MEDICAL STEM CELL CLINIC
BONITA SPRINGS,
ABOUT DR. STEVE COLEMAN

After undergraduate pre-medical studies at Michigan State University, he attended Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine and Graduated with a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine.
OUR MISSION
MedicalMasters.org is dedicated to practicing ethical, quality medicine. We put patient care before profits with zero tolerance for price gouging or “drive-by” medicine. This particularly applies to our orthopedic stem cell procedures in Bonita Springs, FL.
Age: 68
I have had two meniscus tears, and surgeries, over the last two years. The last one a year ago. The knee did not recover as I hoped me stopping from enjoying my favorite hobby - long walks. Getting treated by Dr. Coleman has been a wonderful experience and given me hope to get back to things I enjoy doing in life.
Age: 80
I was a former soccer player in my youth who was told by an orthopedic surgeon that my last hope was knee replacement therapy. After my daughter booked me a consultation with Dr. Coleman I felt an immediate, 50% improvement in knee mobility and pain reduction, after the procedure. Dr. Coleman is a very professional and caring physician and I highly recommend him. You do not always have to opt for knee surgery - it should be a last resort!
SCHEDULE APPOINTMENT
We do not make claims of miracle cures or mislead patients based on the latest trending technologies such as stem cell treatment or other ”Buzz Words”. We aim to provide the best treatments available, and to instill reasonable expectations for our patients. We perform a comprehensive medical assessment (CMA) and try to determine if your body is likely to respond to stem cell therapies. Schedule an appointment below - we welcome new patients.
Leverage Stem Cell Therapy for joint pain to get back to the things you love including walking, running, tennis and other outdoor activities.
Dr. Steve Coleman, D.O., extracting fat cells for re-injection back into patient's affected joint (in this case his right knee). Typically the procedure will not last more than 3-4 hours. Patient will usually experience positive outcomes within 3-7 days of the procedure.
is knee or hip replacement surgery my only option?
Not necessarily. Our medical clinic estimates that 1/3* of all patients who undergo knee and hip replacements should never have taken them in the first place. Unseen costs and complications arise which should make us pause to consider alternatives.
Additionally, the cost to society and ultimately to every patient must be kept in mind as we move forward. Why wait to treat a patient until the only way out is a total knee replacement, at a cost of $40,000 to $80,000? Even if your insurance pays the full amount, those costs will eventually be passed on to consumers one way or another.
We often find that patients experience very good results from hybrid Stem Cell Therapies, which may include Adipocyte grafting (fat derived stem cells) , Bone marrow and Platelet Rich Plasma. We also often add in advanced prolotherapy injection techniques,which target specific pain generating structures. Dextrose prolotherapy (sterile sugar water) can also be added, with excellent benefits. It is widely believed that these procedures carry far less risk at a much more affordable price than traditional surgeries using general anesthesia.
If we are able to help patients have less pain and perform activities of daily living with less limitations, that is a win-win situation. If we can do that while lessening surgical risks and reducing costs, it is a triple win for patients.

