Diagnosed with hip arthritis? You might be asking the big question: "Is surgery my only option?"

If you’ve been told to just take ibuprofen and "wait until it gets worse," we have news for you: "Wait and see" might be the worst advice for your joints. 🛑

While you are waiting, arthritis is progressing. And common quick fixes like cortisone shots can actually speed up cartilage loss over time.

But there is a middle ground between "doing nothing" and "getting a hip replacement."

In our new blog post, Dr. Ferrell breaks down how we use Regenerative Medicine (like PRP and Adipose therapy) to treat the "Treatment Gap."

Don't wait until you are "bone on bone." See how we help patients stay active and keep their natural joints longer.

Look at that haul! 👍👍

We are absolutely thrilled to share the results of this year’s Toys for Tots drive. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we were able to fill these two massive bags to the brim with toys for deserving children.

This photo really says it all—it was a massive success.

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to every single patient, staff member, and local partner who took the time to drop off a toy. Your contributions are going to bring so much joy to families across the greater DMV area this holiday season.

Giving back to the communities we serve is at the core of who we are at ROSM. Thank you for helping us make a difference.

Today is Giving Tuesday! 💙
Today is Giving Tuesday - a day dedicated to making an impact.

Every day in our clinic, patients tell us how regenerative medicine has decreased their pain, restored mobility, and changed their lives. But one question remains:

“When will insurance begin covering these treatments?” 🤔

Regenerative medicine is effective but for many, it’s still financially out of reach. 😔

This is why we founded the Orthobiologics Research Initiative (ORI): to expand access to evidence-based orthobiologic care and make treatment possible for all patients, not just those who can afford it.

Your Giving Tuesday support will:

🔬 Fund research needed to make regenerative medicine mainstream and insurance-covered

🤝 Provide cutting-edge therapies to underinsured patients at no cost

🚀 Advance the future of musculoskeletal medicine

Join us this Giving Tuesday in shaping the future of care. Support ORI today! 👇

From all of us at ROSM, thank you for being part of our journey. Wishing you and your loved ones a happy, healthy, and restorative Thanksgiving.

💡 Thinking about regenerative medicine? Before choosing a clinic, it is important to understand what pricing can reveal about the quality of care you will receive.

ROSM just published a new guide that breaks down why the lowest price is not always the best option and how factors like imaging guidance, biologic concentration, provider training, and follow-up care all influence your outcome.

If you want to understand what you are really paying for and how to evaluate the quality behind a PRP, BMAC, or adipose-derived treatment, this article is a must read.

👉 Read the full guide: https://rosm.org/regenerative-medicine-pricing-guide/

Learn why the cheapest regenerative medicine treatments aren’t always the best. ROSM explains what drives PRP and stem cell therapy pricing and why quality and precision lead to better healing outcomes.
