Framingham, Massachusetts orthobiologic practice offering bone marrow and fat-derived injections, platelet treatments and stem cell banking, with a Florida sister office.
Boston Applied Biologics is a private orthobiologic practice based in Framingham, Massachusetts, with a second office in Boca Raton, Florida. It treats patients directly and is not a research institute. The practice states it sees patients from across the United States as well as from Canada, Mexico, Europe and Asia, so it does accommodate people travelling for treatment. It asks patients to keep their relationship with their own primary care doctor and requires recent X-rays and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before a first consultation, which is a sensible screening step.
The treatment list is broad. Core orthopaedic services are bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) drawn from the patient's marrow, fat aspirate taken from the patient's own adipose tissue, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet lysate from the patient's blood, and alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M), a protein isolated from blood. Injections may be placed into bone (intraosseous) or into spinal discs (intradiscal) for back pain. The practice also offers shockwave treatment and the Discseel procedure, a fibrin-based disc treatment.
Beyond orthopaedics, the practice offers services that are cosmetic or wellness rather than musculoskeletal: platelet-rich plasma for hair loss and facial treatment, erectile dysfunction treatment, intravenous infusions including NAD+ and anti-ageing drips, and stem cell banking, in which a patient's cells are stored for possible later use. A significant gap is that no physician is named. The site refers to a medical director but does not give a name or credentials on the page reviewed, so ask who will perform your procedure and what their training is.
The practice covers most major joints plus the spine. Ask what published evidence supports the specific injection proposed for your own diagnosis, and be clear about which services are orthopaedic and which are cosmetic or wellness offerings.
All the biological products named are taken from the patient's own body. Exosomes are not mentioned, and umbilical cord or amniotic products are not offered on the pages reviewed.
No physician is named on the pages reviewed. The site refers to a medical director but gives no name or credentials, which is a notable omission for a practice performing bone marrow and disc procedures.
The Massachusetts office is at 600 Worcester Rd, Suite 301, Framingham, MA 01702, telephone (508) 231-5700. A second office is at 240 W. Palmetto Park Rd, Suite 320, Boca Raton, Florida 33432. The practice states it treats patients from across the United States and from Canada, Mexico, Europe and Asia. Recent X-rays and MRI are required before an initial consultation. Opening hours, year of establishment and languages spoken are not published.
No prices or consultation fees are published on the pages reviewed, though the site has a cost section. These orthobiologic treatments are generally not covered by insurance in the United States. Ask for a written quotation covering imaging review, harvest, injection and any repeat treatment.
