Disclaimer

This Disclaimer applies to the website of the Michigan Center for Regenerative Medicine (MCRM), including all pages, blog articles, videos, webinars and downloadable materials. By using this website, you acknowledge the terms below.

Educational Information Only

The information on this website is provided for general educational and informational purposes. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for a professional evaluation, diagnosis or treatment by a qualified physician. Always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified health provider with any questions about a medical condition, and never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read or watched on this website.

No Substitute for Informed Consent

Information provided on this website is not intended to constitute informed consent for any medical procedure or treatment. All proposed treatments are subject to an individualized medical evaluation and a separate informed consent process addressing the nature of the treatment, potential risks and benefits, alternatives, and other relevant considerations.

Individual Results Vary

Regenerative treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), prolotherapy and cell-based procedures are not appropriate for everyone. Outcomes depend on the diagnosis, severity, overall health, rehabilitation and other factors. We do not guarantee any particular result, and no treatment described on this website should be considered a cure for any disease or condition.

FDA Status of Regenerative Treatments

Certain regenerative medicine treatments and procedures discussed on this website, including some platelet-rich plasma (PRP), cell-based, and orthobiologic treatments, have not been approved or cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the conditions described. Some treatments may be considered investigational or experimental, and the safety and effectiveness of such treatments may not have been established through FDA-reviewed clinical studies. The use of a patient’s own cells or tissues does not necessarily mean that a treatment is FDA-approved or exempt from FDA regulation.

Testimonials and Reviews

Patient reviews, testimonials and videos reflect the personal experiences of individual patients. They are not typical results, are not a guarantee of outcome and should not be relied on as medical advice.

Physician Review and Accuracy

Our physicians review medical content on this website, and we update pages periodically. Medical knowledge changes, however, and we cannot guarantee that every page reflects the most current research at all times. If you notice information that appears out of date, please let us know.

Insurance and Costs

Information about insurance coverage and costs is general. Coverage depends on your plan, diagnosis and the specific service, and many regenerative treatments are self-pay. Please confirm benefits with your insurer and request an estimate before treatment.

Electronic Communications and Privacy

Visitors should avoid submitting sensitive medical information through general website contact forms or unsecured email communications. Electronic communications may not be secure and should not be used for urgent medical concerns. Any collection, use, or disclosure of personal or protected health information is governed by applicable law and MCRM’s privacy policies and notices, as applicable.

This website may link to independent organizations and other third-party websites for reference. We do not control and are not responsible for the content of those websites.

Medical Emergencies

This website is not intended for urgent or emergency situations. If you think you may have a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department immediately.
