Very compassionate and thorough. I've heard of other places that do it faster than the 3-day procedure, but this method just seems to make more sense.....and uses your own stem cell instead of frozen stem cells from some place else.

Staff were very helpful and made it…
Staff were very helpful and made it easy to apply, send my records and keep me up to date about the procedure. All the staff in Broomfield from the front desk to technicians and Dr Markel were very respectful and gave clear instructions about each step of the process. I appreciated the f/u in the days and weeks after the procedure when I had questions. Overall, a very good experience with a great outcome. Thank you. Melanie Yanke

Back and Ankle (2018)
Back and Ankle
It has been well over a year since I have had my right ankle procedure with Stem Cell provided by De. Adelschiemer. The ankle has been and is as well as can be expected because of the severity and condition before the procedure. As I mentioned in my last update, one Surgeon wanted to replace it stating nothing can be done but a replacement because it is that bad from the arthritis. After the Stem Cell procedure, the ankle started progressing to the point of roughly 90-95% better than prior to Stem Cell. Dr. Adelschiemer was and is well pleased as needless to say I am also. As of now, over a year later, I am walking without help. Is there pain, I would be untruthful to say no pain. If anybody could see the MRI or Xrays of ankle prior to Stem Cell, one would wonder how I could walk on this ankle without help or a cane, but, I am doing just that and very happy to be doing so thanks to the Stem Cell Procedure.
About my back with the PRP procedure -
My back also was one of the worst. Arthritis has been in all parts of my body. As mentioned in my last update, with bilateral knee replacement because of Arthritis- bilateral shoulder replacement because of Arthritis, a disk in my throat replaced because of Arthritis, a wrist and back operated on because of Arthritis and without going into it, numerous other operations.
Am I satisfied with the Regenexx procedures, absolutely!!! Would I recommend the Stem Procedure and the PRP procedure to anybody? That answer is I have recommended and will recommend it to whoever will listen because I am that convinced that they should be used all the time providing the case by case evaluation. I personally have to say, go for it and watch the difference, that is how satisfied I am with both procedures.

Dr. Fenton at Vermont Regenerative Medicine is the best!
I imagine that all regenexx doctors are experts in their field but I think I have the best of the best in Dr. Fenton at Vermont Regenerative Medicine. He was very knowledgeable in treating my ankle injury he took the time to explain EVERYTHING to me. He is an expert in untrasound diagnosis and has been practicing in the field of Regenerative Medicine for many, many years. I had very good results with the Regenexx procedures and wouldn't hesitate to do them again if needed!

Tremendously successful alternative to invasive surgery
Our family has had three Platelet Rich Plasma injection treatments from our local (Oceanside, CA) Regenexx physician (Dr. Derrington) over the last 3 years. One procedure was for me (hip), and two were for my son (each shoulder) as an alternative to surgery, which was in each case recommended by our respective regular doctors. My doctor wanted to replace my hip, despite the MRI results which indicated minimal arthritis (I am 66 years old) and no other trauma or damage, except for a condition called Transient Osteoporosis, which causes extreme and consistent pain. I suffered with this pain for 12 weeks before the PRP injection with little relief, but one week after the injection was 50% improved, and within 3 weeks 90% recovered. At 6 weeks I was 100% recovered. My son’s injuries were related to baseball injuries and, again, traditional doctors recommended surgery. The PRP injections for him were one year apart, and in both cases he recovered 100% within a few months during the offseason. I’m telling everyone I can to investigate Regenexx procedures before surgery, but am amazed that even though I can cite our successes, people prefer to have surgery and rarely, if ever, pursue information gathering, I suspect because insurance companies won’t pay for these procedures, yet, it’s preferable to undergo a free surgical procedure than to pay a modest fee out-of-pocket for a minimally invasive PRP injection. These procedures worked tremendously well for me and my son. We are so happy we gave this alternative a chance.

They identified the problem and gave me…
They identified the problem and gave me a realistic analysis
I chose the Stem cell as it did not require surgery and the stem cell as best option.
Am I back to 100% no way but 705 to 80% yes. The night time pain is gone.

Save money....go with experienced docs.
When it comes to regenerative medicine there is no one in Colorado, or the country, that has more experience. I have found their services and procedures to be very effective in treating a variety of spine and other orthopedic injuries and am very pleased with the outcomes I’ve had. They have allowed my wife and I to maintain a high level of recreational activities that we otherwise would not have been able to achieve.

Only Practice I Will Go To!!
Dr. Torrance is brilliant and I will have all my joint issues reviewed and treated by him in the future! He did wonders for my low back and I am confident he and Regenexx will be the answer to healthy joints and painfree longevity!
