Am a stroke survivor. Loss of vision and left side. Also needed two knee replacements and a rt shoulder rotator cuff repair. Was told “you are too high a risk for any surgery “. TruStem was my last resort….was treated 3/16/21. Now…no headaches, have peripheral vision, improved balance, and sense of touch is rapidly improved. Shoulder seems to be better. School is still out on the knees as it has only been two weeks since the procedure. There is now hope instead of despair.

I have stage IV COPD and take various medications in order to ease symptoms. I typically have 2-3 flare ups a year. Daily routine tasks can be challenging. Things such as making a bed, walking short distances, cooking, showering and exercising. The simple things were very challenging. I received treatment in early November. I felt the results of my treatment right away. I was able to walk directly to the elevator after my treatment which was not the case prior. I would sit and rest before or after getting off the elevator at the hotel. My symptoms have been reduced. I can do all of the things listed above without duress. I am improving everyday. I feel so good already. I am super excited to experience future results. The professional support from the TruStem team was incredible. They welcome and respond to questions and/or concerns quickly. The TruStem Cell Therapy has added life to my years. The results are indefeasible. Debra K.

I have adhesive arachnoiditis. The Trustem group is very professional and understanding. The procedure was as described. Following the procedure I judge that there is at least an 80% improvement in my symptoms. My pau is significantly reduced, my body mechanics is greatly improved and I can exercise and stay active again. I would highly recommend TruStem

I have suffered from drug resistant epilepsy for almost 12 years. the grand mal seizures would sometimes come in clusters as many as 3 or 4 a day and up to 2 to 4 times a week. This disease cost me a marriage, a few relationships, and my career all because people were scared. After years of surgeries, accidents, hundreds of thousands of dollars, and new medications options were running out. I personally researched stem cell therapy and found TruStem. Joe did a great job of answering my questions and getting the appointment set up and following up post procedure just to see how I was doing. The staff was very friendly and efficient. Dr Rachel discussed my treatment with me and what to expect and even though I was getting the stem cells I’d still need to see my neurologist and take my meds as needed. My procedure was on 9/16/20 and as of 10/15/20 I have yet to have a seizure and look forward to my condition to continue improving. I think the work that is being done at TruStem is amazing and would recommend them.

I limped into TruStem’s clinic on Fe. 24th of this year. I had no cartilige in my left ankle. It was bone on bone. Each step was terribly painful. The procedure was scheduled for 8:30 A.M. At 8:30 they took me back and started the process. I was amazed, The harvesting of the stem cells from my hip was painless. I was then taken to a nice waiting room with my wife while they prepared my injections. I was given 3 injections in my ankle along with an IV injection. I WALKED out the door at 11:00 AM, right on time. After driving two hours (my wife was driving) I needed a bathroom break. We pulled in a rest stop. I wondered how in the world was I going to walk to the restroom. I stepped out of the car and could not belive it. I was already able to walk with greatly reduced pain. It has been 7 months. I am able to walk and go about my daily activities. I strap my back pack on and head to the woods to hunt deer. I thought I was going to be a cripple. Thank you Tru Stem for the professionalism and courtesy. Your staff was wonderful. I am 70 years old also.

I had a stoke in March of ‘19. I decided to have a procedure at TruStem in March of 20. Joe was informative and helpful from the first time I emailed them. Dr. Rachel was thorough and answered my questions. The procedure itself was minimally painful and easy to recover from. It’s only 3 weeks out and I’m noticing small improvement in speech and balance. I’m looking forward to seeing how things improve over the next several months.

I got bone marrow stem cell therapy done on May 12 it was completely painless everyone was very informative professional and kind. I didn’t immediately feel results or good right away which they did say could be the case everyone had a different healing rate they don’t give you false hope or they keep it 100% with you. I have MS I was diagnosed on Dec.2019 I haven’t been symptom free since diagnosis I had a mild burning sensation on my leg head pressures some dizziness and my eyes would hurt…. after the procedure I felt bad from my symptoms three days later but now I have been almost symptom free for 4 days since diagnosis. I feel great the only different thing I have done is my stem cell therapy and hoping for so much more recovery I would definitely do it again if I need to. It was completely painless no need to be nervous!

