"Amazing transformation!"
“I was in a car accident that left me broken in more ways than one. I didn’t understand what to do as far as my post recovery was concerned, so I took the advice of my Attorney, who was just trying to help, and I ended up going through Chiropractic treatments that didn’t help. All of my treatments ended and I was no better than before, so I started doing research about what would help a herniated disc instead of going through surgery to replace the disc. I went to a Doctor I follow named Dr. Axe and he suggested Regenxx was the best option for my injury. After receiving injections in my cervical area and following up with Physical Therapy, I am completely better!! Dr. Papas is amazing and took the time to show he really cares. He went over and beyond. Everyone at Regenxx is kind, caring, and extremely helpful!”
Dr. Papas and his staff have helped me tremendously after a car accident. I had several areas of pain and have had stem cell and PRP and I’ve gotten so much relief! Everyone in the Tampa office is super helpful and friendly! I would highly recommend Dr. Papas as an alternative to surgery.read more

Thank you Dr. Papas! After I tried alternative methods elsewhere without long-term success I found Regenexx through the recommendation of a tennis friend. He had previously went through ankle treatment with Regenexx and successfully recovered as well. After 1 PRP injection treatment and PT afterwards, I was able to recover from my wrist injury and compete professionally in racquet sports again pain free. The knowledge and professional care from Dr Ignatios Papas and his team was outstanding so I highly recommend.read more

I tore my supraspinatus tendon playing golf and tried everything, PT, acupuncture, massage for 6 months with no improvement and very limited movement. Was heading for ortho surgical repair option when my trainer recommended I get a consultation with Dr Papas since he had seen success with this natural, less invasive treatment that only required a couple of months recovery rather than a year. I wanted to get back to golf and swimming but was skeptical. I just went back for my 6 week post treatment check up and the tear was gone, my mobility has increased almost completely back to normal with ongoing PT and happy to say I can finally get back to basic things like doing up my bra, shaving my legs and putting my hair up! Would definitely recommend and in the end the cost was less than it would be with insurance deductibles on ‘standard’ surgical options. Not to mention much faster recovery. PT also affirmed that they had seen a lot of success with this type of procedure (PRP) in patients for neck, hip, knee and ankle injuries as well. Only downside in my particular case what’s that the injection was more painful than expected.read more

I recently had a situation where I had been driving several miles and when I reached my location, I could barely walk after getting out of the car. This was sudden and likely a result of old injuries to my low back. I had not experienced this particular issue before. It was difficult to walk, and the pain was rather intense. Doctor Papas recommend and performed a platelet procedure on my low back and the results are amazing! I had relief almost immediately and a week later I’m feeling better than ever! Any apprehension I had about having injections quickly faded away when the medical team walked me through the process and kept me well informed through the procedure. I felt completely at ease with their professionalism and level of care. For anyone who is experiencing pain I would recommend this. The procedure was quick and painless and the results have been better than I could have imagined. Thank you doctor Papas for providing this service and for talking my pain away. I’m so grateful to you and the staff.read more

I am 72 years old and an active tennis player. The cumulative effect of years of activity caused a degeneration of a tendon in my left hip. My orthopedic doctor's only solution was therapy and yoga. Regenexx Dr Papas diagnosed the problem and suggested stem cell therapy. It has been six weeks since my procedure and the results are noticeable. Improved mobility, sustained play without pain, and recovery time have all shown improvement. The improvement and the process are consistent with my expectations and what is described in the Regenexx literature. I anticipate continued improvement in the weeks and months ahead.read more

