Before Your Consultation at Native Stem Cell Clinics

Your first consultation is an important part of determining whether regenerative medicine is right for you. Preparing ahead of time ensures we can provide the most accurate and personalized recommendations.

01

What to Bring to Your Visit

Please bring the following items to your consultation: Recent X-rays or MRI scans (within the past year if available); Medical history; List of medications and supplements; Prior treatment records; Questions or goals you would like to discuss. If you don’t have imaging, we can assist you in obtaining updated studies.

02

What Happens During the Consultation

During your appointment, you will meet with Dr. Kevin T. Crawford, who will: Review your medical history; Perform a physical examination; Evaluate your imaging; Explain your diagnosis; Discuss whether PRP or ReVivaStem® is appropriate; Outline a realistic treatment plan. You will receive an honest assessment of expected results and whether regenerative therapy can help your specific condition.

03

Questions You May Want to Ask

Am I a good candidate for stem cell therapy or PRP? Will regenerative therapy delay or prevent surgery? How long will my recovery take? What results should I realistically expect? How many injections will I need? What will my total cost be? We encourage open communication and want you to feel confident about your decision.

04

When Regenerative Therapy Is Not Recommended

We may not recommend biologic treatment if: Your joint degeneration is too advanced; Your imaging indicates severe structural damage; You have an active infection; You are not medically cleared for a procedure. In these situations, we will guide you to the most appropriate medical option.

Dr. Crawford has treated more than 100,000 patients for orthopedic conditions across Metro Detroit and West Michigan. He brings a unique blend of surgical training and scientific rigor—holding bachelor’s degrees in chemistry and chemical engineering, a master’s in chemical engineering, and a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine.

He began studying regenerative orthobiologics over 15 years ago and founded Native Stem Cell Clinics in 2016 to expand access to stem cell therapy and PRP for appropriate candidates. Outside of medicine, he stays active—skiing, golf, tennis, cycling and hockey—so he understands the goals of patients who want to move without pain.
