Please do not go waste $25,000 on stem cells for MS. I went a little over a year ago. They were all about helping me. Once the treatment was over they never followed up with me and if they did it was a survey. The stem cells did not do anything. Actually after the very first injection I got off the table and my hamstring started giving out on me and I’ve never had that before ever. That lasted for almost a year. I Do not think it’s ironic that it happened minutes after the injection. I went through three days of this. Months went by waiting for results. Nothing happened. My doctor from Duke University told me not to do it because these types of stem cells do not work for MS. But I didn’t listen to her. Do not go to this place for MS. It does not work. If anyone has any questions message me privately and I will send you proof that I went with email receipts.

I can only share my experience. I did the autoimmune protocol & it did not work & made me worse. Felt good for a week, but crashed my immunity such that within a month I started picking up every infection under the sun & developed new allergies. It was like my immunity had been wiped out. That was the risk i took. I’ve spoken to people online who it has worked for who shout from rooftops, but i think there’s just as many who are embarrassed to speak up/leave reviews because they’ve wasted their money and future harming their health. I’m only doing it now to help others. The thing most disappointing was lack of professionalism, because that is something within their control. They gave me conflicting advice on whether this treatment works with my existing medication & flip flopped on the matter after i had already paid my deposit and made travel plans - with the benefit of hindsight that should have been a warning not to go. Also Didn’t follow up with the supplements until a month late. Accounting people were not very helpful either. When i asked for advice about all the infections i was getting after treatment they simply said it’s nothing to do with treatment - as$ covering. The hotel was nice but that was about it in terms of positives. If you feel like rolling the dice because you’re desperate & have nothing to lose, don’t go. You don’t know how much you have until you lose it.

My mom (66yrs old) had been diagnosed with autoimmune disease in the summer of 2017, and the symptoms of arthritis rapidly evolved. By the end of 2018 she could not lift her arms above her sholders; she could barely close her hands upon waking up; she had a hard time getting out of bed, doing so under a lot of discomfort. It was very difficult for me to see her life change so rapidly. I had heard about Dr. Riordan through some podcasts and decided to apply for the treatment on my mom's behalf. After submitting exam results, the treatment was approved and we scheduled for to travel to Panama June 10, 2019 to begin treatment. She received 3 doses of 40M stem cells via IV during 3 days of treatment. Immediately upon finishing her treatment she felt more energy and got a lot of hope. Today is August 7th 2019 (almost 60 days post treatment), and my mom is able to lift her arms as far high as it can go without pain, her hands are no longer stiff or in pain. She can easily get out of bed, she is practically completely back to normal. She can't even believe it. It has given her so much hope. Every day she wakes up thinking the pain will return and it doesn't, we are very hopeful the results will continue to improve and that she never has to deal with the pain that she dealt with for nearly 2 years before her treatment. The clinic is very clean and organized, the staff is extremely attentive. The doctor stays with you during the entire time treatment is being administered and answers any questions you might have. I highly recommend this place for anyone who can treated with Mesenchymal Stem Cells. It changed my mom's life which means it changed my life. I'm forever grateful!

Took Autistic 3 yr old grandson in 2018. Absolutely amazing results. Very professional clinic with years of experience and research with stem cells for Autism. I went myself in 2021 for autoimmune rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia. I am pain free for the first time in 40:years. Stem cells have changed my life. If I could give this clinic 10 stars I would. A very professional medical facility. The staff is great and so helpful.

My name is Liz. I am 69 years old. I would like to describe how incompetence can alter a seemingly very important anti-aging stem cell treatment into a painful experience. From March 23-March 25, 2022, I attended the Stem Cell Institute in Panama City. The first two intravenous treatments were done using major arm veins in both arms. Twenty minute injections did not produce any pain or discomfort. The third treatment, as the nurse could not tap a major vein she entered the much smaller vein on the top of my right hand. It is well known that blood flow through smaller veins requires a much longer time for injection. If pressure of the injection is too high it will damage all the veins and capillaries coming into the major veins. This is exactly what has happened to me. Seven days after the last injection my right arm is still grossly swollen and painful. I need assistance in dressing and cannot raise my arm above my head.

