  • How to know which Regenerative Medicine clinics to avoid

    How to know which Regenerative Medicine clinics to avoid

    Patients, get at least two opinions from different clinics before spending money on a cash pay regenerative medicine procedure. We encourage that at Texas Orthobiologics....we don't try to pressure patients into a same day procedure with a low down payment. If you have felt pressured to purchase a months long "package" with "easy financing" and didn't have a physical exam or even imaging.....that clinic's opinion is probably worthless.
    There are now many excellent clinicians and clinics in this field it is not too hard to find out who and where they are.
    Most of us do not have celebrity spokespeople!!!

  • Does PRP work for hand pain and wrist pain? Carpal Tunnel? De Quervain's?  Yes!

    Does PRP work for hand pain and wrist pain? Carpal Tunnel? De Quervain's? Yes!

    Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a regenerative medicine or orthobiologic injection that is made from a patient's own blood in the office.

    There is a lot of ongoing research to determine what conditions PRP works best for and also to determine the best dose of this biologic "drug".

    The good news is that we have enough research published to use PRP to help patients with many hand and wrist conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome and De Quervain's tenosynovitis.  Previously, the main non surgical injection for these conditions was a steroid shot....which worked sometimes but also had other effects on the soft tissues that we would rather avoid!  All of these injections are done in the office under ultrasound guidance so we can precisely place the injection.

  • Why do patient reviews matter?

    Why do patient reviews matter?

    15-20 years ago most new patients came from other clinician referrals and other patient referrals.

    With the rise of the internet and doctor review sites.....along with the increasing cost of insurance and rising deductibles...things have been changing over the last 15 years.
    Now,  most common referral source listed by our new patients at Texas Orthobiologics is the insurance company website (searching for local in network docs) and then online patient review sites (to see who is highly ranked) like doctor.com, healthgrades.com, vitals.com, usnews.com, trustpilot.com, google.com, and even yelp(ugh!).
    So, like it or not, we have to care about reviews if we want to take care of patients..'

  • Using Ultrasound Instead Of MRI To Diagnose Meniscal Tears In The Office!

    Using Ultrasound Instead Of MRI To Diagnose Meniscal Tears In The Office!

    This brief presentation shows how we can use ultrasound in the office to diagnose a meniscus tear and avoid the time and expense of a MRI scan. It is faster and cheaper for the patient and allows us to have a diagnosis and treatment plan at the very 1st office visit! No fighting with insurance companies for pre-authorization either! Not every tear and not all knee pathology can be seen with ultrasound so there is still a need for MRI scans....but when we can use ultrasound....everybody loves it!

  • Exosomes are still currently illegal to use in humans in the USA!

    Exosomes are still currently illegal to use in humans in the USA!

    ...still haven't gotten then message about exosomes being an unapproved drug in the USA yet?

    Patients, avoid any clinic or doctor who tells you they can legally do exosome treatments in the USA right now.  Unless they are part of a FDA approved study ....odds are they are not telling you the truth....ask for their FDA documentation and drug approval letter(s).

    Doctors, if you are in a gambling mood and look good in an orange prison jumpsuit....and are looking to stock your shelves....here is one outfit STILL selling exosomes as recently as yesterday.

  • Can You Inject Fat Into A Knee To Make Arthritis Symptoms Better For A Year?  Yes!

    Can You Inject Fat Into A Knee To Make Arthritis Symptoms Better For A Year? Yes!

    *MFAT (microfat) injection for knee osteoarthritis? Yes....the clinical evidence is only growing!*

    The best part?  This is a way to use adipose tissue in the USA that is compliant with the FDA regulations.
    This RCT published 9/5/2024 in Arthroscopy divided knee osteoarthritis patients into a MFAT group, a steroid group, and a normal saline group.

    75 patients total followed for one year. The MFAT group was significantly better than the other groups at every time point and out to one year.

    The steroid group had max benefit at 2 weeks which quickly returned to baseline.

    The two most prominent companies with adipose solutions in the USA right now are Lipogems and JointTechLabs.
