Real Results from PRP & Stem Cell Therapy

"Excellent service, the staff in general and the doctor are very friendly and attentive to the patients. The doctor has a good knowledge of what he is dealing with. I recommend them."

"I am an active 71 years old, and hurt my knee playing tennis. The mri showed my right knee, medial patella was bone on bone. I had to use crutches to get around. Dr. Scheinberg advised me to have PRP and Bone Marrow injection, and it would regenerate the area. I had the injection, I am still shocked with the results. I could go on my walk the very next day and started back to tennis the next month. It's been 7 months, and I can't believe I'm back playing tennis 2-3 days a week. The entire orthopedic group was so helpful from the very beginning. Thank you all so much!"

"I was recommended to Dr. Richard Scheinberg by a friend and her husband who had both been treated by him. I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis at the base of both thumbs. X-rays showed no more cushions – just bone on bone and an incredible amount of pain. Previously two Orthopedic Surgeons only had the option of removing the bottom bones and trying to replace them with tendons taken from my wrists/arms. This surgery just terrifies me. I’ve known a woman in Arizona who had the same surgery and hers did not go well. I might be 73 years old, but I’m not ready to give up my hands. My husband and I first met with Dr. Scheinberg and his great staff and were very impressed with the literature he gave us to read and the fact that they would actually take the Stem Cells from my own body before preparing them and injecting them into my hands. We discussed the pros and cons (including the very real pain I was living with every day) and made the decision to give this procedure, and Dr. Scheinberg, a chance. I talked to Michelle and scheduled the surgery for the end of August. No surgery is without its own pains and recovery. My hands were swollen and bruised from the injections, but healed very easily within a couple of weeks. I wish I could say that I had immediate relief from the pain I had been living with for the last few years, but Dr. Scheinberg had explained to me that the process would take time. What I can tell you is this: Dr. Scheinberg and this procedure have proven to be incredible! Four months later and I am no longer having any of the debilitating pain in my hands, which had been making every day difficult to get through. I can play cards again and have ordered a new Mah Jongg card to return to the game I have played since I was taught it as a young girl. Talk about a new lease on life!"

"I recently underwent surgery on my left shoulder on Aug 26, 2025, which was long overdue. My shoulder had minimal movement and was very painful. Fortunately, I was highly recommended to Dr. Scheinberg by my trusted orthopedic doctor. I can't express enough how smoothly the entire process went. His staff member, Michelle, is a true blessing. She ensured that all pre-operative requirements for the surgery were met and handled everything with care. Importantly, she was always quick to return my calls if any issues arose during the pre-operative stage. A fantastic aspect of Dr. Scheinberg's practice is that the surgery center is located within his office. This arrangement helped me avoid the often painful and frustrating experiences associated with other surgery centers or hospitals, which I had encountered before. Now, my left shoulder has improved movement, and the difference is noticeable. Thank you, Dr. Scheinberg and Michelle, for ensuring that my surgery was flawless."

"I had a shoulder surgery an i was cannot explain how wonderful this experience has been. Dr Scheinberg an his staff are THE BEST. I had no pain an within a few days felt like new. This is the place to go."

"Dr. Scheinberg and his fabulous crew have been my treating physician for many many years and I have nothing but high praises for all of them. All are very knowledgeable, professional and kind. Not only is Dr. Scheinberg a brilliant surgeon his old school bedside manner is a real treat these days. He takes time to explain everything and doesn’t make you feel rushed. A huge thank you for being my advocate over the years with SCIF. Michelle always has a smile to greet you too."

"My experience with Dr.Scheinberg has been phenomenal. I cannot speak highly enough of his treatment and my experience with the stem cell and PRP. He is a wonderful doctor, with clear intentions of his treatments. His nursing staff is also extremely professional, courteous, and friendly. My procedure went well start to finish, and am grateful for my end results along with the positive effect it has had on my life/health. I truly felt comfortable due to the knowledge and professionalism of Dr. Scheinberg and his staff. Outstanding service!!"

