The Astoria, Queens office of Dr Leon Reyfman's Stem Cell Therapy NYC practice, offering bone marrow and fat-derived cell injections and platelet rich plasma.
This entry covers the Astoria office in Queens of Stem Cell Therapy NYC, a four-site New York practice led by Dr Leon Reyfman. The site gives the address as 23-25 31st Street, Suite 400, Astoria, New York 11105, with telephone (718) 459-9999. The practice's other offices are in Brooklyn, the Bronx and Manhattan, and the clinical content on the site is shared across all four rather than written for each location.
The practice's foundation is interventional pain medicine: Dr Reyfman's stated training is in anaesthesiology and pain management. The treatments listed are stem cell therapy, bone marrow stem cell injection, injection of the patient's own fatty tissue, platelet rich plasma (PRP, prepared from a sample of the patient's own blood), shock wave therapy, ozone therapy and laser therapy.
The site describes two sources of cells, both taken from the patient: bone marrow moved from one part of the body into the damaged area, and the patient's own fatty tissue transferred to the problem site. Both are autologous, meaning from the patient's own body, and no donor, umbilical cord or amniotic products are listed. No information is given about how the tissue is processed, concentrated or tested, so that would need to be asked at consultation.
Conditions named include arthritis and joint pain, back injuries, damaged discs and cartilage, meniscus tears, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome and other nerve problems, tendonitis, bursitis and sports injuries. The site says results vary but that many patients notice improvement within a few weeks, with recovery from a few days to a few weeks; these are the practice's own claims and no supporting data is published. A separate regulatory disclosure page addresses the status of the treatments.
The site lists spine, joint and nerve problems alongside sports injuries.
The site states that the cells used come from the patient's own bone marrow or from the patient's own fatty tissue.
One doctor is named for the whole practice, so it is worth asking who would see and treat a patient at this office.
The Astoria office is listed at 23-25 31st Street, Suite 400, Astoria, New York 11105, one of four offices in the practice. The site publishes no opening hours for it, describes no procedure rooms, imaging or recovery facilities, and does not say where bone marrow or fat tissue would be processed. It also does not indicate which procedures are carried out at which of the four addresses.
No prices are published. The site says most insurances are accepted, with a qualifying asterisk, and compares these treatments favourably with the cost of surgery in general terms, but gives no figures and does not confirm whether the injections themselves are covered. A written quotation and a clear statement of insurance cover should be requested.
