Why patients choose us

Why choose WheelHouse for regenerative medicine

Start with the cause

Pain has many sources. We assess first, so treatment fits the problem.

Practical treatments

Ask about in-office joint injections and a plan that includes movement, strength and pain control.

No hype

Many stem cell and exosome products sold to the public are not FDA-approved. We will tell you plainly.

How it works

How we approach joint and tissue pain

Every plan is personal.

  3. Treatment plan

    Exercise, medicines, injections or referral, depending on what fits.

What to know about regenerative treatments

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) has some evidence for certain conditions, such as knee osteoarthritis and some tendon problems, but results vary. Stem cell and exosome products marketed to the public are, with very few exceptions, not FDA-approved, and the FDA has warned about them. We follow the evidence and the law, and we will help you weigh your options.

What it costs

Clear prices, before you start

Start with a consultation. Pay per visit from $85, or use a visit included in your membership. If you go ahead with treatment, we give you the full price first, including any medicine, infusion or product, so there are never surprise bills.

We do not bill insurance. Many patients pay with an HSA or FSA card.