"Brought my mom here for arthritis in both of her knees they were really fast with getting her treatment authorized. My mom speaks Spanish and dr.scheinberg made her feel comfortable sense he was able to understand her and speak to her. Overall, would recommend to friends & family."

"I recently saw Dr. Scheinberg for arthritis of my left knee. It was clear he knew what he was doing! He made me feel comfortable with sharing my medical history as well as gave me multiple treatment options for my knee. My pain wasn't going away after trying multiple other treatments that was recommended. Then that is when Doctor Sheinberg recommended stem cell which I continued with and have never felt any better. Although this wasn't covered by my insurance it was worth it! Not sure why he would force anyone to go through with it as stated in another review, I felt heard after trying so many other treatments I can finally live a normal life. He is very humble and an amazing doctor! Another plus being the staff was very kind and fast with getting treatment authorized! I recommend!"

"Dr. Scheinberg and his team are excellent. He communicates clearly and compassionately. The results I got were matched with the expectations I was given. Follow up after surgery was thorough. My pain level has been reduced SIGNIFICANTLY and I am able to so much more walking. I highly recommend him."

"Doctor and staff are amazing explain everything about your procedure. Surgery center on-site makes everything so easy. Was in and out in three hours walked out with no more back pain."

"He is honest about what he can do b4 he will take you as a patient and saved my husband the painful shoulder surgery recommended by the other other docs. had the procedure done with his own stem cell and he is a working general contractor, no problems and it's been 7 years"

"Many Santa Barbara physicians are well-educated and competent. For some, the ability to connect with a patient, give them straight and understandable talk and information doesn’t always come in the same package. The Scheinberg Orthopedic Group, and in particular, Dr Nithani, are the best specialty medical professionals I have run across. Pleasant, engaging, professional and knowledgeable are descriptive of the front office through to all the Doctors. Need some Ortho help? Seriously….go see these people."

"Dr. Scheinberg and his staff are EXCELLENT! I went to Dr. Scheinberg after consulting with several other specialists for chronic degenerative lower back pain. Drugs, major surgery or implants were unacceptable options for me. Dr. Scheinberg reviewed all my records and suggested a stem cell procedure for me. After the injections I had amazing pain relief. After 3 months I continue to have increasing relief. I'm amazed with my continuing improvement. Please consult with Dr. Scheinberg before considering a more invasive procedure. Dr. Scheinberg has greatly improved the quality of my life."

"(Translated by Google) Thank you very much Dr. Scheinberg helped me a lot with my pain. I appreciate your help and patience. Thank you very much for your help also to the girls who work with him. I highly recommend the doctor. (Original) Muchas gracias Dr. Scheinberg me ayudo mucho con mi dolor. Le agradezco su ayuda y paciencia. Muchas gracias por su ayuda tambien a las muchachas que trabajan con el. Recomiendo mucho al doctor."

"Dr. Scheinberg has been my orthopedist for 3-4 years now. His services included a required knee surgery for a torn meniscus and consultations/conservative care regarding other orthopedic related conditions. This is a very professional and first rate office who cares for you individually as their patient. They have always looked after my best interests while I have been Dr. Scheinberg's patient. He is very kind and considerate physician and he always patiently addresses my questions and concerns completely in his usual gentle manner and with candor. Very importantly, Dr. Scheinberg believes that conservative care should be the first option to improve or fully heal one's orthopedic condition and that surgery should be performed only when necessary. The results from Dr. Scheinberg's care and his professional advice have been one of great success, including the very successful outcome of my surgery. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Scheinberg to anyone in need of orthopedic advice and care."

"Very knowledgeable and helpful in making decisions about what to and what not to have done to help improve my back pain problems"

"My mom brought me to Dr Scheinberg Orthopedic group I’m an athlete at Santa Barbara High School I play softball He really helped me with my knee I was able to play again and was really happy about I recommend him a lot!"

"Dr.scheinberg was great I’ve been seeing him for my back and ankle I really recommend for you to see him if your having and problem with you back and ankle or any body part . He’s staff are amazing very friendly and always helpful."

