Stem cell therapy
Consults with a board-certified orthopedic surgeon on cell-based treatment for joint and tendon problems.
THIS NOTICE MUST BE PROVIDED TO YOU UNDER FLORIDA LAW.
This physician performs one or more stem cell therapies that have not yet been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. You are encouraged to consult with your primary care provider before undergoing any stem cell therapy.
What Florida law now allows
Since July 2025, Florida law lets physicians offer certain stem cell therapies for orthopedic conditions, wound care and pain management. The law sets rules on where the cells come from, what you must be told, and the consent you sign.
How a consult works
- We look at your imaging first. X-rays or MRI, your history, and what you have already tried.
- We explain every option. That includes PRP, joint preservation and surgery, alongside any cell-based treatment.
- We say what is known and what is not. Research on stem cell therapy for joints is still developing. Some studies show benefit and others do not.
- You decide with the facts. Costs, risks and alternatives are covered before you choose. Florida law requires a signed consent form before any treatment.
What to know before you decide
- Results vary and are not guaranteed.
- Insurance plans generally do not cover them. We go over the cost before you decide.
- You are encouraged to talk with your primary care provider first.
