Stem Cells or BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate)

This therapy is a novel therapy used for patients with early osteoarthritis of the hip and knee. It's a minimally invasive procedure that allows you to be back on track within a couple of days.

Stem cells are obtained from the iliac crest, through a bone marrow aspiration procedure. The cells are then prepared within 20 minutes and inoculated in the affected joint.

We use these therapies for patients with early arthritis that want to keep being active.
