Why patients come to us for knees
A surgery-sparing path for the right candidate.
Our goal is simple: keep you in motion. When regenerative treatment can do that, surgery shouldn’t be the default.
Condition · Knee
Arthritis, meniscus tears, ligament strain and tendon pain — addressed with precise, non-surgical regenerative treatment so you can stay active.
The knee is built to absorb a lifetime of load — but cartilage wear, a meniscus tear or stubborn tendon injury can make every step a reminder. Too often the only options offered are cortisone, which can mask the problem, or surgery, which is hard to undo.
RegenCore takes a different path: pinpoint exactly what’s failing inside the knee, then use your own biology and targeted energy therapy to repair it. For the right candidate, that can mean real improvement without ever entering an operating room.
Different problems need different protocols. The first step is an accurate diagnosis.
Cartilage wear and joint inflammation — mild to moderate.
Degenerative and select traumatic tears that don’t require surgery.
Partial tears and chronic instability around the joint.
Jumper’s knee and chronic tendon pain below the kneecap.
We choose and sequence therapies based on your diagnosis — not a one-size protocol.

Testimonials
“I was scheduled for a knee replacement. After PRP and a guided recovery plan at RegenCore, I’m hiking again — no surgery.”
“They actually explained what was wrong inside my knee, then treated exactly that. The difference was real within a couple of months.”
For mild-to-moderate arthritis and many tendon and meniscus problems, yes — it can meaningfully improve pain and function. For bone-on-bone, end-stage arthritis it may not, and we’ll tell you honestly.
We combine a hands-on exam, your history, prior imaging and in-clinic diagnostic ultrasound to identify the specific structure causing your pain before recommending anything.
Most patients are walking comfortably within days and progress through a graded return to activity over several weeks.