“My mom had a stroke 3 years ago that affected her left side. After the stroke she had about 90 days of rehab where she was able to walk but not able to use her left arm and hand. Walking was a struggle at times but she kept at it as much as she could. After much research my mom decided to try a stem cell therapy treatment. So after the treatment the next day she had felt tingling in her left hand. She was very hopeful at that time and remains hopeful to this day. Below are the improvements that my mom and I have noticed over the past 12 weeks. Left arm: she is able to lift her left arm up about 6 inches. For instance she can lift her left arm from her lap and place it on a table. She guides it a little with her right hand. Before the stem cell therapy she was not able to lift it at all! Left hand: she is able to grip with her left hand and use it to shake someone’s hand. Before the stem cell therapy she was not able to control a movement with her fingers or hand. We are still working on seeing if she can hold the yarn for her to crochet but we are not there…YET!! Walking: she is wanting and willing to walk more. I feel it isn’t as much of a struggle as it was before the stem cell therapy. Her stamina seems to have improved! Standing and transferring: she seems to be stronger in getting herself to stand from a seated position. In other words I don’t help her as much to get her to stand, she is able to do this on her own! Also, as long as her walker and wheel chair are in the correct placement she is able to transfer by herself! Overall health: she has stated to me that she feels better and stronger! She told me in November (about 4 weeks after the treatment) that her brain was telling her to walk more! 😊”

Everyone was very informative and honest. Please do your research when selecting a Stem Cell facility. This is the only place I could find in the U.S. that has a PhD Neuroscientist on staff! They have done their research and put the patient first. The care and compassion of the staff really helped make my visit a pleasant one. I am a little over one month post treatment and I am already seeing improvements after being diagnosed with MS about a year ago.

Hi, Just thought I would send you a little update. Joe has been back in OT & PT for about 5 weeks now. His OT is going very well. He can now completely dress himself (I had to put his socks & long sleeve shirts on before), he showers independently, he is getting more strength and use of his affected arm. PT is also going quite well. His memory seems to be improving as well. I’m thinking this is because of the stem cell therapy. Not sure, but everyone has been telling me that he is past the improvement stage. Well, Joe is proving them wrong!! Joe had his stroke August 16, 2014 and he had stem cell therapy Nov. 8, 2016

I was diagnosed with RA 15 years ago. I have been on several biologics, steroids, and pain medication since I was diagnosed. for many years the RA was pretty much under controlled, however during that time there was continued multiple joint damage. last year the biologics stopped being effective. Use of my hands became very limited and there was constant pain. At that point I began to research stem cell therapy. I looked at several stem cell clinics and finally talked to Dr Rachel an excellent surgeon and Dr Mcdole a PhD neuroscientist at TruStem Cell Therapy in Chicago. They answered all of my questions and concerns which I feel was very honest information. I decided to travel to Chicago for stem cell treatment. After we arrived there I was convinced I made the right decision. the minuet I met Dr Rachel and the TruStem cell members I knew I was in good hands. Dr Rachel is not only an excellent doctor but also a very warm and caring person. He and his entire staff were very friendly and professional. most importantly my treatment seems to be working. the pain level has dropped to the point that I have not taken any pain medication. It is my hope that my symptoms continue to improve as time goes on. My thanks to Dr Rachel, Dr Mcdole, Joe Perricone and the entire TruStem Cell staff!

I had stem cell treatment For PD June 27th. 2017 My legs have not cramped since. I feel my legs and lower back have improved. Still waiting for more results. Dr Rachel and the complete staff were very professional and made me feel very comfortable! Thank you to all of them!! Rob ackerman

I have MS and went for treatment 3 weeks ago. I can now lift my leg up w/o any assistance! I had bladder problems that are starting to get better. I always used a cane b4 but I now only use it if I know I am going to be on my feet for a long time. I still have tremors in my left hand but it has only been 3 weeks. They were very professional and explained everything thoroughly. It was definitely worth the trip from Denver and would highly recommend them.

