Regenerative Medicine in Tulsa

Regenerative medicine is a general category of treatment approaches that work with the body’s own tissues rather than relying on surgery or drugs. At Care Family Medical & Chiropractic in Tulsa, it describes a group of options that patients ask us about. This page is educational. It introduces the category and points you toward the individual pages for each option so you can read more.

Dr. Curtis Smith has practiced in the Tulsa area for more than 30 years. Patients often come in curious about newer options they have read about online. Our goal on these pages is simple. We want to explain what each option is and how a visit works, in plain language, without making promises about results.

The options patients ask about

Several options fall under this part of our practice. Each one is different, and each has its own page on this site.

• PRP injections use a concentrated portion of your own blood.
• Pressure wave therapy is a non-invasive option that uses sound waves.
• Red light therapy is a non-invasive option delivered in short sessions.
• Stem cell and skin care pages cover approaches some patients ask about, written conservatively and for education.

We encourage you to read the page that matches your question. Each one describes what the option is and what a typical visit involves.

How a session or visit works

Every option starts with a conversation. Before anything else, you meet with Dr. Smith for a consultation. He asks about your health history, listens to what brought you in, and answers your questions. From there, he can explain what a given option involves and whether it is something worth discussing further for your situation.

The specific steps depend on the option. Some are delivered in the office over a short session. Others involve a simple in-office procedure. The individual pages walk through each one in more detail.

What to expect at a consultation

A consultation at our Tulsa office is a no-obligation conversation. You do not need to decide anything that day. Dr. Smith reviews your history and talks through your questions so you have clear information. Whether any option is appropriate depends on your individual health, and that is something he assesses one person at a time.

It helps to come with a list of questions. You might ask what an option involves, what is and is not known about it, and what you should expect during and after a visit.

Who commonly asks about these options

People who ask about regenerative options are often looking for approaches that work without surgery or drugs. Some have tried other things and want to understand their choices. Others are simply curious about what they have read.

Before you call, it can help to write down what you want to know. Good questions include what a given option involves, how a typical visit is structured, what is and is not known about it, and how the options on this site differ from one another. There are no wrong questions, and a consultation is the right place to ask them. Dr. Smith would rather you leave with clear information than with a decision made too quickly.

Wherever you are starting from, we are happy to talk. Our office is at 1810 E 15th St, Suite B, in Tulsa, open Monday through Friday from 8am to 6pm. Call 918-836-7900 to set up a free consultation and bring your questions.
