The Difference
Treatments at other Clinics :
"Patch up" treatments like, addicting pain medications, Steroid injection, surgery (many side effects including weight gain & increased blood sugar, damage to kidneys, heart, stroke & gastric ulcer from NSAIDs.)
May not know how to use ultrasound during the injections which is very critical in ensuring a safe & accurate injection. May use xray with unnecessary radiation for injections instead of ultrasound.
PRP & Sonic wave (ESWT) not used to enhance the effects of Stem Cells.
May not offer option of different bone stem cell types. (only offer drilling bones or low quality umbilical stem cells.)
May use poorly trained non-physician assistants to evaluate & perform injections.
Not FDA compliant.
Treatments at Our Clinic :
Treating the root cause of the problem by regenerating and repairing the damaged regions. Good safety profile with body products from own body.
Precision ultrasound guided injection to joints without any radiation to ensure safe delivery of stem cells & PRP to the correct location. (Shown to increase positive results by 20-40% vs. without ultrasound)
Other modalities like PRP & Sonic Wave use to focus on the whole joint and treating different parts of it instead of just treating one out of several diseased structures in the joint.
Several types of stem cell including Adipose (fat), bone marrow and umbilical cord derived options available.
Needle Free Air-Jet Pain pre Injections option.
We perform our procedures at a private Room by Medical Office Towers* in Los Angeles, with easy access to many Hospitals, Ranked in the top 10 USA Hospitals.
Our physician is a recipient of the prestigious UCLA Vice Provost Prize, the Motif Award sponsored by Walt Disney, and Altamed PACE Clinical Quality Award.

Review & Testimonials/Case Examples
Introduction About the Topic
Current Treatment at Other Clinics
The current treatment methods for disc degeneration and other degenerative diseases have their drawbacks: opioids have a number of side effects, and are a bit dangerous. Surgery alters the natural structure of the body (and sometimes may be unsuccessful). Injections on its own is quite beneficial to many patients, but have little to no effect at the cellular level nor do they encourage self-repair.
Stem cells however reduce the inflammation and pain that are typical of these conditions. They also work to regenerate and repair the damaged regions 2. Current research on the effect of stem cells in pain management has shown positive results.
We are different from many other clinics who offer stem cell or PRP. Other clinics may not use ultrasound during the injections which is very critical in ensuring a safe & accurate injection. They may also not offer option of bone marrow derived stem cell, Adipose derived stem cell & umbilical cord stem cell. They in effect expose patients to more invasive treatments like drilling bones without offering other easier options. They also may use xray with unnecessary radiation for injections that can be easily avoided in most cases by using ultrasound. Furthermore, they may not have proper knowledge of how PRP & Sonic wave (ESWT) can enhance the effects of Stem Cells. These other modalities are used by us to focus on the whole joint and treating different parts of it instead of just treating one out of several diseased structures in the joint.
Safe Non Surgical Option
We use a combination of newest cutting edge technology in regenerative medicine to stimulate body’s own repair ability to reverse aging and damage. We use a careful combination of Stem Cells, PRP and Sonic Waves (ESWT) as part of treatment plan designed by the doctor to treat the body. These are safe investigational treatments that have shown very promising & safe results in thousands of treatments over the 10-20 years in Europe and USA. They don’t involve using any medications or drugs.
What Does ESWT, PRP & Stem Cell Therapy Do?
The researchers believe that the therapy works by:
Releasing cytokines into the body to prevent further damage to cartilage and reduce pain and inflammation.
Preventing inflammation that can make osteoarthritis worse.
Creating healthy new cartilage tissues.
Many patients experience improvements in the treated area and other areas, like in a Mayo Clinic study where patients benefited in both knees after experiencing injections in only one.
What makes our facility special?
At our Los Angeles facility, we have invented modern approaches to orthopedic care. Our approach to treatment is second to none. The harvesting process does not involve any form of drilling, and the stem cells are purified and tested for quality before injection. We also employ ultrasound to help in the precise placement of high dose stem cells at the required site. These cells will then perform their duty, promoting the formation of new tissues. Please note that this process only occurs if the cells have been injected to the exact site. We are experts in this and has seen positive outcome with our treatments. Our licensed physicians have undergone intense training running into thousands of hours, and so, you can be sure that you are in safe hands.

Our doctor is one of the few doctors in USA & Los Angeles offering the new technology of needle free injection. We have introduced our needle free injector for a more comfortable and painless experience.
