It was previously known as MetroMD Institute of Regenerative Medicine, and the earlier web address, metro-md.com, has since lapsed. The medical director and founder named on the site is Alex Martin, MD.
The site describes a small practice offering a mixture of hormone and age management treatment and regenerative injections. Hormone work makes up much of the list: growth hormone treatment for adults and for children, testosterone, progesterone and oestrogen treatment, and peptides.

The site does not describe which conditions this is used for in any detail, nor does it set out how the cells are processed. Platelet rich plasma (prepared from the patient's own blood) is offered separately.
The site states that the practice was established in 2009. Opening hours are limited, given as Tuesdays and Fridays only, by appointment. No prices are published.
