SPORTMED – Puerto Vallarta

The Puerto Vallarta site of SPORTMED, a sports medicine and orthopaedic group combining regenerative injections with surgery and rehabilitation.

Medical Disclaimer: This profile is compiled for informational purposes only and is not medical advice, a clinical endorsement, or a statement that any treatment is proven or approved. Stem cell therapies vary widely in regulatory status and evidence. Consult a qualified physician before pursuing treatment.

Overview

This is the Puerto Vallarta site of SPORTMED, a sports medicine and orthopaedic group that also operates in Guadalajara. The clinic is at Las Jarretaderas, just north of Puerto Vallarta across the state line in Nayarit, close to the airport and the Nuevo Vallarta hotel area.

The practice is a conventional orthopaedic and sports medicine centre that also offers regenerative treatment. Services include arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgery, traumatology, physiotherapy and rehabilitation, and clinical nutrition, alongside stem cell and platelet-rich plasma injections. Injections are described as image-guided for accurate placement.

Cells are mesenchymal stem cells from donated umbilical cord tissue; platelet-rich plasma is prepared from the patient's own blood. The group states FIFA and FIMS certification, which are sports medicine credentials rather than accreditations relating to cell therapy. The doctors listed are shared across both sites, so it is worth confirming which of them practises in Puerto Vallarta and on which days.
