Springfield, Illinois orthopaedic group offering platelet-rich plasma and bone marrow concentrate injections alongside conventional orthopaedic care.
Orthopedic Center of Illinois is an orthopaedic group practice based in Springfield, in central Illinois. It treats patients directly across the usual range of bone and joint problems and has added biological injection treatments, which it groups under the heading orthobiologics.
Two biological treatments are described. Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, is made by spinning a sample of the patient's own blood to concentrate the platelets before injecting it. Bone marrow aspirate concentrate, or BMAC, involves drawing marrow from the patient's pelvis under local anaesthetic and concentrating it before injection. Both use the patient's own tissue; no donor, umbilical cord or amniotic products are described.
The practice positions these injections as a middle option between conservative care such as physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medicine and steroid injections on one hand, and surgery on the other. The conditions it lists are specific and orthopaedic - shoulder, knee, hip and elbow problems and mild arthritis - which is a narrower and more conventional scope than many cash-pay regenerative clinics advertise. No prices are published.
Both preparations are taken from the patient's own body; no donor tissue products are described.
The practice is based in Springfield, Illinois; independent listings give an address at 1301 South Koke Mill Road, Springfield. Telephone 217-547-9100. The site also has a locations page covering more than one office. Opening hours, the year the practice was established, languages spoken and any international patient service are not stated on the regenerative therapy page.
No prices are published for the injection treatments. Platelet and bone marrow injections are frequently not covered by insurance in the United States even when the rest of an orthopaedic visit is, so confirm the cost and what insurance will pay before proceeding.
