Overview

California Orthopaedic Specialists is a group orthopaedic practice in Newport Beach, California, which the website says was established in 1974. It works on a team model, with seven board-certified orthopaedic surgeons and a physician assistant, and offers both surgical and non-surgical care. Surgery is carried out at an affiliated hospital rather than at the office itself.

The practice organises its work by part of the body rather than by diagnosis: shoulder; elbow, wrist, hand and finger; spine; hip; knee; and foot and ankle. Conservative treatment options are offered alongside operations, so patients are not automatically routed to surgery. Regenerative medicine appears as one of the treatment categories listed.

For readers specifically interested in cell-based treatment, the homepage names regenerative medicine but gives no further detail. It does not say what is injected, does not name a cell source such as bone marrow, fat or umbilical cord tissue, and does not mention platelet-rich plasma or exosomes. You would need to contact the practice and ask which surgeon offers it, what the product actually is and what evidence supports its use for your condition.
