Offering your patients the opportunity to preserve their adipose tissue and stem cells for use in the future is a valuable way to expand the services you offer to your patients, and a useful resource in case management. In many procedures, such as liposuction or abdominoplasty, the patient is already having their adipose tissue collected, and therefore, storage at the time of procedure is highly convenient because it requires no additional harvest procedure.
Patients that have their autologous tissue stored give you more options for treatment approaches, whether used alone or as an adjunct to commercial fillers and implants. Autologous tissue is natural, has no contraindications, and it is readily available as a resource for use as a dermal filler, in rejuvenation approaches, other cosmetic enhancements, or in future augmentation or reconstructive surgeries.
And, in light of the rapidly advancing fields of cell therapy and tissue engineering, many doctors feel that since we now know there is value in a patient’s stem cells and adipose tissue, all patients today should be made aware of their option to bank before their resource is discarded.
Even if there is not the convenience of a scheduled procedure, any patient can elect to collect and store their adipose tissue and stem cells.

DR. TODD MALAN
Dr. Todd Malan is considered one of the true pioneers of fat derived stem cell therapies in the USA. In October of 2009, Dr. Todd Malan was the first U.S. physician to utilize adipose or fat derived stem cells for soft tissue reconstruction. He has described his techniques and experience as an author in two medical textbooks as well as having presented at dozens of stem cell conferences worldwide.
Our mission is to treat each person as a whole to address the root cause of the concern
with an individualized and detailed treatment plan to improve symptoms.
Desert Health Specialists is conveniently located on the Southeast corner of Price Road and Warner Road, just East of the 101. We also offer same day scheduling.Dr. Joelle Fox, Chandler’s leading Naturopathic specialist, is an expert in natural health and integration of alternative and conventional medicine. If your goal is to relieve pain, look younger, and feel better, Desert Health Specialists can help – naturally! Dr. Fox provides patients with care in general health and wellness, musculoskeletal conditions, joint regeneration, nutritional counseling, and specialty testing (to name a few), as well as common acute conditions for the whole family.
Repairing You, Naturally!
With medicine evolving we are able to now offer patient cutting edge treatment options that are alternatives to joint replacement surgery. Stem Cell Therapy for Arthritis and other injuries is that treatment. It is ideal for improving joint mobility, reducing joint pain, and preventing costly and painful surgeries.
Here at Desert Health Specialists, we understand you have seen other physicians or even surgeons that have diagnosed you or somebody you know with Arthritis, Degenerative Joint Disease or been told your joints are Bone-on-Bone. As patients are diagnosed with these conditions, common medical treatments ensue, including anti-inflammatory drugs, pain killers, Rooster Comb Injections (Orthovisc/Synvisc), cortisone injections and possibly physical therapy. As treatments are tried the benefit and relief from many of these treatments is short lived and other treatment options are provided to take the pervious treatments place and still short lived results keep occurring. The end result for many of these conditions is major surgery like a total joint replacement or live with chronic pain and disability. Well, we have a solution to all these problems and its Stem Cell Therapy.
Stem Cell Injection Therapy takes advantage of your body’s ability to repair itself naturally! With amniotic allograft injection therapy, one of our trained physicians injects the prepared amniotic solution into your area of pain. The injected amniotic solution contain anti-inflammatory properties, similar to that of cortisone but none of the negative and synthetic aspects cortisone injections contain. This solution goes far beyond the benefits of standard “cortisone injection therapy.” The growth factors found in the treatment may replace damaged cells in the area of your pain providing you pain relief. Additionally, amniotic injections contain a property called hyaluronic acid, which works to lubricate your joints and tendons, easing your pain and eventually restoring mobility.
Commonly Treated Injuries:
Osteoarthritis, Bone-on-Bone, Degenerative Joint Disease
Tendonitis & Tendenosis
Soft Tissue Injuries
Over Use Injuries (i.e., Rotater Cuff, Golfers Elbow, Tennis Elbow)
Plantar Fasciitis
Muscle Tear
and More!

