Regenerative orthopedics is the practical, evidence-grounded sibling of stem cell hype. Patients arrive looking for an alternative to cortisone, an alternative to surgery, or a bridge between conservative care and arthroplasty. SleekAI is configured to meet that intent honestly. It reads your published procedure pages from wp_posts and the per-joint pricing in wp_postmeta and explains what PRP (platelet-rich plasma), BMAC (bone marrow aspirate concentrate), micronized adipose tissue, and prolotherapy do without inflating expectations.

The bot distinguishes leukocyte-poor from leukocyte-rich PRP and explains when each is typically used (tendon vs joint), names the ultrasound-guided injection workflow, and walks through the cost stack: PRP knee at $750 to $1,200 per injection, BMAC knee at $4,500 to $6,500, micronized adipose at $5,500 to $7,500, and prolotherapy at $400 to $600 per session. It is explicit that insurance does not cover orthobiologics and explains why.

What it never does is promise cartilage regrowth, claim arthroplasty avoidance, or steer the patient away from a surgical consult that is actually appropriate. The default prompt refuses outcome promises, requires an MRI within the last 12 months for joint procedures, and books the physician evaluation as the gate. Conversations log with model, tokens, and origin page so the medical director audits each month for overpromise drift and cost-stack accuracy.

Regenerative orthopedics is the part of regenerative medicine with the most published evidence and the most overstated marketing. PRP for knee osteoarthritis has multiple randomized trials supporting 6 to 12 month outcomes versus cortisone. BMAC has a smaller and more variable evidence base.

Micronized adipose is in active study. Patients have read some of this in cleaned-up form on stem cell clinic sites that conflate categories. SleekAI keeps the categories separate the way your physician would.

PRP is platelets, not stem cells. BMAC is autologous bone marrow concentrate with mesenchymal cells and growth factors. Micronized adipose is processed adipose, often via a device like Lipogems.

The bot explains each in its own terms and refuses to slide into stem cell hype to close a booking. Pricing is per-joint because the procedures actually cost different amounts in the knee versus the shoulder versus the hip versus the spine, and patients deserve a realistic range before the consult. Insurance does not cover orthobiologics and the bot is upfront.

The MRI gate keeps the consult productive: the physician arrives at the evaluation with imaging in hand and a realistic conversation begins. The medical director audits monthly for overpromise drift and cost-stack accuracy. Compliance, scope, and patient trust move together.