The Cerebellum in my brain has shrunk. It messed with all my motor skills. The main one is my walking. I have been using a wheelchair for over 8 1/2 years now. I had my Stem Cell transplant a couple of weeks ago. I am showing good progress. And with my husbands help I am walking. I will update again in a few weeks. I am sure I will have even more progress. I recommend Stem Cell transplant. The Chicago team will guide & help you with anything. Everyone is real nice

From the first phone call inquiring about a stem cell transplant, through the procedure, and follow up… We were sincerely pleased with every detail, the Dr., the patient advocate ‘Joe’ and the nurses who all showed concern for a successful outcome… which is exactly what happened. We are happy to report much improvement in symptoms, and so thankful that we went to TruStem!!

I would rate it 5 plus. The procedure was not very painful.I had 2 strokes and to be honest I was giving up on life. I searched the internet one night and found Trustem cell Therapy. They have kept the price as low as they can to help as many people as possible.The Doctor was very sharp and every one in his office were kind and very professional..I flu home [after my stem cell treatment] and waited 2 weeks to get into hyperbaric chamber. Nothing changed for the first 5 [hyperbaric oxygen] treatments on the 6th one it was nothing short of a miracle. My confusion ended my short term memory came back I had a lot more energy.I had my life back.The best investment you will ever make is in your self.I have 22 more [hyperbaric oxygen] treatments to go and can’t wait to see were I end up. Bottom line they saved my life. Todd

My husband was looking for a facility providing adult stem cell therapy concerning his condition. After considerable research of such facilities, we were pleased to find the TruStem Cell facility in Chicago. Dr. Rachel along with his staff provided us the professionalism and expertise we sought. At one year following stem cell therapy my husband has maintained his health status and has seen improvement in his strength conditioning efforts. We are pleased with his results and recommend TruStem Cell Therapy.

Robert Holley – I am posting this for Steve Kotich. Steve has Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, ischemic heart disease and degenerative joint disease. All of which are a result of Agent Orange exposure while serving in the USMC in Vietnam. His Parkinson’s disease started progressing faster and the medications were no longer effective. His knees were bone on bone and he was unable to be cleared for surgery. We started researching other options. He was in constant pain both joint and muscle. His shuffling gait was getting so bad he could hardly get around which led to balance problems. We found Trustemcell and started the process of getting qualified as a candidate for stem cell therapy. Joe went above and beyond getting him qualified a and was always available to answer any questions we had. Steve had his stem cell therapy the first week of March with incredible results so far. The morning after therapy he said “for the first time in years I don’t have any pain” he could walk without shuffling and get up and down out of a chair without assistance. He walked from gate to gate on the way home. (He used a wheelchair on the way to chicago.) I have noticed little improvements every day. He has hope now. His overall attitude and demeanor has improved. He has started working in the yard which he has not done for years. He now smiles all the time. TruStemcell provided a miracle for us. The staff is second to none. They all are the best of the best. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone in need of stem cell therapy. Everyone there is simply amazing.

Having the Stemcell has allowed me to see more progress along w more physical therapy I am back to my old optimistic self worth highly recommend if I was wealthier I’d have another one good luck to anyone who needs a little more help

Stemcell is my second chance at life I immediately started seeing results the dr said it would take 3 or 4 months before my stemcell treatment would take full affect but its worth it

I had a stem cell treatment one month ago for my post stroke syptoms in TruStem cell therapy in Chicago. I was very pleased with how TruStem Cell team handled whole process of patient getting stem cell professionally and smoothly. All staff were caring and helpful. After a month of treatment, pain in my affected left shoulder and left thigh is gone. I am looking forward to see much more improvements in paralyzed left side of my body. I would truly recommend TruStem Cell therapy to anyone looking for stem cell therapy.