Global Health Stem Cell Therapy is a global health provider offering a full array of stem cell therapies for regeneration and rejuvenation of the whole body combined with Naturopathic assessments and treatments for optimal performance.
Stem Cell Regenerative Cell Therapy uses your own undifferentiated cells, which have the ability to replace damaged and dying cells and regenerate and restore them toward optimal function. These special cells can be introduced into the body by IV or injection into any area of the body to renew joints, skin, organs, and other types of tissue. Stem Cells are derived from your own fat, the richest and most viable source of active stem cells. Stem Cells promote regeneration of healthy cells naturally, without the need for expensive or invasive surgeries, medications, and interventions. Stem Cell Regenerative Cell Therapy can reduce pain, improve energy, and enhance the quality of life.
Stem Cells, Brain Cells and Exercise a great combination!
Dr. Fred H. Gage, PhD(The Salk Institute for Biological Studies, USA), reported recently in an international conference on current research in stem cell therapy. He described that though the brain ages or declines normally, we have the ability to reverse or slow this declining process. He describes how new cells are generated all the time in the brain, it takes approximately 6 weeks for these new brain cells to be produced and they could last us a lifetime.
Research has shown that different life events can affect two things: first, the increased or decreased production of new brain cells and second, the length of time these new brain cells will live for. For example, research in mice has shown that running can increase the number of new brain cells that are produced, and that stress will reduce it. More than that, if we learn new things (brain enrichment) then newly produced cells will last for longer.
Dr. Gage also said, that as we grow older there is a normal reduction in the production of new brain cells. However, in mice, the research seems to show again that learning is improved in older mice following regular exercise. This interesting research is being continued with human subjects and initial work shows that exercise and brain enrichment can cause physical changes in the brain. These changes lead to cognitive improvements. His final comments included this summary statement: “what we do affects our brain – we are what we do AND we have a choice.”
The amazing power of stem cells helps people worldwide overcome pain, avoid surgery, and get back to the activities they enjoy. At Integrative Medical, we are dedicated to making this leading-edge treatment accessible to everybody in the Phoenix and San Diego metro areas.
Integrative Medical Stem Cell Therapies
Struggling with joint pain and aches? Want to regain your ability to run, exercise, and move freely? If so, consider stem cell treatment! This therapy has been shown great potential in treating a wide range of disorders, from painful joints to lung disease and arthritis. Each day, people receive stem cell treatments to restore mobility and ease pain.
Repair Tissue Damage
This cutting-edge treatment has been used for decades to repair damaged tissues and stimulate healing, for instance in eye conditions or wound care. Its use in joint problems or lung conditions has only begun recently, and preliminary results are very promising.
High Potency Treatments
Two popular stem cell activator treatments offered at Integrative Medical are called Amniotic Stem cell injections and Adipose Stem cell therapy. Amniotic stem cell therapy uses high potency stem cells, does not require an additional, potentially painful procedure to harvest stem cells from your own body, and it is cost-effective compared to other stem cell treatments. Adipose stem cell treatment uses your own stem cells, it offers an exceptionally high cell count, and it can also be employed via IV infusion.
Initial research shows very promising results in regenerating tissue damage, reducing pain, and improving symptoms of COPD and other systemic conditions. Stem cell therapy is very safe, minimally invasive, and well-tolerated, and all treatments at Integrative Medical are performed by board-certified physicians.

R3 offers treatments that bring patients hope and options. Hope that surgery can be avoided, and tissue injury can be repaired with the ability to do things like play with your kids again, go hiking, swimming, ride a bike and be… Pain-Free!
Existing pain management treatments have been great for suppressing pain by masking discomfort with medications such as cortisone, opiates or anti-inflammatory medications.
These treatments work well for relief, but they don’t actually FIX the PROBLEM! It’s like placing a Bandaid over the issue, but the underlying condition remains.
Fixing Tissue Injury
So how do we actually repair the problem at hand, such as Joint Arthritis, back or neck pain, rotator cuff tendonitis, ligament injury, tennis elbow?
Regenerative Medicine at R3 Stem Cell’s Centers of Excellence has the potential for actually restoring normal anatomy by using treatments with stem cells, platelets, and growth factors to initiate a healing response in your body.
You see, Stem Cells are like a blank slate, able to differentiate into many types of cells needed depending on the environment in which they are placed.
In addition, regenerative therapies are now being used successfully for COPD, Kidney Disease, Stroke, Alzheimer’s, Autism, Parkinson’s, Heart Failure, Erectile Dysfunction, ALS, MS, neuropathy, pelvic pain and more!
R3 Stem Cell Treatments
The R3 Institute offers stem cell injection treatments including:
Stem Cell Injections derived from your own Bone Marrow or Fat
Amniotic Derived Stem Cell Injections and Infusions
Umbilical Cord Tissue Stem Cell Injections and Infusions
Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy
These are all same day, outpatient treatments. All of the injections are performed either into joints or soft tissue with some being administered IV or via nebulizer. R3 is a research-based clinic, with treatments being subsidized by the industry as a result. This means the out of pocket cost is typically 40% less than what you will see elsewhere. None of the treatments are covered by insurance.
Initial studies are showing these stem cell procedures to have great promise in regenerating and healing injury while diminishing pain. For instance, multiple professional sports leagues have approved of PRP therapy along with the WADA.
Pro athletes who have had regenerative medicine treatments performed include the likes of Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard, Rafael Nadal, Tiger Woods and hundreds of NFL, MLB and NBA athletes.
All of the treatments at R3 are administered by Board Certified physicians.
