Dr Borenstein is the best. Very knowledgeable. Willing to treat the condition with both medicine and natural methods/supplements. This is the future of medicine. Traditional hospital-based practices act like factories. Dr Borenstein is a real doctor. Only took off one star because his admin, Lisa, is very rude and difficult to communicate with.

I came to Dr Borenstein over a year ago with a torn meniscus injury to my knee. He offered me a free evaluation. A week later he performed a stem cell procedure and after a 10 days I was able to walk up and down the stairs without any pain!! He called me several times after the procedure to see how I was doing . I have been pain free for over a year now and I can walk for 1 1/2 miles every day and I have no problem with running on the treadmill .The best thing was that I was able to avoid surgery. I highly recommend Dr Borenstein and his staff at the New York Stem Cell Treatment Center if you contemplating Stem cells for your knees.

I am a 49 year old male who was diagnosed two years ago with osteoarthritis in both hips. The recommendation was that I get a hip replacement on both hips, but was also cautioned that due to my age, I would likely have to repeat the process in 10 years' time. That was not an option for me so I opted to manage the situation as best I could. In December 2016 my hips started hurting me more and I knew that I had to address my situation. After extensive searching, I found Dr Borenstein and contacted him via his website. I was pleasantly surprised to get a call from him that same evening, during which we discussed my treatment options and made arrangements for him to review my records. After reviewing my xrays and report, he advised me that stem cell therapy was a viable option for me, and invited me to make an appointment for treatment. When I arrived for my treatment I was greeted by Dr Borenstein, who seemed very affable. After completing my sign in forms we went through the consultation, during which I was advised of the potential risks and benefits of the procedure, what to expect of the treatment and my recovery phase, and discussed any other issues that might be affecting me as a result of my condition. I was quite surprised when, on hearing that I had back issues, he requested my MRI and indicated that he would treat that too! The procedure itself was quite straighforward. Liposuction from the right buttocks, an hour long stroll around Lincoln Centre while the stem cells were separated, the extraction of blood, plasma separation, locating the injection sites and the injection of the stem cells and plasma all took 3 1/2 hrs, including my back. Did it hurt? Yes! Probably a 5 on the childbirth scale and a solid 10 on the man flu scale. But after the lidocaine injection into the hip after the stem cells, the pain that I had lived with for years was gone! My range of motion was 100% better immediately after the procedure and has remiained that way for two weeks so far. Dr Borenstein has checked up on me at least every other day since the procedure and continues to be pleased with my progress. I have recommended him to at least 6 people so far and would encourage others to check with him before making a decision that you may regret for the rest of your life. With physiotherapy, my prognosis for getting back to running is looking good. I am exremely grateful to Dr Borenstein and his staff, Karen and Lisa, for giving me the chance to reclaim my quality of life. Talk to him before you make that final decision. You will not regret it.