I researched this type of procedure for two years before deciding to go ahead with it. The first time, I made a mistake and as a result my pain remained. This 2nd time, I chose Regenexx because they are the real deal.I had a previous procedure done in Longwood, FL (where I live), and it was a complete sham in comparison. It literally cost me over $5,000 more than Regenexx, who did a much more thorough and indepth consultation. The procedure versus the Longwood practice I went to was as different as night and day. At Regenexx, it felt so professional, friendly, clean, sterile.At the Longwood location, I was asked to lay down on a what looks like a chiropractic table, no one wore gloves, and there was no M.D. involved. A nurse practitioner injected me with 6 shots. I was done in 7 minutes and sent out the door. At Regenexx, the prep and procedure lasted approx two hours. I was well looked after and they walked/talked me through every step of the PRP procedure. Dr. Papas, who is an extraordinary doctor, plus 3 others were present to assist. All wore surgical gloves, masks and gowns.I had the procedure done 9/26/19, and today is 10/5/19. I can honestly say my low back is feeling so much better already. I wasn't even sure that was possible, but each morning I awake, my back pain has lessened. Quite a few hours during the day, I don't experience any pain any longer. Amazing!!! I drove two hours each way to have them do my low back procedure, and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend Regenexx and especially Dr. Papas!!read more

I found Dr. Papas and Regenexx through a family friend after 4+ months of severe back pain. I am in my early 40s and am active and healthy so to have debilitating back pain was a true crutch to my lifestyle. I saw chiropractors, had massages, went to Physical Therapy you name it and nothing was improving. A family friend found a lot of relief from the Regenexx group so I figured I would try it. After a thorough consult with Dr. Papas in the St. Petersburg office it was clear that the PRP (platelet rich plasma) procedure would truly solve my issue. We scheduled it for a month from the consult and the staff walked me through the entire procedure prior to my appointment. The actual procedure start to finish was maybe an hour. I went home and rested that afternoon with very minimal pain. The next day I was able to complete tasks regularly and after 4 weeks I saw extreme improvement. I am now 8 weeks post-procedure and I have ZERO pain. I am slowly easing back into my workout routine and feel great! Thank you to Dr. Papas and his staff for everything. I am so grateful to have my physical health back and could not recommend Regenexx to more people. I feel like a walking testimonial- I am telling everyone about my success story!read more

So thankful I found Regenexx and Dr Papas. I was diagnosed with a bulged and torn L5 disk. Was told by another doctor that a disk replacement was my best option. I found regenexx and had a consult. Two weeks later I had the platelet procedure done. Had it done on a thursday and was back at work on Monday. Now 6 weeks later and feel great. I am back to working out and cycling.

I also went to three other doctors before who clearly talk out of their a s s and it’s obvious because they could not explain in detail. He knows his stuff and I trust him completely. He is a regenerative medicine doctor- not an orthopedic pretending to deliver stem cells. 100% recommend him. I’m excited for the future.read more

The surgery wasn’t too bad and my wrist healed up pretty quickly in about 3 weeks. I had doctor Papas and he was such a pleasure to talk with, he humored me on all of my medical questions and did an amazing job explaining everything.

I had a great experience with Dr Papas and the PRP treatment done on my knee, hip and shoulder (old sports injuries, tears on all of these areas).Dr Papas really listens and meets you were you are. I made him aware of the efforts and programs I was engaging in to help rehab from my injuries. I greatly appreciate that he partners with you to identify what level of support you need and doesn't just treat you like a statistics. I am in my 30s and weight 240, I had PRP done in May 2021.Now to the meat of it, I have/had lateral and medial miniscus tears on my left knee and was looking to having it scoped (I had already scoped my other knee which now has arthiritis). I also had labral tear and some damage to rotator cuff on my shoulder and hip labral tears. I did a lot of research and thought I give Regenexx a shot. I had PRP done previously by a knee surgeon but this was a completely different experience and it is all in the methodology.I was in constant pain on all three areas and had just learned to live with it. I wasn't expecting drastic response was just looking for some pain relieve. To my surprise my hip pain literally went away on day 1, like gone. Something that, IR, Red light therapy, cold lazer, PT, supplements had no impact on.As for my shoulder, this go me scared as I was in pain and had the shoulder popping for the first 4 to 6 weeks post procedure. Dr Papas warned me that this would happen but because of how good my knee and hip felt I was concerned that something had gone wrong. Week 7 all of the popping went away and pain was reduced by 70 to 80 percent.I don't usually give reviews but this has truly been life changing for, I was literally facing knee replacement surgery(yes you read that right). I had been wearing compression knee braces practically 24 hours a day 7 days a week for years and could not lay my leg straight without numbness and pain.I have not worn knee braces since I had the procedure done! I find it weird to walk around in shorts and to be able to see my knees rather than knee braces.I grew up playing sports and lifting, now that I am a parent I feared that I would not be able to coach and do what brought me so much joy with my kids. I don't feel this way anymore.Thank you, Dr Papasread more

