Now Offering Stem Cell Storage
Through Our Partnership with Personalized Stem Cells
In 2024, San Diego Orthobiologics Medical Group partnered with Personalized Stem Cells (PSC) to provide our patients with the opportunity to store their own stem cells for future use. This partnership enhances our regenerative medicine offerings by allowing patients to store and expand their stem cells for personalized, future treatments.
Why Store Your Stem Cells?
An Adjunct to Same-Day Therapy
Many of our patients benefit from same-day stem cell procedures, which utilize bone marrow or adipose (fat) tissue to provide a regenerative boost. These therapies can be effective for treating orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions.
Stem cell storage ensures you have a larger supply of your own cells available when you need them.
Here’s how they compare:
Stem Cell Source & Method
Same-Day Bone Marrow or Adipose
PSC Culture-Expanded Stem Cells
Typical Stem Cell Yield
100,000 to 1,000,000 cells
~18 million cells per dose
With storage, you don’t need to undergo repeat extractions. Your stored cells are expanded in an FDA-compliant cGMP lab and cryopreserved—ready for use when you need them most.
Step-by-Step: How Stem Cell Storage Works
- Consultation at San Diego Orthobiologics
Meet with Dr. Chris Rogers, Dr. Edmund Evangelista, or a member of our team to determine if you’re a good candidate for stem cell storage. We’ll review your goals, health history, and answer your questions. - Lipoaspiration Procedure
A simple outpatient procedure is performed to collect a small amount of fat tissue—typically from the abdomen or flanks – comfortably and safely at our medical center. - Cryopreservation (StemPreserve™)
Your fat tissue is shipped to PSC’s FDA-compliant cGMP lab, where it is processed and preserved for future expansion. - Culture Expansion (StemReady™)
When you’re ready—or if you select the StemReady™ program immediately—PSC isolates and expands your stem cells over a 60-day period into high-dose batches (~18 million cells per dose).
The StemPreserve™ & StemReady™ Programs
A Smart Investment in Your Health

The Advantage of Storage
More Doses, More Options
Stem cell storage gives you multiple, ready-to-use doses for future care. Whether you’re planning additional regenerative treatments or exploring newly approved therapies in the future, your own cells will be ready.
By storage today, you’re taking control of your long-term health strategy and maximizing your future treatment options.
