New Orleans orthopaedic practice offering bone marrow derived stem cell injections and platelet-rich plasma alongside robotic-assisted knee replacement.
Richard L. Meyer Jr., MD runs an orthopaedic practice in New Orleans, Louisiana, listed on the site as Orthopedic Specialists of New Orleans. The practice covers orthopaedic surgery and sports medicine and has a dedicated section on orthobiologics, meaning injection treatments made from the patient's own tissue.
The stem cell service described on the site involves taking bone marrow from the patient and injecting the cells into the affected joint or tendon. Platelet-rich plasma injections, prepared from the patient's own blood, are offered as a separate option. The site names hyaluronic acid and growth factors as components discussed alongside these treatments.
Surgical work at the practice includes Mako robotic-arm assisted knee replacement. The website does not name any physician other than Dr Meyer and gives only the MD credential, without listing board certification or fellowship training. It also gives no prices. Both are worth asking about directly.
The material used is taken from the patient rather than from a donor.
Only one clinician is named, with limited credential detail.
The clinic is at 3434 Prytania Street, Suite 310, New Orleans, Louisiana 70115. The website does not publish opening hours, the year the practice was established, languages spoken beyond English, or any dedicated service for patients travelling from other countries.
No prices are published for stem cell injections, platelet-rich plasma or consultations. These injections are commonly not covered by insurance, so ask for a written quote and check with your insurer.