After my research, TruStem was the only stem cell therapy I could find in the U.S. with such extensive certification behind the doctors. I am certainly impressed that there is a neurobiologist on the team! The bedside care from the nurses during the procedure was awesome. I just think they are limited in the time they are allowed to spend with the patient at other points in the procedure. The parts orchestrated by Joe (literally all of it) were flawless. And he is a great hand-holder as well! I highly recommend TruStem for those seeking answers. This is the most qualified, reasonably priced Stem Cell facility I found!

From the moment I contacted TruStem Cell Therapy, I was extremely impressed. (I had researched and contacted several other places)I have MS. I was diagnosed over 12 years ago and as all MS patients can agree, we all have it different. I am not going to go into my medical history, but I was determined to receive stem cells and my experience with TruStem Cell Therapy was absolutely incredible. Joe Perricone, my patient advocate on the very first phone call spoke to me as if I was a family member of his own, even though I was a complete stranger, I never once felt like a stranger. He made sure that I wasn’t just a phone call or an annoyance, he treated me with the up most respect, made me feel comfortable in anything I asked for and or needed and this is way before I even became a patient. Joe, the entire staff, nurses and Dr. Rachel at this facility are hands down the most compassionate, caring, and professional people I have ever encountered. They genuinely care about you, your health and your treatment. They love what they do and It really shows. It feels really good to know that there are still doctors, nurses and their staff out there that believe in great care. If you are looking for Stem Cell Therapy, look no further. TruStem is it. I have just come home from my flawless, well planned trip and treatment from TruStem and I am home resting. From the bottom of my heart, I want to sincerely thank you TruStem for everything! . I know that I will always be truly grateful for what you have given me and may God Bless you all for doing what you do.

For what we had done we are responding very well. I regret that there was not enough stem cells harvested to do my back and feet. I have extreme low back damage and non diabetic neuropathy. I was hoping these two problems would be addressed. My neck is doing very well and painfree. for what was addressed I am pleased with the outcome. However had my low back and feet been addressed I believe I would be walking now and becoming pain free The process is magical and endearing. The staff are knowledgeable and warm . I deeply regret enough stem cells were not harvested to complete my treatment . I am 77 and this gave me back control of my bladder and colon and my scrabble game is also improved.

I was very impressed by the staff. Everyone was professional, kind & helpful. All my questions were answered promptly. My nurse Deb was a gem! She put me at ease with her calm & caring attitude. I saw results that evening! I have had a neurogenic bladder for years. I’ve been able to sleep only 2 hours at a time. The night after the treatment I slept 5 hours straight! I continue to see slow improvements in my gait and pain levels. I have already recommended this treatment to a friend. My only issue is that the hyperbaric therapy after the procedure was not addressed prior to my down payment had been made. I would have researched this issue more and planned for the additional expense when I was budgeting for the procedure. Joe was extremely helpful helping me to find a center that would do the hyperbaric treatment. Overall it was a wonderful experience. I look forward to seeing how I will continue to improve. Thank you for helping me to beat this MonSter!

First class establishment I would highly recommend it

I had stem cell therapy at TruStem on 5-7-19 for MS & was very impressed with the entire experience. My biggest difficulties are right-side weakness & foot drop and walking stamina & balance have also been a struggle. I did a lot of research & took about 7 months worth of emails back & forth with Joe before making the appointment. I wasn’t looking for a cure – but did want some symptom improvement with the right side weakness, balance & walking stamina. While it’s only been 2 weeks since my procedure, I can already see some improvements! My legs seem stronger most days & I have better balance! I also began oxygen therapy the day after returning home & feel that has been a key in making things more successful. I’ve made appointments to continue the oxygen therapy 2 times a week for the next few months. Thank you TruStem for a wonderful experience! And I can’t say enough good things about Joe! He is amazing in coordinating everything & answering questions! I’ll keep you posted – as I’m still hopeful for more improvements in the coming weeks & months! I’d highly recommend TruStem if you’re looking for a great facility!

