We offer state-of-the-art care and design personalized treatment plans with your long-term health in mind.

In that case, the matter is discussed with the patient, and efforts are made to facilitate the best treatment outcomes. The win-win model is key to our success and is applied to all orthopedic involvement and patients regardless of their activity level or age.

Our mastery and access to the most advanced regenerative medicine protocols set us apart. Appreciating the therapy's potential, we harvest platelets and plasma to activate natural recovery. Looking at the complexity and potential risks associated with invasive surgical procedures, it is apparent that PPR is the solution. Harnessing the therapy’s effectiveness, we have managed to assist hundreds of Los Angeles residents in returning to their everyday routine.
We Prioritize Our Patients
Our doctors encourage patients to be proactive about their pain management treatments and engage in their care. While patients’ needs vary depending on their conditions, we aim to ensure all patients achieve an improved quality of life.
We will work closely with you to identify the root cause of the pain and discuss your health goals. During your initial consultation, we will discuss your symptoms, conduct a physical exam, and review your health history. A review of your medical history informs us of your overall health, medications administered, and any disease that can affect your health.
We are relentless in the pursuit of patient improvement and satisfaction. We will listen to your concerns and dedicate as much time to every patient as required.
The physical exam permits us to narrow down the potential causes of the pain. We will look for swellings, redness, mobility issues, and trigger points to develop a hypothesis. We confirm the hypothesis by administering diagnostic imaging tests like:
- MRIs
- CT scans
- Ultrasound
- X-rays
The imaging tests help us visualize your tendons, joints, bones, muscles, ligaments, and cartilages, clearly showing your underlying issue and whether you qualify for plasma-rich platelet therapy.
We will recommend a treatment plan and collaborate with your doctors and other medical experts to ensure the plan suits you. Once the PRR treatment starts, we will monitor your recovery process.
Moreover, our treatment philosophy focuses on an active, hands-on approach while integrating active participation in the recovery process and empowering patients with self-management tips before and after the therapy
