Employee-owned pain management practice in Bangor, Maine offering image-guided platelet-rich plasma and bone marrow derived stem cell injections.
Northeast Pain Management is a pain practice at 1365 Broadway in Bangor, Maine. Its website states that it became an employee-owned company in 2021. The regenerative medicine service sits alongside its wider pain management work.
Two treatments are described. Platelet-rich plasma involves taking a sample of the patient's blood and processing it to concentrate the platelets and growth factors before injecting it. The adult stem cell treatment involves taking bone marrow from the patient's hip bone, processing it, and injecting it into the target area. Both are given under ultrasound or X-ray (fluoroscopy) guidance, which means the needle position is checked with imaging rather than placed by feel.
The practice makes a point that the commercial processing systems used to prepare these injections vary, and that the resulting product differs between them. Two gaps are worth noting: the page does not name any specific condition it treats with these injections, referring only to a joint, tendon or other target area, and it does not name the doctor who performs them. The site does state plainly that most insurers do not currently cover these therapies.
The page names no specific diagnoses, referring only to injections into a joint, tendon or other target area. Ask which condition they propose to treat and what evidence supports the injection for it.
Both preparations are taken from the patient rather than from a donor.
No clinician is named on the regenerative medicine page.
