Manzano Medical Group's Albuquerque practice, a licensed Regenexx network site offering image-guided injections of the patient's own cells as an alternative to orthopaedic surgery.
This is the Albuquerque location page for Manzano Medical Group, at 505 Elm Street Northeast, presented on the website of Regenexx, a national network of clinics licensed to use its protocols. The page describes the practice as a licensed Regenexx provider offering regenerative injection treatments positioned as alternatives to orthopaedic surgery. Manzano Medical Group maintains its own separate website as well.
The Regenexx approach is interventional orthopaedics: precisely placed injections under imaging guidance rather than open surgery. The page refers to Regenexx injectates but does not spell out the individual procedures or cell preparations on this location page. Across the network these are based on the patient's own tissue - bone marrow concentrate and platelet-based preparations including platelet rich plasma (PRP, prepared from a sample of the patient's own blood) - so this is an autologous (from the patient's own body) model rather than one using donor material. A prospective patient should nonetheless confirm at consultation exactly which preparation is proposed for their problem, since the location page itself does not say.
The body areas and conditions listed are detailed and specifically orthopaedic, which is a point in the page's favour. They cover the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine, including herniated and bulging discs, spinal stenosis, spondylolysis, sacroiliac joint problems, neck pain and pain after spinal surgery; the knee, including anterior cruciate ligament tears, meniscus tears and osteoarthritis; the shoulder, including rotator cuff and labral tears and osteoarthritis; the hip, including osteoarthritis and labral and tendon tears; the elbow, including tennis and golfer's elbow and ulnar collateral ligament injury; the hand and wrist, including triangular fibrocartilage complex tears, carpal tunnel syndrome and thumb osteoarthritis; and the foot and ankle, including ligament and tendon tears and osteoarthritis.
Two physicians are named. John Henry Sloan, MD, is described as a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist with around thirty years in practice, chief executive and president of Manzano Medical Group, and medical director at Lovelace UNM Rehabilitation Hospital. Reza Ehsanian, MD, is described as dual board certified in physiatry and pain medicine with a focus on the cervical, lumbar and thoracic spine, holding a medical degree from Stanford and a doctorate from Oxford. Stated hours are Monday to Friday, eight in the morning to five in the afternoon. No prices, founding year or languages are published, and Regenexx procedures of this kind are typically paid for privately, so cost should be raised early.
The page lists conditions by body area, all of them musculoskeletal.
The page refers to Regenexx injectates without naming the individual preparations; the Regenexx model is based on the patient's own bone marrow and blood rather than donor tissue, but this location page does not state that explicitly.
The page names two physicians at this location.
The practice is at 505 Elm Street Northeast in central Albuquerque, close to the city's main medical district. The page describes an outpatient clinic operating within the Regenexx network, where patients are assessed and image-guided injections are carried out; stated hours are Monday to Friday, eight in the morning until five in the afternoon, closed at weekends. No laboratory or cleanroom is described on the location page, although network procedures involve same-day processing of the patient's own tissue, so it is worth asking where that is done.
The page publishes no prices and says nothing about insurance coverage for the injection procedures. Regenexx network procedures are generally paid for privately in the United States, so cost should be established at the outset with the practice.