Well I'm two weeks in from my long journey from Thailand where I live and Panama where I had my Stem Cell Treatment. When was appraised by the clinic they informed me my severe osteoarthritic hip would not repair itself but I would get pain relief and flexibility back to that leg. The real bonus would be to my left hip which is mildly arthritic and the stem cells would stop or slow down the degeneration. So despite the clinics open honest opinion I was not deterred and booked and paid for my treatment. The clinic is extremely professional and a Dr sits in on all the treatments and supervises. Part of my treatment was a injection of 5 million cells into each hip with ultrasound guidance. This was done by a specialist orthopedic surgeon in a private hospital still under the guidance of one of the clinics physicians who was sitting 1 metre away from me and watching the screen as the needles went into each hip. Another (bulldust) reviewer has said the clinic tells you nothing about how many stem cells you get etc etc, that's a fake review, every step is documented and passed on to you and given to you on your last day of treatment in a report.Also I noted at the private hospital whilst waiting for my treatment the Stem Cells would be delivered by courier for each patient, the cells would be passed to the clinics MD who would examine the data logger inside the special bag to make sure the temperature was within their guidelines and he would sign receipt for the cells. I have nothing but praise for this clinic and its staff and I will not hesitate to return in the future if need be.

I had an excellent experience at the Stem Cell Institute. They are very professional and run a excellent institute. From the pick up from the airport, to the great doctors, staff and office manager. I was treated wonderfully and lucky to have these cutting edge stem cells in my body. I talked too many patiences that we're seeing great results. I will definitely be returning and I would 100% recommend the Stem Cell Institute to everyone!

I brought my autistic daughter there this year and it was the best thing I've ever done for her. No more meltdowns (NOT ONE!), no more self hitting, little more speech, less seizures and over all a huge improvement in quality of life. When I can afford it, we will be coming back and hope for equally great results.

This is the most amazing place I have ever been to have StemCell done!!! You see him an amputee with multiple injuries including more than 47 surgeries and procedures on my neck and spine and used to be on 21 different prescription medication and because of this place I take zero prescription medications as of today and zero pain. What have you got to lose? Pain !!! God bless these doctors.

Outstanding Experience, Amazing Results for my autistic child. After treating my son with Autologous Stem Cells via an Expanded Access Protocol at Duke University Medical Center in the US, we quickly saw improvements in my son. I reached out on some of the Social Media forums to see if any other parents had been to Panama AFTER receiving cells at Duke. Several parents reached out right away, and gave me confidence in proceeding with donor cells in Panama. We are now six months post cells. My sons ability to attend has improved, his receptive and expressive language have improved, he eats more foods. I have ZERO regrets, and have a deposit down for an additional treatment when the Covid-19 restrictions ease. Stem Cells DO NOT WORK FOR EVERY CHILD, but they have been AMAZING for MY child. It is expensive, to be sure, but if they DO work, you will not regret it!

Attila V I had a treatments and a very nice trips to Panama in 2016 and 2017 for around $60,000 with traveling etc However do not waste $30,000 on stem cells for MS in stem cells institute. I went the first time I had some improvement for a year and the second time nothing happened except I got a flue from my dr and second $30,000 out of the window . The Hilton hotel stuff was very nice and 5 star. Once the treatment was over they never followed up with me and if they did it was a survey. The second stem cells did not do anything it was a placebo , felt like salt water. Months years went by waiting for results, Nothing happened. Do not go to this place for MS, It does not work. The original stem cells institute was different but since a private company took everything over and now all over for profit!!!

I went on November 8, 2021 to get a three day treatment. The entire experience was amazing. From the time they pick me up from the airport to dropping me off at the hotel. the hotel was incredible and the food was amazing. The stem cell Institute is connected in the hotel so we never had to leave the hotel it was safe and secure it was clean everyone was friendly and professional. From my first treatment I felt better And I would highly recommend this for anybody who wants to improve their body.

We have made 3 trips to Panama for my daughter to receive stem cells for her Autism. Each trip has exceeded all expectations! From airport pick up the whole week there until drop off! The gains we have seen after each visit have been life changing for my daughter!!! If anyone is on the fence about going, I absolutely say GO!!!

Our son is 12 and has received stem cells at the Stem Cell Institute since he was 5. The Stem Cell Institute has immeasurably changed our lives. It is difficult to specify one or two changes because it is truly everything. He communicates clearly, wants to go out and try new things, isn't anxious anymore, has lots of friends, and he is in a gifted/talented program. I cannot imagine our lives without the Stem Cell Institute and we have fallen in love with Panama, too. We go back every year or two around Christmas and watch the Christmas parade and enjoy the warm weather! Thank you so much for all you do!

It was nothing but a positive experience with positive results. The most professional and efficient medical facility that I ever had experience with. The results were not instantaneous but over a few months I started seeing the positive results. It treated conditions that I was experiencing that were not the main focus on treatment. Without going into details, I started seeing positive results in tests and bloodwork. I was fortunate and blessed to have Dr. Díaz and our doctors in the US could take lessons from him on patient care and concern. I am considering returning for another treatment.

I had 4 lesions on my brain, I had no quality of life without steroids. I visited the Stem Cell Institute in 2014 & 2016 and the lesions are gone. I have had a few MRI and different doctors reading the films, they have all told me that I have no lesions. The doctors don’t no how to explain it especially when they see the before and after MRI’s. I call it a miracle!!! I can’t thank Dr.Riordan and his team enough for giving me my life back.

