Knee · In-home evaluation · Central Florida

Knee pain that has stopped responding to the usual answers.

If you have been managing knee pain with injections, anti-inflammatories and physical therapy and the relief keeps getting shorter, a regenerative evaluation is a way to find out honestly whether there is another option — before a knee replacement becomes the only conversation on the table.

Does this sound familiar

Who tends to call us

You might recognise yourself here

Your knee hurts on stairs, getting out of a chair, or after you have been still.
Cortisone helped, then helped less, then stopped helping for long.
You have been told to lose weight, wait, and come back when it is bad enough for surgery.
You are active and you are not ready to plan your life around one joint.

What we are not

We are not an urgent-care service, we do not manage
emergencies, and we do not accept insurance. If what you need is a surgeon, a wound centre or an
emergency room, the most useful thing we can do is tell you that on the first call.

How the evaluation works

An evaluation first — not a program

For knees we review any X-ray or MRI you already have. If your imaging is old or you have never had any, your physician will tell you what is worth getting and why — we would rather look first than guess.

An in-home physician evaluation. History, exam, a review of your imaging and your goals — in your own living room, not a waiting room.
Comprehensive blood work. Ordered before any plan is finalized, because inflammation and metabolic health shape what is reasonable to attempt.
Image-guided delivery. When a procedure is part of the plan, it is placed under ultrasound or fluoroscopic guidance as standard — never as an upcharge.
In-home therapeutic devices. Equipment you keep and use between visits, chosen for your plan rather than sold as an add-on.
A personalised anti-inflammatory nutrition plan and supplement guidance. The parts of recovery that happen without us in the room.
Scheduled follow-up visits. Built into the plan at set intervals, not billed as separate appointments.

Candidacy

Who is and isn’t a candidate

Candidacy is decided individually by a physician after examining you — never from a form or a
phone call. Two lists are worth knowing before you spend an hour with us.

Reasons we would not proceed

An active infection in or near the area being considered.
An active malignancy near the treatment site.
Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
A clear surgical indication — if you need a surgeon, we will tell you so.

Timing issues we work around

A corticosteroid injection into the same area within the past 4 weeks — we wait it out.
Anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) taken within 5 days of a procedure — these are paused beforehand.
Blood thinners — held or adjusted only in coordination with your prescribing physician.

What to expect

The realistic timeline

These are the intervals we plan around and the schedule we hold ourselves to. They are not a
promise about your result.

Any anti-inflammatories are paused for 5 days beforehand.
Weight-bearing is limited for roughly 48 hours afterward.
Physical therapy or range-of-motion work resumes at about 7–10 days.
When change occurs, it is usually gradual — most often noticed somewhere around weeks 3–6 rather than in the first few days.
A full functional reassessment happens at 3 months, with check-ins at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months.
Whether a second series makes sense is a decision made 4–6 months out, based on how you actually responded.

Honest by design

What the evidence does and does not show

Here is what an honest conversation sounds like. The biologic therapies we use are investigational and may be provided on an off-label basis. They have not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat, cure, mitigate or prevent any disease or condition, and nobody — including us — can tell you in advance that they will work for you.

The published research in this field is early. Much of it is laboratory and animal work, the human studies are mostly small, and some well-run trials have found no advantage over placebo. We are not going to quote you numbers from a study and imply they are your results.

What we will do is look at your imaging, your history and your goals, tell you plainly whether you look like a reasonable candidate, and tell you when you are not. Some people leave our evaluation with a recommendation to see a surgeon instead. That is a good outcome.

What it costs, before you ask

Single-joint sessions start at $5,000. A complete care plan is quoted only after a physician evaluation, because what belongs in it depends on your imaging, your history and how many areas are involved — not on a menu. Patient financing is available for those who qualify.

Your first 15-minute phone call is free. The in-home physician consultation is $99, and that $99 is credited toward your care plan if you decide to move forward.

Common questions

Knee — questions we get asked

Is this a knee replacement alternative?

It is not a replacement for surgery, and we will not describe it that way. For some people it is a reasonable thing to try first; for others the honest answer is that surgery is the better option, and we will say so during your evaluation.

Do you come to my house for this?

Yes. REVĪV is a mobile practice — there is no clinic to drive to. Your evaluation and your care both happen at home, across Orlando, Melbourne, Lakeland, Plant City and the surrounding communities.

Will insurance cover it?

No. These are elective, self-pay programs. Patient financing is available for those who qualify, and we tell you the full cost in writing before anything begins.

More questions — cost, safety, what these preparations actually are, what happens if you react — are answered on our FAQ page.

No pressure and no obligation. We listen to your history, tell you honestly whether an
evaluation is worth your time, and if it is not, we say so.
