A large single-speciality spine practice in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, combining clinics, imaging, therapy and its own accredited ambulatory surgery centre.
The Southeastern Spine Institute is a specialist spine practice at 1625 Hospital Drive, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, on the East Cooper Medical Center campus, reachable on (843) 849-1551. The site describes a purpose-built facility of around 65,000 square feet, which makes this one of the larger single-speciality spine operations in the Charleston area.
According to the site, the practice is designed so that assessment, non-surgical treatment, procedures and surgery can all happen under one roof. Named facilities include digital X-ray, fluoroscopy and ultrasound imaging, an in-house laboratory, an in-house pharmacy, a physical therapy centre, nerve conduction studies and electromyography, and six ambulatory surgery and outpatient procedure rooms with overnight capability. The site also lists supply of back braces, bone growth stimulators and nerve stimulation units.
The conditions named are spinal: cervical radiculopathy, cervicalgia (neck pain), degenerative disc disease, facet joint syndrome, lumbar radiculopathy or sciatica, scoliosis, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and back and neck pain generally. The site states that the staff includes spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, sports medicine orthopaedic specialists, non-surgical rehabilitation doctors and pain management specialists, but the pages reviewed do not name them individually.
On cell therapy, the site lists stem cell spine therapy among its services but gives no detail at all about it in the material reviewed — no cell type, no source tissue, no statement of whether cells are autologous (from the patient's own body) or allogeneic (from a donor), and no account of how the product is prepared or what its regulatory status is. An older directory note suggested autologous bone marrow stem cells; the site reviewed does not confirm that. Anyone considering this specific treatment would need to ask for all of those details in writing.
The practice confines itself to conditions of the neck and back.
The site lists stem cell spine therapy as a service but says nothing about what cells are used or where they come from.
The site states that its staff includes spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, sports medicine orthopaedic specialists, non-surgical rehabilitation doctors and pain management specialists, but the pages reviewed do not name individual clinicians.
The practice occupies a purpose-built building of around 65,000 square feet on Hospital Drive in Mount Pleasant, on the East Cooper Medical Center campus east of Charleston. The site describes six ambulatory surgery and outpatient procedure rooms with added overnight capability, on-site imaging including digital X-ray, fluoroscopy and ultrasound, an in-house laboratory and pharmacy, and a physical therapy centre. It displays accreditation marks for the American College of Radiology, the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, and the Board of Certification.
The site does not publish prices for any service, including its stem cell spine therapy, and does not list accepted insurers. Spine surgery and interventional pain procedures at an accredited surgery centre would normally be billed to insurance in the United States, but cell-based injection treatments commonly are not. A prospective patient should ask specifically which of the proposed treatments insurance will cover and request a written estimate for anything it will not.