how long does the healing process take with stem cells?
Here is a typical timeline that can differ significantly from person to person. They key to remember here is to keep your body moving and keep food and water intake up. This minimizes the risk of blood clot formation and loss of strength and function in the postoperative period.
DAY ONE
MODERATE TO SEVERE PAIN
Indicates healing process
After I extract your bone marrow and fat cells for re-injection back into your joint, you may have significant pain from the procedures, but some people who are very lucky have almost no pain. Most people have more pain from the re-injection of their cells, than they do from the extraction of their fat or bone marrow. Who would have guessed?
DAY 2
SOME DISCOMFORT
The body reacts quickly to injections
There is usually Definite discomfort in the area of reinjection for several days but severe pain is rare. Medications are usually needed by about 80% of patients during this time period.
DAY 3
REDUCED PAIN MEDICATIONS
You are approaching the half-way mark
in the healing process
At this point many people feel well enough to stop taking the pain medications. Many experience an improvement in mobility.
DAY 7
GOOD IMPROVEMENT OF POST PROCEDURE DISCOMFORT
Postive outcomes
Most people are feeling much better than pre-procedure with greater mobility, less pain and overall sense that their knee take on more activities.
what should I expect if I undergo stem cell treatment
TREATMENT DAY
In summary, a stem cell procedure involves collecting your blood, fat cells and bone-marrow, preparing your cells correctly, and then reinjecting your cells back into the problem area.
Your cells can then begin to do their work of rebuilding and reinvigorating your joint.
All procedures are classed as Level 1 therapies meaning we implement safe, local anesthetics at our clinic and carefully monitor your condition. Some people will also need an anti anxiety medication on treatment day. We will also conduct a blood pressure & glucose check, if needed. We want your day to be safe and pleasant.
STEP 1: EXTRACTING PRP & BLOOD
The next step will be to have you comfortably sit, while we draw your blood. The purpose of this is to give us the raw material (your very own blood) that we will use to derive your Platelet Rich Plasma or what is called PRP. Your PRP will be used just a little later when we are injecting your cells back into your body.
STEP 2: EXTRACTING FAT CELLS
This step is a little bit more painful, since it involves getting a “bee sting” which is Lidocaine with epinephrine. This diluted solution is used to reduce pain, and also to reduce bleeding within the fat cells. This is called Tumescent anesthesia. Fatty tissue is full of very small blood vessels. The diluted epinephrine nearly eliminates all bleeding, which makes the procedure safe and the recovery quicker, with less bruising.
STEP 3: EXTRACTING BONE MARROW CELLS
The last step before we re-inject your cells is to “Get the Gold”. Your bone-marrow is like “Gold” for you. It is the super special ingredient on the road to your recovery. This is the most uncomfortable part of the procedure. Some patients are not a good candidate for bone marrow aspiration so other cells can be used to much the same effect. This sounds much worse than it actually is, so I want you to understand, and not fear this key step to your healing.
STEP 4: PREPARING THE CELLS FOR THEIR MISSION
Now that we have your PRP prepared by super gravity spinning, and light activation, the PRP is ready for injection. Next we turn our attention to your fat cells. They will be divided and sterilely placed into syringes for injection. Your freshly harvested Bone-Marrow, has been carefully mixed to prevent degradation, and is also now ready for injection.
IMPORTANT: Please note that according to the Food and Drug Administration, we can only do minimal manipulation of your cells prior to treating you. So, of course, that is what we have done. Our credo is to be FDA compliant, FTC compliant and Medical Board compliant. Since six out of ten patients getting Stem Cells are being treated for knee pain, we will use a knee as a typical example of a joint injection.
STEP 5: PREPARING KNEE JOINT FOR RE-INJECTION OF STEM CELLS
We again clean the exterior of the knee for sterility and inject small amounts of local anesthetic. The three different types of cells are in three different syringes: Bone Marrow, Adipose Derived Stem Cells, and PRP. The Bone Marrow provides stem cells and growth factors. The adipose tissue provides expansion of the joint space, lubrication and stem cells. The PRP provides the “Jump Start” of Healing cells and Factors (the concentrated platelets)
STEP 5: WRAPPING IT UP
The knee is then given a sterile dressing and an elastic wrap to keep the knee stable. After you are given post procedure instructions and supplements, you are ready for your ride home. We will see you for follow up in two weeks or sooner if need be
In addition to the above we will provide you with even more information when you schedule your first consultation. This gives a general overview of the procedures involved, but your therapy will be specific to your unique situation. This is what you can expect during your first stem cell therapy at MedicalMasters.org.

Yes, this is a complex process and anyone who says it is easy, has never been a patient that has been through it, or a doctor who has performed it. Hopefully you will find that the final results are well worth the discomfort, the cost, and the time involved. If this procedure helps you to avoid a major knee replacement surgery in the future, it surely will have been worth the trouble.
