A multi-site New Jersey orthopaedic and rehabilitation group, now trading as Performance Ortho, offering bone marrow and fat-derived cell injections under ultrasound guidance.
This listing was recorded as Performance Rehabilitation and Integrated Medicine in Watchung, New Jersey. The practice now trades as Performance Ortho and operates from 459 Watchung Avenue in Watchung together with offices in Branchburg, Somerset and Hillsborough and a surgical centre in Bridgewater. The site states the practice was founded more than twenty years ago and does not use the former name, so anyone searching should expect the newer branding.
It is a broad musculoskeletal group rather than a standalone cell therapy clinic. The site lists orthopaedic and spine surgery alongside what it presents as alternatives to surgery: injections, radiofrequency ablation, physical and occupational therapy, chiropractic care, osteopathic treatment, acupuncture, nerve hydrodissection and named procedures for back pain. On-site X-ray and ultrasound imaging are described.
On cell therapy, the site is clearer than most. It states that the adult stem cells used are obtained directly from the patient's own bone marrow or fat tissue, which makes the treatment autologous (from the patient's own body), that harvesting is done in the office, that the material is processed the same day, and that it is placed into the injured area under ultrasound guidance. Platelet rich plasma (PRP, concentrated from the patient's own blood) is used alongside the cells, and the site uses a gardening comparison to explain the two, describing the cells as seed and the platelets as fertiliser. No donor or umbilical product is mentioned.
The conditions named for cell treatment are rotator cuff and meniscus tears, golfer's and tennis elbow, hip and knee osteoarthritis, plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendon injury. The site describes the harvesting process as painless, which is the practice's own characterisation rather than a statement this directory can verify. No outcome or success figures are quoted. Prices are not published, though the site offers free insurance verification — useful to use, since the surgical and therapy services are likely to be insured while the cell injections commonly are not.
The group covers the full range of spine and joint problems; the cell and platelet treatments are presented for specific tendon, cartilage and arthritic conditions.
The site states that the adult stem cells it uses are harvested in the office from the patient's own bone marrow or fat tissue, processed the same day and injected under ultrasound guidance, with platelet rich plasma used alongside them.
Several clinicians are named; the site gives full credentials for only some of them, so board certifications would need to be checked individually.
The group runs four clinical offices in Somerset County, New Jersey — Watchung, Branchburg, Somerset and Hillsborough — plus a surgical centre in Bridgewater. The Watchung office at 459 Watchung Avenue is the address in this listing. The site describes on-site X-ray and diagnostic ultrasound, in-office harvesting of bone marrow and fat for cell treatment with same-day processing, and ultrasound-guided injection, alongside physical therapy space.
No prices are published. The site offers free insurance verification, which is worth using because the surgical, therapy and interventional services are likely to be billed to insurance while cell and platelet injections in the United States are commonly self-funded. A written quote for the cell treatment should be requested separately.
