I have spent 2.5 years trying to get relief from right knee pain, had surgery, other stem cells, prp, acupuncture, PT- seen several other surgeons and Drs - no one really spent the time figuring out what the root cause was. I had edema in the bone - which turns out is very painful and debilitating . Dr Papas spent an hour with me actually really listening to me and reviewing MRI and ultrasound and found the edema right away. He had a plan which in his experience has proven results! The procedure itself was not as bad as I feared and he was amazing ! He’s extremely kind and precise. I’m so very grateful to him . He was amazing !

Dr. Papas did a thorough exam asking questions and listening to my concerns. He is very knowledgeable regarding my type of situation and has given me hope for the future. I definitely recommend his professional care.

Came in with a torn labrum in my left shoulder, the pain was ridiculous. After deciding to try this before a normal surgery (i cant be put under without major health risks) I came in for my second appt. Followed EVERY instruction I was given to the letter from taking the supplements to eating the special diet I was put on.I had my procedure done 10/22/2020. Today was my 90day follow up. I'm in zero pain and the tear in my shoulder is healed. Only thing to show it was even damaged is a small scar on the labrum. It would've been foolish of me not to explore this option to avoid have a surgery that wouldn't have helped me as much. I've now been cleared to start playing billiards again, as well as auto racing.



You owe it to yourself to explore this option BEFORE having any surgery, you won't be sorry!!!



I can't thank Dr.Papas and his fantastic staff enough for helping me through this process.



My wife and I truly appreciate you all!

Dr. Papas is very knowledgeable and professional. He is always concerned about my overall health and does a great job listening to my health concerns.

Excellent! Explained in detail what was going on with my body and in detail the process in which to address my injuries. AWESOME!

I had been having increasing R/L knee pain, in addition to my right knee "locking up." I brought my dvd's with me; Dr. Papas also did his own ultrasound, which I very much appreciated. He explained everything as he did the ultrasound. Diagnosed the issues. Recommended Visco supplementation (Hymovis) in addition to PRP shots. Good outcome. Very pleased. I've had PRP shots in my spine in the past and I'm a fan!

Both of my ankles were a mess from previous sprains and fractures. Here I was in my mid 30s thinking I was going to have issues with swelling and pain the rest of my life. Did NOT want surgeries. Dr. Papas spent more time with me than any other provider had in the past. He provided a clear description of my problem and and clear plan for the blood platelet treatment. The treatment worked exactly as expected. I followed the post-procedure instructions and physical therapy plan. My symptoms are gone and I have more stability in my ankles. It's like they were never injured. I would recommend to anyone Dr. Papas and Regenexx to anyone with joint issues.

very good

Dr Papas is extraordinary. His medical advice and service is on the level of elite in my opinion

Had an issue at the elbow where there had already been surgical intervention for a distal bicep tear. Dr.Papas did a proper diagnosis of the issue. He knew the name of every muscle in the arm by memory. I had been to multiple Orthopedic doctors & was not able to receive a proper diagnosis throughout even with MRIs & Xrays. I got PRP for what is known as Tennis Elbow. I was pain free two weeks post procedure, & would highly recommend Dr. Papas to anyone looking for non-surgical options or for a second opinion. Dr. Papas is one of the smartest doctors I have worked with, & you can tell he is in this field for the right reasons. He is great, Thank you Regenexx Tampa Bay & Dr. Papas you all have a patient for life! Highly Recommend!

Upon arrival to the office, I was greeted with warmth and kindness which was so assuring as I was a bit on the cautious side! All procedures were explained and my questions were answered in terms that I could understand. When procedures were light and non-painful, that was explained. When procedures were going to require pain medication, they were explained as well. There were no surprises,

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!

answers my questions on point, takes time to get to know
me. so far knee feels like we turned it back 5 years. the whole staff is awesome.

Expectations beyond exceeded. Very thorough. Personable and trusting.
Dr. Papas was able pin point and eliminate the source of my Lowback pain. As well as my knee pain post MVA.
He also treated my hips and shoulder !
Not all parts were treated at once. But after having major success with PRP into my lowback. I just knew this was the right place to be and the right thing to do.

Dr. Papas evaluated my hip and recommended PRP injections for it. For the first time in several years I have been able to sleep on my right hip without radiating pain.

I was evaluated and my condition was described in detail. I engaged in one treatment. My results were terrific. I no longer feel discomfort.

Dr. Pappas was wonderful! He and his staff were there to walk me through it every step of the way!I feel so much better!

Very thorough consultation to address all major areas of concerns as well as a very comprehensive approach clearly explained. Provider spent ample time listening to and evaluating in order to come up with best possible treatment plan to ultimately bring relief for my specific areas of chronic pain. Superb knowledge and explanations!

My experience today was great. I received excellent and quality service as usual. Regenexx's care is second to none and I will recommend their services to everyone.

Dr. Papas provided the most thorough exam of my knees I've ever received. The procedures went well and I knew what to expect after everything being explained. PT was also key to my positive results. I'm no longer using Aleve/Ibuprofen on a regular basis and my ability to be active has increased over 80%. Friendly office staff and wonderful nurses too!
