OrthoBoston, a regenerative medicine clinic in Needham, specializes in platelet-rich plasma therapy and stem-cell therapy for orthopaedic and sports-medicine conditions. The practice offers both regenerative and surgical options, with treatment selection individualized to each patient's presentation. Stem-cell and PRP protocols are used for joint damage, soft-tissue injury, and chronic musculoskeletal pain where regenerative approaches may support tissue repair and functional recovery. The clinic is led by an orthopaedic surgeon and combines regenerative modalities with conventional orthopaedic care, allowing patients to explore cell-based and orthobiologic options alongside or instead of surgery when appropriate. An initial consultation typically includes imaging review and discussion of which regenerative approach fits the clinical picture.

I had done quite a bit of research on using Orthobiologics to improve joint function & improve comfort levels from the arthritis I have in both of my knees It was preventing me from participating in my walking group activities & playing golf.
Having had a number of unrelated surgeries & health issues over the last 4 years I was not interested in having 2 total knee replacements & the down time for PT & recovery. I wanted to get back to living a more active lifestyle.
I am now 5 weeks out from my last injection treatment & the response has been great.
My pain levels have decreased dramatically,
I no longer feel & hear the bone on bone grinding when I squat , the swelling has decreased, I can walk longer distances w/ less discomfort.
Although not @ 100% I expect further improvement over the next six months.

She coached me through what to expect with a minimum of discomfort.

Dr. Hartshorn is awesome! Saw him for a 3rd degree torn ligament a week after an emergency room visit. He carefully explained everything including provided a virtual view, and did an additional X-ray to make sure the pain I was having in another area of the leg was not anything needing extra attention. Follow up after a month went well also. Very nice office staff and environment!

I went to Dr. Hartshorn at OrthoBoston for a 2nd opinion last year when I tore my ACL. The first doctor at a different clinic brushed off my MRI because my knee was only buckling “a few times”. He declined surgery and wanted me on 800mg advil 3x/day with physical therapy. Even still, I had been in pain for about 2.5 months. Dr. Hartshorn’s team scheduled a consult almost immediately. He walked me through my MRI results with a comprehensive explanation of what an ACL should look like, and what mine looked like. He treated me with compassion and respect every step of the way. He went through alternative options and thoroughly explained the potential risks of surgery. (He also gave me free vacation advice about Turks and Caicos!) Dr. Hartshorn did a phenomenal surgery with minimal incisions. here I am, 12 months later, and 100% pain free. I could not imagine getting back on the ski slopes this upcoming winter without him. Also, BIG shoutout to Kristine (if you’re reading this, hi!), she’s amazing as well. Made sure I got all my medical clearance paperwork to be excused from work in record time. Even if you live a distance away, please consider this practice. The right surgeon makes all the difference. Thank you OrthoBoston for everything!

Absolutely outstanding service. Having two invasive surgeries in 6 months on the same shoulder area isn’t what I would call a great time. Dr Tim is beyond amazing with his in depth analysis of every problem and his willingness to work with the patient as opposed to working for. Anup, Carlene Siobhan are providing the best up front care possible.
Entering into my second surgery in August I was beyond anxiety ridden but the entire staff and Dr Tim instilled confidence in me. I have had many emails and phone calls since February when I had my first surgery and I have never waited for more than a day for a reply.
I have literally trusted my life to Dr Tim and the team twice in six months and wouldn’t hesitate to ever again. When a Dr calls to check on you while he’s on vacation with his family you can rest assured you’ve made the right choice. I can’t speak highly enough of the staff at OrthoBoston. Extremely highly recommended.

I have been a patient of Dr. Hartshorn for a few years now. He is amazing!! He is extremely intelligent, great bedside manner and down to Earth. He explains procedures so anyone can understand. I've had a reverse shoulder operation as well as a knee replacement. As I fall apart, he puts me back together. I was a nurse for 28 Years, you can't find a better orthopedist.
