The Columbia, Missouri office of Bluetail Medical Group, offering bone marrow concentrate and platelet injections for joint and soft tissue problems without surgery.
This is the Columbia office of Bluetail Medical Group, a regenerative and sports medicine practice with several sites in Missouri and further offices in Florida, Wisconsin, California and Indiana. The Columbia clinic is on Forum Boulevard and names two physicians, Dr David Crane and Dr Chris Wolf. The site says the practice's St Louis physicians have worked in regenerative medicine since 2008, which puts it among the longer-established practices of its kind in the state.
Two injection treatments are named for this location: bone marrow concentrate, which the site also calls autologous stem cell therapy, and platelet rich plasma (PRP, prepared from the patient's own blood). Autologous means the material comes from the patient's own body, and the practice's wider pages say the bone marrow is drawn from the hip. Prolotherapy, an injection of an irritant solution intended to provoke a healing response, is offered across the group. The site does not publish protocols, the number of injections in a course, or outcome data.
The conditions named are musculoskeletal and fairly specific, which is a good sign in this field: osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder and ankle, low back and neck pain, plantar fasciitis, tennis and golfer's elbow, carpal and tarsal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff injuries, ligament injuries and sprains and strains. There is no claim on this page to treat systemic disease.
Nothing is published about cost or insurance for this location. Injection treatments using a patient's own bone marrow or platelets are generally not funded by insurers in the United States, so a prospective patient should ask for a written quotation covering the full course, and should ask which of the two named physicians would carry out the procedure.
The conditions named at this location are specific musculoskeletal problems rather than systemic disease.
The site describes its cell treatment as bone marrow concentrate, an autologous (from the patient's own body) preparation, which the group's other pages say is drawn from the hip.
Two physicians are named for this office.

Opening hours are not published for this location on the pages reviewed.
No prices are published for this location and no insurance information is given. Treatments of this kind are generally self-funded in the United States, so a prospective patient should ask for a written estimate covering the whole course of treatment and any follow-up.
