Sarasota age-management and preventive medicine practice founded by Dr Gerald E. Grubbs, offering hormone therapy, stem cell therapy and aesthetic treatments.
RevitaLife Vitality Center of Sarasota is a private medical practice in Sarasota, Florida, founded by Dr Gerald E. Grubbs. It describes itself as an age-management and preventive medicine centre, meaning its focus is on hormone balance, weight, energy and general wellbeing rather than on a single specialty such as orthopaedics.
The practice offers a broad menu. Alongside stem cell therapy it lists bioidentical hormone replacement, intravenous (IV) vitamin therapy, chelation therapy, nutrition and weight management, pain management, detoxification programmes, treatments for sexual function, medical marijuana certification, and aesthetic services such as CoolSculpting, laser hair removal and ThermiVa. Patients are given what the site calls a customised health plan.
The website mentions collecting, storing and using stem cells but does not explain which tissue the cells are taken from, how they are processed, or under what regulatory pathway they are given. Because the practice sits across so many different areas of medicine, it is reasonable to ask exactly what a stem cell treatment there would involve and what evidence supports it for your particular problem.
This is a very wide list covering unrelated areas of medicine. Ask the clinic what published evidence supports cell therapy for your specific condition, and what the alternatives are.
The site refers to stem cells in general terms without naming the tissue source.
The centre is at 600 North Cattlemen Road, Suite 110, Sarasota, Florida 34232-6410, telephone 941-377-4555, fax 941-378-3524. Published opening hours are Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 4:30pm. The website does not state the year the practice was founded, what languages are spoken, or whether it has any service for patients travelling from abroad.
No prices are published. The site mentions that financing options are available but gives no figure for a consultation or for stem cell treatment, so you would need to ask for a written quote.
