For decades, the standard answer for advanced joint wear was "bionic"—replacing human bone and cartilage with metal and plastic. While joint replacements are common, they are also invasive, carry significant surgical risks, and involve lengthy, often painful rehabilitation.
At Scheinberg Orthopedic Group, we are leading a paradigm shift. By leveraging the body’s own regenerative potential through stem cell injections, we have successfully helped the majority of our patients avoid major knee and shoulder replacements entirely.
Our approach centers on Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC). This technique involves a minimally invasive harvest of your own bone marrow—the body’s natural reservoir for powerful regenerative cells.
These aren’t "mystery" cells; they are your body’s primary repair team. Once harvested, the marrow is processed in our specialized, high-tech lab at the Pueblo Surgery Center. Using sophisticated centrifugation, we isolate and concentrate these progenitor cells to create a potent "living" treatment tailored specifically to your anatomy.
True regeneration often requires a multi-faceted approach. To maximize outcomes, Dr. Scheinberg frequently combines stem cell therapy with other biologic boosters:
This combination works to fight chronic inflammation, halt the death of existing cartilage cells (apoptosis), and support the natural repair of damaged tissue.
Because Dr. Scheinberg is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon, these injections are not "simple office shots." They are surgical-grade procedures performed in our accredited center under precision image guidance (fluoroscopy). This ensures that every regenerative cell is delivered with pinpoint accuracy to the exact site of the injury.
The result? A 90-minute outpatient procedure that allows you to return home the same day, bypassing the hospital stays and high-trauma recovery of traditional surgery.
