An orthopaedic practice in Morristown, Tennessee that lists stem cell and platelet rich plasma treatment using the patient's own cells, without naming the cell source.
The East Tennessee Center for Orthopaedic Excellence is an orthopaedic practice at 2263 Sandstone Drive, Morristown, in east Tennessee. Its regenerative medicine page is short, listing two things: stem cells and platelet rich plasma (PRP, concentrated platelets prepared from the patient's own blood). The page states that treatment uses the patient's own cells together with platelet rich plasma, which indicates an autologous approach rather than a donor product.
A prospective patient should be aware of how little the page actually specifies. It does not say where the stem cells come from — bone marrow, fat or anywhere else — how they are collected, how they are processed, how the injection is guided, or how many treatments a course involves. Saying the cells are the patient's own narrows it, but the absence of a named source is a real gap and a reader comparing providers would need to put that question to the clinic directly.
The condition information is similarly broad. The page describes the scope as ranging from sore shoulders to chronic injuries and disabling conditions across a person's lifetime, without setting out a list of diagnoses for which the regenerative treatments are used. No statement is made about regulatory or investigational status, and no outcome claims are published.
The practice does name its clinical team: one physician, one podiatric physician and three family nurse practitioners. Contact is by telephone on 423.353.1070 or by email. No prices are published, and no founding year or language information is given; the site's copyright notice reads 2021.
The regenerative page describes its scope only in general terms, from sore shoulders to chronic injuries, without naming specific diagnoses.
The page states that treatment uses the patient's own cells together with platelet rich plasma, but it does not name the cell type or say where in the body the cells are taken from, so a prospective patient would need to ask.
The site names five clinicians; it does not state which of them performs the regenerative injections or what additional training they hold in that area.
The practice is an outpatient orthopaedic clinic at 2263 Sandstone Drive in Morristown, in the eastern part of Tennessee between Knoxville and the Virginia border. The site gives little detail about the premises beyond the address and contact details, and does not describe imaging, theatre or cell processing facilities, state any accreditation, or mention which languages are spoken. A prospective patient wanting an autologous cell treatment would need to ask where the harvesting and processing are carried out.
The site publishes no prices and makes no statement about the cost of the stem cell or platelet rich plasma treatment or about insurance. A prospective patient would need to telephone for a figure.
