A multi-physician Michigan regenerative medicine practice offering bone marrow and platelet injections; note that its own website no longer lists the East Lansing office recorded here.
The Michigan Center for Regenerative Medicine is a private practice offering non-surgical injection treatments for joint and spinal problems. This entry is filed against an East Lansing address, and that needs a clear warning: the practice's own website no longer lists an East Lansing office. Its contact page gives two locations only, Rochester Hills (355 Barclay Circle, Suite A) and Grand Rapids (1000 East Paris Avenue SE, Suite 221), and the page whose address still reads as the East Lansing office now displays the Grand Rapids details instead. The telephone number carried in this directory, (248) 216-1008, is the Rochester Hills number. Anyone expecting to be seen in East Lansing should ring before travelling; the office appears to have closed or moved.
The practice describes itself as Michigan's leader in regenerative medicine and lists a long menu of treatments: what it calls orthobiologic spine and joint treatment using the patient's own cells, platelet rich plasma (PRP, prepared from the patient's own blood), prolotherapy, intraosseous injections (into bone rather than only into the joint space), nerve pain stimulation, electromyography (EMG) testing, stem cell banking, functional medicine, and a set of non-orthopaedic services including platelet treatment for hair restoration, regenerative skin care, male erectile and female pelvic floor treatments. It says all injections are placed under ultrasound or fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance, and refers to an in-house laboratory capability provided through a company called Greyledge Technologies. It lists membership of the Interventional Orthobiologics Foundation.
On the cells, the site says adult stem cells are the body's most potent healing cells and that treatment uses the patient's own cells; a case study describes using bone marrow concentrate together with platelet rich plasma. The approach is therefore autologous, meaning the material comes from the patient's own body, and no donor, umbilical cord or amniotic product is named. The site does not set out how much marrow is taken, how it is processed, or how banked cells are stored. Six physicians are named, all described as board certified in regenerative medicine and in interventional joint and spine therapies; the site does not say which body issued those certifications, which is worth asking about.
Some of the site's claims deserve scepticism. It states that three out of every four elective orthopaedic surgeries could have been avoided with a regenerative procedure, calls the procedures medically proven, and points to use of similar technology at major medical centres; it also carries promotional case studies of a strongman and an Olympic hurdler, including a description of full recovery in three months. No supporting data accompanies any of this, and these are the practice's own assertions rather than established fact. To its credit the site also states explicitly that it does not claim or guarantee that any of its treatments is a cure. On cost, it says insurance is accepted, takes card, digital wallet and health savings account payment, and offers discounts for veterans and first responders, but it publishes no prices.
The site lists more than thirty conditions, mostly joint, spine and soft-tissue problems.
The site says treatment uses the patient's own adult stem cells, and a case study on the site describes using bone marrow concentrate alongside platelet rich plasma.
Six physicians are named on the site, all described in the same terms; the site does not say which of them would attend a given office.
No East Lansing premises are described on the practice's own website. Its contact page lists a Rochester Hills office at 355 Barclay Circle, Suite A, which the home page treats as the main address, and a Grand Rapids office at 1000 East Paris Avenue SE, Suite 221, both open 9am to 4.30pm Monday to Friday. The site describes ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance for injections and an in-house laboratory capability provided through Greyledge Technologies, and lists membership of the Interventional Orthobiologics Foundation, but says nothing about the premises themselves. The East Lansing address in this directory could not be verified from the practice's own site and should be checked by telephone.
The site publishes no prices. It states that insurance is accepted and lists payment by major credit card, Apple, Google or Samsung Pay and health savings or flexible spending accounts, with an online payment portal, and it invites veterans and first responders to ask about discounts. It does not say which insurers are accepted or whether the cell and platelet treatments themselves are covered, which for treatments of this kind is often the crucial question.