"Dr Scheinberg is one of the most kind and compassionate doctors I have ever been a patient of. He is a good listener (a rare quality), and is very competent. When a patient is in pain, we need a physician who treats us with a confident yet gentle approach. He is truly a gentleman and his staff are all very efficient as well. I highly recommend."

"If you want the best then look no further. The medical skills, surgical ability and integrity of this doctor are of the highest order. My wife and I have been patients of his for many years we are more than satisfied."

"I was referred to Dr. Scheinberg by my attorney for a work related injury. I have been a patient for about a year now, came in with a knee injury. Dr. Scheinberg performance surgery and I'm really satisfied with the outcome. The staff is very professional and quick to answer phones. I highly recommend Dr. Scheinberg for any orthopedic care."

"I am extremely satisfied with my care from Dr. Scheinberg and his staff. I was recommended by a friend who is seeing him for work comp after I had a bad experience with another ortho close by. Dr. Scheinberg took good care of me and my surgery turned out great. I feel so much better. And his staff is very helpful. Awesome Doctor, I truly recommend!"

"Wonderful Doctor and staff."

"I saw Dr. Scheinberg for a knee injury. I called the office the staff was very prompted in getting me in to see him within a few days. When I went for my appointment the staff greeted me with a smile! When I saw Dr. Scheinberg he knew my case right away from reviewing all my medical records before he saw me. Dr. Scheinberg knew right away what my diagnosis was as soon as I went over my history and complaints with him. When I left the room after seeing him I felt so much better because he reassured me he will get me back to my daily activities. The staff stated if I needed anything please don't hesitate to call us (which I have never experienced with any other office). THANK YOU SO MUCH DR. SCHEINBERG & STAFF FOR SUCH GREAT HELP!"

"I cannot say that I love the experience of going to any doctor for any reason, but the staff at Dr. Scheinberg's office-both in person and on the phone, have always treated me with kindness and respect. As for Dr. Scheinberg himself, I know that he is a very busy doctor . . . the waiting room is always full of clients. Dr. Scheinberg is concise and succinct in his manner. I am not offended by this, however, it forces me to describe my pain and disabilities in a clear and specific way. He is attentive to what I say to him, and makes a sincere effort to understand what I am living with everyday, Back and neck pain is tough to treat and I feel like Dr. Scheinberg is more than willing to go the distance in finding me some relief. He is smart and honest and worthy of a good review. A more than decent doctor I will say."

"Thank you for the exceptional care you have provided me. You have made a significant contribution to my quality of life and have ended 3+ years of pain and a search for a physician who specializes in the state-of-the-art treatment. Your kindness & genuine concerns for my well-being are remarkable, especially in our works of conveyor belt medicine! I am honored to know you! I will be forever grateful!"

"Dear Doctor Scheinberg, after my stem cell injection an amazing transformation has taken place. Not only did my hips have immediate relief from the bone on bone pain. Then, there was relief from pain in my wrist where the third shot was introduced. But there was a more systemic transfer to age old injuries from my crushing back pain which I have endured fro more than 10 years, which transferred pain down the back of both legs. Also, there was bone on bone pain at the base of my spine where it connects to the pelvis. As with a true miracle the pain in all these areas were gone in an instant. My normal days were taking qty 4 morphine pain pills a day, to now taking none. Seriously this look me weeks to wrap my head around the fact that the pain was truly gone. Now 2 months later I can still not believe how the pain is gone. This was a true marvel of modern advancement in medical technology. Thank you Dr. Scheinberg for being on the cutting edge of science. I will be forever grateful."

"WOW!!! Major surgery Plus STEM cell therapy. I had the procedure done in the morning Took one pain pill. Felt great by evening. A little swelling the next day. Nearly full range of motion already.! Feels so good, that I have to remember to limit myself until it is fully healed. Sure beats the estimated 6 months of down time required for conventional shoulder surgery. I don’t know why this is not made standard procedure for everyone. Thanks again."

