses cells taken from bone marrow drawn from the patient's hip, which the site also refers to 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 the body's healing response; it is not a cell treatment. All the cell-based material described is autologous, meaning it comes from the patient's own body, and the site is clear that the bone marrow comes from the hip.
The range of problems listed is wide for a musculoskeletal practice, covering bones, muscles, joints and soft tissues, spinal and chronic pain, osteoarthritis, rotator cuff tears, plantar fasciitis, ligament injuries, sprains and strains, and also nerve injuries and concussion. The site refers to a page on compliance with the United States Food and Drug Administration and to published work, which suggests the practice is attentive to regulatory framing, though the substance of those pages was not available for review.
No prices are published and the site makes no statement about insurance. The pages reviewed name Dr Podesta and Dr Wolf without setting out their credentials, and do not confirm which clinicians work at the Chesterfield office specifically. A prospective patient would want to establish who would treat them, what a full course of treatment costs, and what the practice's own published results are.
The conditions named cover musculoskeletal injury and degeneration, 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.
Two doctors are named across the practice, without credentials on the pages reviewed.
The Chesterfield clinic is at an address on Olive Boulevard in Chesterfield, a western suburb of St Louis. It is an outpatient clinic for diagnosis and injection treatment, with ultrasound and other imaging implied by the nature of the work, though the site does not detail the equipment. No laboratory, cell processing suite or accreditation is described, and the site does not say where bone marrow samples are prepared.
The site publishes no prices and says nothing about insurance cover. Regenerative injections of this kind are generally not funded by insurers in the United States, so a prospective patient should ask for a written quotation covering the whole course of treatment, including any repeat injections and follow-up.
