A Bogota clinic of eight years standing using laboratory-grown umbilical cord stem cells, with English-speaking support and a United States contact line.
Stemwell is a regenerative medicine clinic in Bogota, Colombia, which states it has been operating for eight years. Its administrative headquarters is listed in McLean, Virginia in the United States, while treatment takes place in Colombia.
The treatment described is stem cell therapy using cells taken from donated umbilical cord tissue and multiplied in a laboratory before use. The clinic states plainly that it does not use cells taken from embryos, and describes its sourcing as ethical. It says it works within the regulatory framework of INVIMA, Colombia's national medicines and food regulator. Cells are given either by drip into a vein or by injection into the affected area.
Patients are assessed for eligibility first, and free consultations with a health advocate and a physician are offered before any commitment. The clinic states it has treated thousands of joint injuries; that figure is self-published and has not been independently verified. No doctor is named anywhere on the site, and no prices are given.
The list spans joint problems, nerve disease, lung disease and diabetes. Stem cell treatment is not an established therapy for most of these, so ask what published evidence supports its use in your own case.
No doctor is named on the website and no qualifications are listed, although consultations with a physician are offered.