Helene Sherman I have COPD and this is my second time with stem cell I do notice improvements with my breathing and know that I will probable see more as time goes by, If it continues I will go bck again next year Joe and the stff at Stem Cell are most encouraging kind and thoughful I have nothing but praise for the whole team

One World about you’re services. AWESOME and more then 5 stars Will give you’re company. From the beginning with the welcome to the Hotel reservation to the CARE my wife and me we had from Mr. Joe to all the stuff. I’m very impressed. It’s too early to talk about the results my Wife (stroke survivor) should feel after the procedure which been done may28/2019. If any one think about doing stem cell therapy. One place I encourage you to call. TRUSTEM cell therapy.

Very friendly, caring, professional people. Great with communication, care & organization. I would highly recommend TruStem Cell Therapy & would also seek their services in the future.

4 weeks ago today I drove to Chicago for treatment on my osteoarthritis affected knees ( a lot of Rugby) The Doc suggested I could feel results in 3 to 4 weeks. 4 days later I could walk up and down my steps without pausing. I was used to visiting the bathroom from 4 to 8 nights a night. In the second week I slept through to 7 am twice. Now I’m up twice per night. The pain in my knees has not gone altogether but around 85% of it has. Without hesitation I recommend TruStem Cell Therapy to people who are seeking medical help

I have been in constant pain with bulging disks in my neck and lower back and arthritis in both knees and hips. I went to TruStem Cell Therapy a week ago. So, far it has not been short of a miracle at least for me. I do not get up with headaches any more and all my aches and pains are much better to the extent that I do not feel the need for pain pills or my arthritis medication. TruStem is a very professional outfit and their service was impeccable.

I have returned to true stem cell 7 times,,,,IT IS NOT CHEAP, but it is worth it. I have gone to other so called stem cell therapies and I have learned the differrence between a scam and the real thing. I have had some great results from TRUE STEM CELL. I have to give my compliments to Joe , who is the Patient coordiantor and he does an outstanding job. I would give TRUE STEM CELL more rftan 5 stars if I could.

I was dealing with all the PTSD symptoms since the 1999 brain injury . Fast forward 10 years early 2009 subsequent to ongoing tremendous post traumatic headaches another set of Cat Scan, x-ray, MRI with and without dye, spinal chord tap were performed. In May 2009 I was diagnosed with MS which was brought on by the TBI. Now all of a sudden my symptoms got worse and a year later in 2010 i had to retired with disability after working for 25 years. I was devastated however i wanted to leave on my terms where people remember me for the smart civil Engineer that i was. Now all of a sudden my symptoms got worse and a year later in 2010 i had to retired with disability after working for 25 years. I was devastated however i wanted to leave on my terms where people remember me for the smart civil Engineer that i was. Between PTSD (1999) and MS (2009) I am challenged by brain glitches, cognitive disorder, mood disorder, memory issues etc one can say I had become an emotional liability. I found myself accepting the decline of my brain function issues as years went by. Fast forward 10 years in 2019 I found myself faced with a issue unlike any so far. Over and above brain issues I was also maneuvering my days through disc issues along various cervical and lumbar regions. Subsequent to 7 months of agony the neurological pain on my sciatic nerve kept getting worse and had me using a cane which was not really helping because. My symptoms were such that i could get no relief even while sitting, standing, walking, laying down etc and I saw myself in a wheelchair in the near future. I decided to go to my neurologist and we conducted lumbar MRI. I was no stranger to most of the diagnosis however the demyelination of the nerve between L5 and S1. It will was determined that this was the reason for the ongoing neurological issues on my right leg. This really solidified my scare and I was getting depressed more and more. The thought of being in a wheelchair was getting me depressed. My husband sent me a ticket to Texas where he was working on fixing our rental houses. I decided to go even if I had to use a wheelchair at the airport. After seeing my suffering combined with depression that had a grip of me my husband realized that I was going downhill pretty fast. He suggested I look up stem cell treatment which I did. Fast forward a month and I was on my way to Chicago to do just that get Stem Cell treatment. I didn’t know what and how all this will be done but I was hopeful and & excited at the idea that my own stem cell could treat my autoimmune disorders. I knew there is nothing to loose if it doesn’t work I had made peace knowing that a wheelchair could be my next mode of transportation. I am a true optimist and in my mind I knew this is going to work. Three days later I was on my way home subsequent to a successful treatment. On November 19, 2019 the Treatment went without any complication. After just 2 1/2 hours my fate was in the hand of my very own stem cells. I am so happy with the results.two days afterwards I was walking without a cane and pain. My brain functions had improved dramatically my speech (people could understand me), my cognitive function my emotions all had improved. My friends said I was glowing my response was when you can wake up without pain and can do things without being challenged by depression just uplifts you and the result is the glow. This wouldn’t have been possible without my husband and the entire TrueStem professionals. Within 2 days of treatment my brain glitches, cognitive disorder, mood disorder, memory issues, and more were a symptom from the past. My brain felt as if it was born again. My brain was firing on all cylinders I truly felt young again not just mentally but physically as well. It has been 3 weeks subsequent to the treatment and my health keeps getting better one day at a time. All this wouldn’t have been possible without my husband and the entire TrueStem professionals.

