A sports medicine practice in North Plainfield, New Jersey, offering bone marrow concentrate and platelet injections with published self-pay prices.
New Jersey Sports Medicine is a sports medicine practice established in 2004 and led by a single physician who is board certified in both family medicine and sports medicine. The site gives the practice address as 598 Somerset Street, North Plainfield, New Jersey — not the Gillette address recorded in this directory, which appears to be out of date and should be confirmed before travelling.
Alongside injection treatment the practice offers a broad musculoskeletal service: fracture management, prolotherapy, botulinum toxin injection, testing for exertional compartment syndrome, custom orthotics, video gait analysis, sports physicals and nutrition advice, with on-site X-ray and diagnostic ultrasound. The physician serves as school doctor to several local schools and sports teams.
On cell source the site is among the clearest in this batch. It states that the material used is bone marrow aspirate concentrate harvested from the patient's pelvis, describes it as containing mesenchymal stem cells, and therefore as autologous (from the patient's own body). Platelet rich plasma (PRP, concentrated from the patient's own blood) may be injected at the same visit, and the practice also offers injectable platelet rich fibrin, described as a scaffold intended to release growth factors over a longer period. The physician promotes his own named method, which he describes as requiring a single needle puncture with minimal processing, and says he teaches the technique to other clinicians. That is the practice's own account of its distinctiveness rather than an independently verified claim.
The practice is also unusually open about cost and coverage. It states that insurance does not cover bone marrow concentrate stem cell therapy, although an initial consultation is covered, and it publishes figures: 2,500 US dollars for a single joint or site and 2,800 dollars for two, with the site elsewhere describing a self-pay range from 750 dollars depending on the procedure. The practice participates with several major insurers for its other services. No outcome or success figures are quoted, and the conditions listed — arthritis of hip, knee, ankle and shoulder, meniscus, rotator cuff and ligament tears, fractures, cartilage defects and chronic pain — are conventional orthopaedic ones.
The practice lists conventional orthopaedic and sports injury problems, organised largely by joint.
