Knee Procedure Outcomes

Regenexx maintains an active patient registry that tracks patients’ self-reported progress or side effects, post-procedure. Their outcomes database contains records on tens of thousands of Regenexx procedures performed by physicians in their network.

Industry-Leading Musculoskeletal Specialists – Focused on Results

Regenexx patients benefit from the expertise of a board-certified physician who handles both their evaluation and their Regenexx procedure. Patients receive a treatment plan customized to their specific condition or injury needs. Regenexx non-surgical procedures are informed by research, utilize leading biotechnology, and are supported by over 19 years of patient results.

Doctors

Since completing his residency in physiatry, Dr. Richnak has consistently pursued additional professional training, driven by his strong interest in regenerative medicine and its ability to help the human body heal itself.

Today, Dr. Richnak is managing partner at Mountain View Rehabilitation Medical Associates, where he is co-chairman of their sports and spine specialty clinic.

Since 2003, Dr. Richnak and his family have lived in the Sierra Foothills of Northern California. He is an avid outdoor sports enthusiast, with experience as a climbing and back-country ski guide.
