Stem Cell Therapy in Scottsdale, AZ

Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal cell therapy at our Scottsdale flagship, serving patients across the Valley.

Why Scottsdale patients choose this therapy

Our Scottsdale clinic has delivered regenerative protocols for over seven years, and stem cell therapy is where most Valley patients begin: frequently for knees, hips, and shoulders, and for chronic or autoimmune conditions where inflammation is the through-line. Patients travel from Phoenix, Paradise Valley, Gilbert, and across the Valley for it.

What is Stem Cell Therapy?

Stem cell therapy at Nascent Health uses umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal cells, from screened and consented donor tissue, to support the body’s own repair processes. It is designed for patients dealing with injury, chronic or autoimmune conditions, or anyone seeking to support tissue repair at the cellular level.

Who is a candidate?

Candidacy is determined at consultation from your history and comprehensive lab work, not assumed. These are the patterns we see most often in Scottsdale.

  • Injuries that have not resolved with conservative care
  • Chronic and autoimmune conditions driven by inflammation, such as eczema, psoriasis, or lupus
  • Joint, tendon, and soft-tissue concerns: knees, shoulders, hips
  • Patients seeking to support recovery capacity and tissue repair
  • Anyone told to "wait and see" or to manage symptoms indefinitely

What the process looks like

  1. 01

    Consultation and workup

    A full history, goals conversation, and comprehensive lab analysis. Imaging is reviewed where relevant. This is where candidacy is decided: honestly.

  2. 02

    Protocol design

    Dr. Southern designs the protocol around your biology: cell type, route of delivery, dose, and whether exosome or ozone therapy belongs alongside it.

  3. 03

    Treatment

    Delivered in-clinic in Boise or Scottsdale. Most protocols are completed in a single visit, with the appointment length depending on the route of delivery.

  4. 04

    Follow-up and optimization

    Structured follow-up with repeat biomarker work where indicated, so the protocol is adjusted based on your response rather than a template.

What patients say

Dr. Southern was very thorough in her approach to my health issues and resolved a chronic pain issue I had been dealing with for at least 3 years. No other doctor I had dealt with could provide me the long term relief that she has. She is amazing and researches your entire health picture for the answers. Can’t recommend her enough!

Stem Cell Therapy in Scottsdale, common questions

Where do the stem cells come from?

Umbilical cord tissue donated after healthy, full-term births with donor consent, not embryonic tissue. Sourcing and screening documentation is available for you to review at consultation.

Is stem cell therapy FDA-approved?

No, and any clinic telling you otherwise is misinforming you. The FDA has approved certain cord-blood-derived products for a narrow set of blood and immune disorders; the mesenchymal cell therapies used in regenerative medicine, including ours, are not FDA-approved products. What we can tell you is what we do use: cells from screened donor tissue, donated after healthy full-term births with consent, with documentation available for you to review. Dr. Southern will walk you through what the evidence supports for your situation, and what it does not.

How many treatments will I need?

It depends entirely on what is being addressed and how you respond. Many protocols are a single treatment with structured follow-up; others are staged. You will know the plan before you commit to anything.

Does insurance cover it?

No. Regenerative therapies are not reimbursed by insurance, which is precisely why they are not offered in conventional practices.

How long has Nascent Health been in Arizona?

Over seven years, with more than 4,000 patients treated. Scottsdale is our flagship clinic and where the practice was established.
