Overview
The practice behind this listing trades on its own site as the Bregman Foot-Ankle & Nerve Center, based in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is a podiatric practice with an unusual double focus: surgery and treatment of peripheral nerve problems in the foot and lower limb, and a regenerative medicine service that the site presents as going well beyond the foot.
On the podiatric side the site describes minimally invasive foot and ankle surgery, bunion correction, diabetic foot care and flat foot treatment. Its nerve work is given particular prominence, including Morton's neuroma, tarsal tunnel syndrome and nerve entrapment, traumatic nerve injury and pain persisting after previous surgery. The site states a preference for nerve decompression over cutting the nerve out, and advertises a service for difficult cases and second opinions, including patients travelling from out of state and abroad.
The regenerative service is built around a product the site calls a Regenerative Protein Array. According to the site this is made from placental layers donated after healthy live births at United States hospitals and universities, contains more than 80 cytokines, growth factors and micro-ribonucleic acid molecules, and is acellular, meaning it contains no living cells. The site states that donors are screened for communicable disease and a 20-year medical history, and that the product is treated as exempt from the federal biologics regulations at 21 CFR Part 1271. That regulatory claim is the clinic's own and a prospective patient may wish to verify it independently.
Alongside that product, the site lists platelet rich plasma (PRP, prepared from the patient's own blood), amniotic tissue and fluid, stem cells from fat, bone marrow or umbilical cord, and exosomes described as vesicles derived from stem cells. The site's list of conditions for regenerative treatment extends far beyond podiatry to neurological and autoimmune diseases and serious chronic illness. This is a marked widening of scope for a podiatric practice, and such uses of cell and placental products are generally not established treatments, so readers should ask what evidence the clinic relies on.

Cell Sources and Technologies
The site describes several different biological products, and is more specific than most clinics about where its main product comes from, though the breadth of conditions it links them to goes far beyond established practice.
Regenerative Protein Array — the site states this is derived from placental layers donated after healthy live births at United States hospitals and universities, that it is acellular so contains no living cells, that it contains over 80 cytokines, growth factors and micro-ribonucleic acid molecules, and that donors are screened for communicable disease and a 20-year medical history.Amniotic tissue and fluid — the site states this is collected at scheduled caesarean sections and is available either acellular or containing stem cells, making it allogeneic (from a donor).Stem cells — the site names fat, bone marrow and umbilical cord as sources. Fat and bone marrow would be autologous (from the patient's own body); umbilical cord material is allogeneic (from a donor). The site does not say which source is used for which condition.Exosomes — described by the site as communication vesicles derived from stem cells. The site does not state whose cells they come from or who manufactures the product.Platelet rich plasma (PRP) — stated by the site to be derived from the patient's own blood, so autologous.
Physicians and Clinical Team
The site is built almost entirely around one clinician.
Peter J. Bregman, DPM — podiatric foot and ankle surgeon and practice owner; the site states he is board certified by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery, completed a Harvard-affiliated surgical residency at Cambridge Hospital and an international fellowship in paediatric foot and ankle surgery at Vilnius University, and has been in practice for nearly 30 years, 15 of them in Las VegasNo other clinician is named on the pages reviewed. Third-party listings suggest additional physicians are associated with the practice, but the site itself does not publish their names or credentials, so a prospective patient should ask who would actually perform any regenerative procedure.
Facility and Patient Experience
The practice works from a single Las Vegas address on West Sunset Road, presented as a combined podiatric and nerve centre rather than a multi-site group. The site publishes a local telephone number and a toll-free number, and has a dedicated page for patients travelling from other states or countries, which suggests it takes referrals from a distance. The site does not describe the treatment rooms, operating arrangements, imaging equipment or any facility accreditation, and does not say where biological products are stored or handled. It also does not state whether surgery is carried out on site or at a separate centre.
- Location: 7150 West Sunset Road, Suite 110, Las Vegas, Nevada 89113
- Single-site practice; no branches listed
- Local and toll-free telephone numbers published
- A dedicated page addresses out-of-state and international patients
- The site publishes case studies and patient resources sections
- The site states the practice has been recognised as a top three podiatrist locally for eight consecutive years by a ratings website
- No facility accreditation, laboratory arrangement or surgical venue is described
Cost and Payment
The site publishes no prices, price ranges or cost estimates for any treatment, including its Regenerative Protein Array, stem cell, exosome and platelet rich plasma services, and does not say whether any of them are covered by insurance. Given that it actively invites patients travelling from out of state and abroad, the absence of any indication of cost is worth noting; figures would have to be requested directly.
