Local branch of a national franchise chain offering non-surgical platelet and cell-based injections for joint and tendon pain, without surgery or drugs.
QC Kinetix is a national chain of regenerative medicine clinics with more than 100 locations across the United States, of which the Metairie, Louisiana site is one. The business model is non-surgical, drug-free injection treatment for musculoskeletal pain, delivered in an outpatient clinic setting rather than a hospital.
The treatments offered are platelet-rich plasma, made from the patient's blood; plasma protein concentrate, which the company says contains alpha-2-macroglobulin and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein; bone marrow aspirate concentrate taken from the patient's own marrow; and what the site calls cellular therapy. Class IV laser therapy is also listed. The company describes its clinical staff generically as board-certified doctors, physician assistants and nurse practitioners.
Two practical limitations are worth noting. The national website does not name any individual clinician, and it does not publish the street address, phone number or opening hours of the Metairie clinic, saying only that costs depend on the treatment plan and location. Anyone considering this clinic should ask who specifically will assess and treat them, what their qualifications are, exactly what will be injected, and what the total cost is before paying a deposit.
The list covers nearly every joint in the body. Ask what specific diagnosis is being treated in your case and what evidence supports these injections for it.
All named preparations come from the patient's own blood or bone marrow; no donor products are advertised.
No clinician is named for the Metairie clinic or anywhere on the national site.
The Metairie clinic is one of more than 100 QC Kinetix locations nationwide. The national website does not publish the Metairie street address, local phone number or opening hours; the company's general enquiry line is 1-800-490-4725. No founding year, languages spoken or international patient service is stated.
No prices are published. The company states only that cost depends on the treatment plan and location, and points to a payment plans page. These treatments are generally not covered by insurance, so ask for a full written quote for the whole course before paying anything.
