Regenerative Medicine for Knee Pain in Kansas

Learn About KRMC’s Approach to Knee Pain
Knee pain isn't limited to one age group. Some patients develop pain from osteoarthritis and years of wear and tear, while others experience knee problems following a sports injury, meniscus injury or cartilage damage.
In this video, Dr. Pope discusses the types of knee concerns KRMC evaluates and explains why determining the nature and extent of the damage is an important part of deciding whether regenerative medicine may be an appropriate treatment option.
Regenerative Options for Knee Pain Relief in Kansas
Kansas Regenerative Medicine Center offers non-surgical stem cell-based therapies for people exploring treatment options for chronic knee pain, osteoarthritis, previous injuries, meniscus injuries and cartilage damage.
Our regenerative medicine approach uses your own stem cells as part of an individualized treatment plan. Each patient is evaluated to determine whether stem cell therapy may be appropriate based on the condition of the knee, medical history, overall health and treatment goals.
When available, our physicians may review imaging such as an MRI to better understand what's happening inside the knee. Some knee conditions may be appropriate to consider for regenerative medicine, while others may require a different approach. As Dr. Pope explains, sometimes the nature or extent of the damage means stem cell therapy alone may not be appropriate.
For orthopedic knee treatments, your cells are carefully prepared and administered to the targeted area. Our physicians use image guidance when appropriate to help precisely administer treatment.
Procedures are performed on an outpatient basis at our Manhattan, KS and Kansas City locations, without the need for general anesthesia or a hospital stay.
Who May Consider Regenerative Medicine for Knee Pain?
Patients who come to KRMC for knee evaluations represent a range of ages and circumstances. They may include people experiencing:
- Knee osteoarthritis or age-related wear and tear
- Meniscus injuries
- Cartilage damage
- Sports-related knee injuries
- Persistent knee pain after previous treatment or arthroscopy
Dr. Pope notes that KRMC also evaluates patients who have already undergone arthroscopy but continue to experience knee pain. The important question isn't simply a patient's age—it's the nature of the knee problem and whether regenerative medicine may be appropriate for that individual.
Stem cell therapy is not appropriate for every person or every knee condition, and no specific outcome can be guaranteed. Our physicians evaluate each patient individually and help them understand whether regenerative medicine may be an option worth considering.
Exploring Your Knee Treatment Options
If you're deciding between different approaches to knee pain, an evaluation can help you better understand your options. Depending on your condition, those options may include regenerative medicine or more traditional orthopedic treatment.
The goal of the consultation isn't to assume stem cell therapy is right for you. It's to understand what's happening in your knee and determine whether regenerative medicine may be an appropriate option.

Some patients come to KRMC after trying options such as physical therapy, medications or injections, while others are exploring non-surgical treatment options before considering surgery.
Because the type and extent of knee damage can vary considerably, our physicians evaluate each patient individually and may review imaging, such as an MRI, when available. Regenerative medicine is not appropriate for every knee condition.
KRMC's regenerative medicine approach uses your own stem cells as part of an individualized treatment plan.
Your cells are collected and carefully prepared during an outpatient procedure. For orthopedic knee treatment, the cells are then administered to the targeted area using image guidance when appropriate.
Because every knee condition is different, a KRMC physician will first evaluate your condition, medical history and available imaging to determine whether stem cell therapy may be an appropriate option.
Knee treatment at KRMC is performed on an outpatient basis. Local anesthesia is used, and a hospital stay or general anesthesia is not typically required.
Your treatment is based on your individual knee condition and treatment plan. The KRMC team will explain what to expect before, during and after your procedure, including any instructions for activity and follow-up.
