Patient Testimonials

My stem cell procedure was performed in April 2023 at the St. Petersburg office by Dr. Mastaw, a former Naval orthopedic surgeon.  As a medical doctor myself I knew what I wanted but having never tried stem cells for my Stage IV hip arthritis I didn’t know what to expect. Two Orthopedists I had previously seen said, “total hip replacement was the only solution.” This was unacceptable so I sought alternative medicine and looked into stem cells. Becky Palmer and the medical staff at the St. Petersburg facility exceeded all professional standards, by studying my MRI’s,  scheduling the procedure, and then performing the hip stem cell placement in about a 45 minute procedure where I was awake and aware the entire time. The results? Spectacular in a one word review. Within several days the excruciating pain has lessened. At first, I thought it may be just the results of the anesthetic used. But after a weeks time the pain had decreased to such an extent that the stem cells must have...

One year since I got stem cells in the left hip. Still totally pain free. I looked at a hip replacement 2 yrs ago and may have gone that way if not for finding Stemedix. Diffinetly the right decision going with the stem cells. I am 80 yrs old and back on my dirt bike. Prior to the stem cell insertion the pain had gotten so bad I was not able to ride. My ortho doctor advised me at the time to go with a hip replacement but recommended I stay off of my dirt bike since the potential of a broken hip due to impact was higher with the hip replacement.

AMAZING!!!!  Just recieved my first stem cell treatment last week and it's the absolute best decision I've made regarding my health. The first weeknwas rough as was described by the staff due to receiving the treatment but after the side effects subsided I feel better than I've felt in a long time. My vision is even improving and I'm not having to wear my glasses nearly as much. After having visited multiple doctors and being on numerous Rx's for years at exorbitant costs I wish I would have done this so much sooner. I can honestly tell you this. This treatment and this facility is a God send for me and my family. I don't know how long this will last but so far it has been worth single penny. My sincerest thanks appreciation and admiration for Sarah, Fred,  and Katie for their efforts knowledge and how they treated me and my family. May God bless you all!  I highly highly recommend them!  FYI we drove from NC to their facility and were well taken care of from st...

Believing that I probably had a medial miniscus tear in my left knee, my Active Release Technique (ART - a physical therapy performed while soft tissue is put through a normal range of motion) medical provider recommended I obtain a MRI to confirm. Confirmed by MRI, my orthopedic surgeon, given the lack of arthritis in my knees, recommended I quit running and switch to another form of exercise, since continuing to run with or without surgery would result in the development of arthritis in my left knee. Instead, I sought the umbilical cord stem cell therapy recommended by a fellow runner. Hence, I contacted Stemedix and explained my history and present condition to Sarah, one of their patient care specialists, including my desire to also receive help with recovering from multiple concussions. I was told that stem cell therapy would likely result in healing of the tear and concussions, so I received and signed medical release documents. Stemedix physicians reviewed the Xrays and MRIs a...

 I have just passed my 3 month mark of my infusion of Stem Cells for my COPD.  What a difference it has made in my life already and the best is yet to come.  I am still using my Trelegy like before the infusion, but have not had to use any Albuterol during the day as I did prior.  I can now already play golf without being winded. Prior to the infusion I used to play and get out of breath and use Albuterol 2-3 times.  In the past month, due to wet conditions I even played "cart paths only" which I could not even think of doing before.  To give you a better idea, I went to Lowes yesterday and picked up 12 bags of Pine Bark Mulch for my beds around the house.  I told my wife I would just put 6 out yesterday and 6 today.  I put all twelve out, trimmed and edged my lawn and cut the grass on my riding mower and then blew off the debris without taking a break.  I have 2 Pulmonary doctors, one from the Veterans Administration, and a private doctor at...

 My name is Mike Rymanowski and I am 70 years old. I live in upstate NY just outside of Albany, NY and I was involved in a house grease fire on 10/30/1977. I was removed from the house not breathing and suffered major damage to my lungs. (Chronic Bronchitis, RADS/Reactive Airways Dysfunction Syndrome and Non CF Bronchiectasis) In June of 1997 there was a fire at an unmanned chemical warehouse (1 1/2 blocks from our home) on a Sunday night which released a massive chlorine gas cloud along with other chemicals. Three sides of the warehouse were evacuated unfortunately the direction toward our house was not. A year later we viewed a hazmat training video which determined the chlorine gas cloud was heading directly toward our home approximately 65% of the time of the warehouse fire. Since we were not evacuated we tried to sleep through the night (we had no idea of the severity of the fire or chlorine cloud ) but I just kept coughing. I felt so bad I was finally admitted to the hospital...

Awesome place. Everyone is very nice. Take very good of the patients. Let you know what they are doing. I would recommend them to anyone. I will go back if needed. Since the treatment I'm breathing better.