I have Multiple Sclerosis and received my own stem cells through TruStem Cell. When I went to TruStem Cell for TruStem Cell Therapy, I was walking with a cane and the assistance of my husband and walking was very labored. I had very little energy and stamina. Since I received my stem cells, I am now able to go out on my own and use a cane only when I am by myself. I have a lot more energy by the end of the day. I am able to stand for longer periods and am more alert. I believe that I will continue to improve each day. I followed the instructions for Pre-Opt. and Post-Opt. given to me by TruStem Cells which I believe gave me the best opportunity for improvement. I would recommend this facility to any one looking for a chance to improve their health situation. All the Staff at TruStem are very professional and treated me with Patience and understanding. I am grateful the I received caring support through the many questions I had.

This may be lengthy but please give it a chance if you are considering a stem-cell procedure. Let me begin w/ a ‘short’ history. Dx 13 yrs ago w/ RRMS. 13 yrs later, walker and wheelchair. My friend referred me to TruStem and the new story in my life begins. From the 1st contact, I was treated as if I was the only person in the queue. Once in Chicago, a black car whisked me to a very nice Sheraton where I was also treated as royalty. Once meeting my rep., (Mark), he, and the entire TruStem team were extremely warm, comforting and calming. Procedure itself was shorter than anticipated and I was out the door well w/in 5 hrs. Once home, I slept for the following 2 days. After any procedure like this, there will be painful recovery time but I will say that w/in 1 week, I was in my walker more than my wheelchair and my ‘drop foot’ is albeit gone after about 1 1/2 months in addition to slightly feeling my leg muscles after 8 years of nothing! That’s HUGE people! This clinic has the most innovative, advanced, professional, comforting and empathetic staff one could ask for. If you are contemplating stem-cells for ANY reason, I highly recommend you contact them first!

Very caring, reassuring people. Put all my concerns to rest.

Amazing experience, the procedure was painless and went well. Dr Rachel is amazing, as well as all the staff. It is too soon to tell the results, as I am second day post treatment, with little pain in the back( stem cell extraction site) and knees( stem cell injection site) but I would do the procedure again if I had to

Great people and service. I feel so much stronger and energetic. I am starting to stand and plan to be walking soon. I highly recommend this treatment and to get it done at TruStem Cell. Very satisfying and pleasant experience

I was diagnosed with MS and heard about Tru Stem Cell by doing a web search. I saw some immediate results and have seen some small improvements over time. My balance is almost back to normal, I can now take the stairs, and I can lift my arm above my head which I wasn’t able to do before! I recommend anyone suffering with any of the conditions the treat to get it done!