Life changing treatments provided by professional and caring staff. The Stem Cell Institute really are leaps and bounds ahead of other providers I have researched. It is unimaginable the results that I have received. Evan repairing collateral issues that were unexpected while treating the main problems. So many wonderful success stories when speaking with other patients as well.

Did not do anything. Way too much money for unproven treatments; could not answer specific questions pertaining to how many stem cells I was receiving. They seemed to be most happy when they saw my credit card cleared for the payment. Stay. Away.

The gains my son has made have been remarkable! He received stem cell treatment for autism and we have gone for 2 rounds. After the first round, there was an increase in speech and cognitive awareness which has been wonderful. He started asking more questions and was able to continue with conversations even more. He also started playing board games with us which he never wanted to do before. After the second round, he started showing signs of being able to learn how to swim. He didn't even want to stick his head under water before and now he is jumping at full force into the pool! We are already planning on going for a third round. Plus, the staff at the institute are wonderful. Very professional and friendly. I will never know how they got my son to take a butterfly needle for the IV. But they managed with NO PROBLEMS!! It was amazing. He used to scream at the top of his lungs before when we tried to draw blood once. Well since the institute, that has changed. He does great with the IV thanks to the staff. They really are a fantastic and experienced crew. Thank you Stem Cell Institute for helping my son come out of that cloud and live his life more! And thank you to the genius of Neil Riordan. Not enough thank you's in the world for you.

This treatment has helped our son tremendously. It has corrected his sleep issues. He went from sleeping 3 hours a night to 9 hours a night. His meltdowns are less frequent and shorter in duration. His cognitive abilities have sky rocketed and are much closer to normal now. No negative reactions to receiving the cells. Highly recommend this treatment for ones who are on the severe side of autism.

I’ve done research all over the world, including Sweden Mexico, Canada but I don’t think anybody is as well geared for stem therapy. As of right now is Panama. They basically make a stem cells in the lab MSC that bring it to your life injected in your body, you’re good to go 66 I play with 21-year-olds soccer sometimes they get surprised I highly recommend this to anybody over age 50. Even if you’re good shape get it done it done done

Cutting edge science. Highly professional, caring and warm staff. Beautiful, clean and organized facility. Great experience. So happy I chose to do this.

We are so greatful that we discovered SCT for our son with Autism. After each treatment of stem cells our son has made vast progression in verbal communication, and reasoning. The staff both medical & support at the clinic are super friendly, kind & compassionate. The doctors answer any questions you have respectfully.

I’ve had 4 treatments so far at the Stem Cell institute in Panama City for various joint/arthritis related issues and travel from the UK to go there. The doctors and nurses are very dedicated and professional and I will return for a 5th treatment later this year as I find it beneficial on many levels.

I highly recommend using this treatment and facility! The staff and doctors are the best, and the experience was hugely helpful. I'm most grateful!

The services were first class, from the pickup from the airport, the seamless stay at The Hilton, the stem cell treatment itself, the Covid testing, to the departure ride to the airport. The concierge service they offer is awesome and treatment is awesome!

The Stem Cell Institute has saved my life. I have severe ankloysing spondylitis, cholinergic urticaria, sacrillitis, and IBS. I was almost wheel chair bound, and frozen completely solid from inflammation in my joints. Along with sever pain including full body spasms with every movement, and bump. I still have my struggles every day, but I am thankful I am not where I was. I still need a cane to get around, but I can live a semi normal life with my family. I am also lucky I had a generous family that helped me get 4 treatments. Considering the cost of care in the US for medicine like humira (which I refuse to take) this is a way cheaper option. It is hard to find a way to come up with the lump sum, but is worth the effort to get it. This is a low risk more natural treatment that came with only upsides and practically no side effects in my experience. I got tired the days of the treatment, and a little bogged down when I had the stem cells were working in my body, but not in a bad way. I could always feel a positive difference in the first hour of getting stem cells. I would go every six months for the rest of my life if that was something I could afford. It makes such a huge positive difference, and I think with enough time and treatments I would probably go into remission, and maybe gain most of my mobility back. It has made my cholinergic urticaria go into remission, and has cured a dog allergy of mine. I was on the verge of dying, and this treatment has saved my life. I can't be as active, and go hiking like I used to. But my quality of life is so much better now. I am actually happy again. I'm also thankful that since I haven't had treatment in a year I haven't fallen backwards in progress. Finances are too tight as of now, but I am hoping in the next few years I can keep getting treatment. Anyone that needs help from their physical prisons need to seriously consider this treatment. I will come back as much as I can when I can afford it.

They take the best care of my daughter, and we see gains with every treatment. We will continue to entrust her care with the Stem Cell Institute.
