A Perth practice of Dr Robert Simons offering injection treatments for joint and tendon problems, listing bone marrow concentrate and stem cells among its cell therapies.
The site is published under the name Perth Stem Cell Treatment Centre and names Dr Robert Simons as the doctor. This record lists the practice as Joint Medicine Perth, so a reader should expect the two names to refer to the same rooms at 7 Pike Street, Karrinyup, in Perth's northern suburbs.
The site describes itself around biological therapies that it says use the patient's own tissue to accelerate and intensify healing, for joint degeneration, injury and repair after surgery. Its treatment pages are grouped into Biological Therapies - platelet rich plasma (prepared from the patient's own blood), prolotherapy, Orthokine and skin rejuvenation - and Cell Therapies, whose entries are platelet rich plasma, bone marrow concentrate, Orthokine therapy and stem cells. There is also a section for athletes and a set of new patient forms.
The detail is thin. The site states that its treatments are autologous, meaning taken from the patient's own body, but the pages that could be retrieved do not say what kind of stem cells are used, where they are taken from, how they are prepared, or what a course of treatment involves. Anyone considering treatment here would need to put those questions to the practice directly.
The site is built on Google Sites and states a registration date of 2014, so some of what it says may be out of date. It gives no clinician credentials, no year of establishment beyond that registration date, no languages and no information about cost.
The site names the following as the problems its biological therapies are aimed at.
The site groups bone marrow concentrate and stem cells under a Cell Therapies heading and says its biological treatments use the patient's own tissue, but it does not describe the cells or their preparation in any detail.
The site names one doctor and gives no credentials for him.
The site describes rooms at 7 Pike Street, Karrinyup, Western Australia, open 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday, contactable on (08) 9446 9600, with new patient forms and resources available to download. There is no description of the premises themselves, no accreditation, no list of languages and no photographs of the facility on the pages that could be retrieved. The site is a Google Sites page carrying a registration date of 2014.
The site says nothing at all about what any treatment costs.