"My experience with Dr. Scheinberg’s group has been outstanding. From the Bakersfield Office to the Santa Barbara’s Office. As a former entrepreneur, I am always aware and observant to other businesses practice’s and/or organizational environments. I never have had a golden opportunity, privelaged, or have been so blessed by being a patient of this particular group. I’m especially amazed with the Santa Barbara Office, The execution of that floor plan which obviously was designed to accommodate an all in one care center, is absolutely phenomenal! The Doctor/staff/patient services were extraordinary! Thank you all so very much."

"the MRI showed that my shoulder had degerated to the point that a complete joint replacement was necessary.” “Dr. Scheinberg gave me another option, a stem cell injection.” “Stem cell injection as a choice to repair my shoulder made sense to me as I am a firm believer in the healthy body’s ability to heal itself.” “I was pain immediately pain free with moderate arm and shoulder mobility.” “I encourage anyone living with pain to make an appointment with Dr. Scheinberg."

"I have been his patient since 2011. Orothoscopic on both knees and left knee replacement. He is very heartfelt to his patients and is straight forward and answers all questions. Have been to a couple other orthopedic dr and finally to Dr Shienburg. Will never go to anyone else. I now live in Carson City Nevada and when I have another knee problem..I will be traveling to see him. Wont.let anyone else touch me. You won't be disappointed"

"A big thank you to doctor scheinberg for asking how I was doing while I was in his office for an appointment for my shoulder, I had pain in my right hip for over 2 years and my family doctor sent me for an X-ray then told me to follow up with physical therapy, I started physical therapy but I hurt so much so I skipped therapy till my next appointment with doctor scheinberg, but when I got there I felt like it wasn’t right for me to talk to him about something he wasn’t treating me for, I think he sense something was going on, he asked how I was doing, boy was it a big relief, I told him my about pain and physical therapy I was doing, he had me lay down and checked my hips he told me to stop physical therapy completely , I also showed him my X-ray from my family doctor , Dr scheinberg talk to me about stem cell and gave me all the leaflets to read about it , so when I got home My son called to see how my appointment went and I told him about stem cell he says mom do it, he says I’ll pay for it, I told him I need to read more about it he says , a couple of my friends had it done and they are in their 30 ‘s it worked really good, so my husband google about stem cell and they decided I should have the stem cell surgery on my hips, I called Dr scheinberg’s office set my appointment, the stem cell surgery was the best decision I’ve made , went in and out in a few hours ,walking with out help in 2 days, that’s because I got a little drowsy , I feel really good and I listen and follow his instructions, bicycling In place While sitting watching TV, I’ve been back to work on my feet 9 hours 6 days a week, very happy with the great job and knowledge of Dr scheinberg, stem cell surgery heals faster and hopefully like me I don’t have a limp , A big thank you to Dr scheinberg , Nicole Naten"

"I have suffered for eight years after an knee replacement from another Orthopedic doctor. After many years of seeing other orthopedic doctors to find relief and help nothing helped me. I did get a vist with Dr. Scheinberg and with my medical problems after my knee replacement he said Stem Cell injection would help me and it would take away all pain and improve my quality of life. I put faith in Dr. Scheinbergs advice and had the stem cell injection. I recommend this procedure for anyone suffering from knee pain. I started walking and feeling fantastic. They used my stem cells and the procedure went very well. I recommend Dr. Scheinberg to anyone looking for pain relief and a doctor who really cares. The office in Santa Barbara is fantastic and worth visiting."

"Bakersfield office, Doctor Scheinberg New right away what was wrong with my knee replacement problem and after 5 1/2 years of orthopedic doctors having no idea. The staff was nice and in ten minutes My life change, thank God."

"I had my shoulder surgery on March 14th the staff was very caring they took very good care of me they still are taking very good care of me so I would highly recommend Pueblo Surgery Center for your surgery he needs. They are a very busy clinic but they do take the time to assist you whatever your needs may be."