I had a great experience with Dr. Papas and the staff at Regenexx Tampa Bay! I sustained a hip labral tear and was able to get evaluated by Dr. Papas, and he recommended a PRP injection to heal the area. After the procedure, PT as well as OMT therapy helped me resume normal activities a few months later, and an ultrasound scan reveals the tear has completely healed. That would not have been possible with physical therapy alone, which is all my GP had recommended. I'm convinced that interventional orthopedics like the treatment I had from Regenexx are a far superior solution to the standard care options offered by most doctors. If you are considering surgery or other treatment for an orthopedic injury of some kind, I highly recommend reaching out to Regenexx for a consultation, because they may be able to help you get back to your normal activities faster, with better long term healing and much less pain.read more

As someone who gets extremely nervous in any medical situation, I have truly never felt more comfortable than I did in this office. My appointment included a blood draw in the morning and the procedure in the afternoon. I was extremely nervous upon arrival for the blood draw and Anna took the time to talk me through everything. She gave me options on how we could do things and kept me distracted the whole time. She let me ask a ton of questions about my upcoming procedure and I was extremely pleased when I found out she would be there too. Once I returned for the procedure, I spoke with Dr Papas who also communicated with me throughout the entire process and made me feel as comfortable as possible in such a vulnerable position. He continuously asked how I was doing and updated me as to how much more we had left. Throughout the whole procedure Anna was there, being just as amazing and supportive. I had picked Regenexx for my procedure due to their extremely thorough consultation and beautiful offices. I dealt with Kimberly for the booking and payment process. She was very helpful and explained all of my options at length. Thank you so, so much to everyone at Regenexx! I cannot recommend them enough.read more

I consider Dr. Papas, his team and Regenexx the gold standard in orthobiologics. Within a 3-year period, I’ve had multiple areas treated with stem cells, PRP, Platelet Lysate (for my back) and most recently my own fat.I started seeing Dr. Papas for OMT. In the process we discussed some pain I was still having with my hamstring, wrist and hip which was waking me at night. He suggested a fat injection for my wrist and hamstring and PRP for my hip. Ultrasound showed my hamstring had considerable wear. I had a 60 to 70 percent tear in my hamstring before having stem cells with Regenexx in 2018. OMT was for a rib sliding and irritating a nerve causing a sharp pain in my chest. Dr. Papas is such a skilled OMT provider and with adjustments and PRP injected where the rib connects to my spine to strengthen it, the sharp pain has eased off tremendously. I’m now over 6 weeks post procedures and 90% pain free!! No more waking at night from hip pain!It’s very comforting to know that I can have future problems treated by Dr. Papas. He’s earned my trust and he and his team make you feel as comfortable as possible before and during your procedure. He’s very knowledgeable and professional with a caring and calm approach. Takes time to answer all questions and explain procedures. I urge anyone considering orthopedic surgery or dealing with joint pain to see Dr. Papas first. It may not be covered by insurance, but I consider it an investment in my health both physically and mentally. And at 71, I want to stay as active as I can. I’m back to enjoying activities I thought I’d have to give up. I had just about given up on my arthritic wrist thinking I would need surgery and now I’m back to including full body pushups in my work outs. Thank you so much, Dr. Papas and team!!read more

I came to Regenexx and meant with Dr. Papas in early March 2021. I suffered a spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma 10-30-2019. I had been told my current state of pain and inability to do everyday life was probably my best prognosis. Dr. Papas did the most thorough and informative exam I had had since my life changing event. He suggested Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment as a possible option to help me. He was very up front with me, stating My situation was a little unique.My first treatment was March 16th and I felt gradual improvement. By May I was walking with less pain and able to do more upright activities which I felt was about 70% improvement. I had a second treatment last week. I am looking forward to seeing how much farther my usefulness of my neck and mid back will improve.Thank you Dr. Papas and your team at Regenexx, Tampa Bay.Sheryl Runionread more
