Regenexx-affiliated clinic in Chevy Chase, Maryland with four physicians offering bone marrow concentrate, platelet-rich plasma and prolotherapy injections.
StemCell ARTS is a private clinic in Chevy Chase, Maryland, and an affiliate of the Regenexx network, a national group of practices that use shared, standardised protocols for preparing and injecting orthobiologic products. It treats patients directly and is not a research institute. The clinic's stated purpose is to offer injection-based alternatives to orthopaedic surgery for joint, spine and soft tissue problems.
Treatments use material taken from the patient's own body. Bone marrow concentrate is prepared from marrow drawn from the patient, usually from the pelvis. Platelet-rich plasma is concentrated from a blood sample. The clinic also offers prolotherapy, which uses an irritant solution rather than cells. Injections are placed using ultrasound and fluoroscopy (live X-ray) guidance. There is no mention of umbilical cord, amniotic or other donor-derived products.
Compared with many clinics in this field, the site is unusually clear about who does the work: four physicians are named with their board certifications. The clinic covers a wide list of specific structural diagnoses, from knee ligament and meniscus tears to disc problems and rotator cuff tears. No year of establishment, languages beyond English, or international patient service is stated, and no prices are published.
The clinic lists many specific structural diagnoses. Some, such as complete ligament tears, are not generally treatable by injection, so ask what the published evidence shows for your exact diagnosis and imaging findings.
All biological material comes from the patient. No donor, umbilical cord or amniotic products are advertised.
The clinic is at 5550 Friendship Blvd, Suite 450, Chevy Chase, MD 20815, telephone 301-895-7962. Published hours are 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday, closed at weekends. The practice also uses the name StemCell ARTS and the website stemcellarts.com. No year of establishment or languages are stated.
No prices or consultation fees are published on the page. Bone marrow concentrate and platelet-rich plasma injections are generally not covered by insurance in the United States, and Regenexx procedures are typically priced per joint, so ask for a written quotation covering imaging, the procedure and any follow-up injections.
