Everyone is professional and knowledgeable at the facility I used. My first procedure (PRP) lasted about 5 months. I then tried stem cell on both knees. It only lasted 3-4 months. I am back to worse symptons than when I started. I feel that the 3mo/6mo/and 1yr checkups are a waist of time as nothing was looked at or anything done except ask how I was feeling. Because of my outcome and the LARGE amount of money I spent to try and have less pain I would not recommend this path of treatment. I am now back to hyaluronic acid shots with better response than the stem cell!! and no cost to me!!

The doctors are fantastic. The treatment is truly miraculous. The clonic could improve their counseling on post treatment rehab. Frequently the written instructions I get are general, and not specific to my injury, and they contradict what the doctor tells me. The worst part of the experience is the billing department. They insist that I pay up front, and I struggle to get the information from them that I need to try to get reimbursed through my insurance company. I called my insurance company, and the company says paying up front and forcing a patient to submit her own bills is a violation of their contract. Now I am fighting to get reconcile what the insurance says I owe, and what Centeno says I owe.

Stem Cell procedure on my knee: The first few months after my procedure, my knee felt great. It has gotten progressively worse. At the 6 month follow up appointment, the doctor said that I needed a "booster shot" for $1,400. However, during the appointment, he didn't even examine or touch my knee. I felt as though all he was concerned about was more money.

The process was super painful and did not completely achieve the desired results

I see some improvement, but definitely not as much as I had hoped. I honestly think diet is the biggest factor with my issues. Not eating inflammatory foods is what truly makes a difference.

This was my second round of PRP injections in my back and hip and the first round for my left shoulder. I had good success with the first round in a reduction of nerve symptoms that had been impacting my sleep. After the second round of injections were done and I had returned to Seattle, the Regenexx office called and told me that they had credited my account for an amount equal to about 20% of the total. I asked why and after some delay and confused messages I learned that they had run out of the concentration of PRP that should have been injected in my back so that one of the main areas where I have a disc bulge was not treated with PRP. I asked to speak to Dr. Centeno to find out the implications of this oversight but he has yet to call me. I am waiting for the six months post-injection to run to see if I have any improvement. The whole situation could have been handled better if I had been told at the time what had happened instead of waiting until after I had returned to Seattle. I would have been willing to change my travel plans to stay an extra day or so to have the area treated. Plus, I would have liked to have had a conversation with Dr. C to find out the implications of not getting the PRP in that area.

I have some improvement with my knees but this is not the full cure I was looking for. I may still need a replacement. I don't have a much pain. Hoping it will keep getting better.

The staff is professional and attentive. It was a good treatment experience, but, ultimately, the results were marginal for stem cell treatments in both knees and one foot, and PRP treatments in my lower back. Osteoarthritis symptoms are as acute as ever in my knees 10 months after treatment. The physician wanted to pursue more treatments, but I’d already spent $12,000 with incremental results.
