A. Farshchian M.D., Medical Director, The Center for Regenerative Medicine

The Center for Regenerative Medicine has been on the cutting edge of new technology for the non-surgical treatments of Arthritis. Arthritis is umbrella term that describes more than 100 inflammatory diseases of the joints include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis. RA is a common chronic disease that affects about 1% of the world population. The prevalence of RA in the US, based on rates of RA from a 1995 Minnesota study and 2005 Census data, is currently estimated at approximately 1.29 million people or 0.6% of the population. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention March 2017 Vital Signs announced data estimating that 54.4 million U.S. adults suffer from arthritis - equating to about 25% of the population. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability, and causes pain, aching, stiffness and swelling of the joints. The most common types are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, and fibromyalgia. By 2040, an estimated 78 million (26%) U.S. adults ages 18 years or older are projected to have doctor-diagnosed arthritis, according to The American College of Rheumatology.

Starting this summer, The Center for Regenerative Medicine in conjunction with Heal the Earth Through the Arts Foundation and American Association of Stem Cell physicians pledges to offer Pro Bono treatments to RA patients in need to a patient in need. The Patients will be chosen at the discretion of Dr. Farshchian and The Center for Regenerative Medicine.

Since 2017, Heal the Earth through the Arts Foundation was formed to stimulate, promote and develop the interest of the general public in the arts, specifically by bringing the arts to areas and population centers that are not adequately served. It will also be a platform for up and coming artists to showcase their "arts" and help fund raise awareness about the environment, the Arts, and the Earth. Funds raised will then be awarded to chosen charities like The Miami Rescue Mission for the Homeless, among others.

The Center for Regenerative Medicine was established in 1999 under the direction of Dr. Alimorad Farshchian. Dr. Farshchian, a Regenerative medicine specialist and a pioneer in stem cell therapies explained his desire to help. "Many patients have financial difficulties feel they have no options because insurance does not cover many alternative therapies and or regenerative medicine options like mine. So it is with great honor that I will help as many as I can . Said Dr. Alimorad Farshchian.

Dr. Farshchian, the medical director for The Center for Regenerative Medicine is best known for coining the term "Orthopedic Regenerative Medicine and Neurogenesis ." He has over 18 years of experience in the field of Regenerative medicine, helping thousands suffering from Arthritis and immunological diseases.  For more information, please visit www.arthritisusa.net.

The American Association of Stem Cell Physicians (AAOSCP) is an organization created by Dr. Farshchian and colleagues, to advance research and the development of therapeutics in regenerative medicine, including diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease related to or occurring within the human body. Secondarily, the AAOSCP aims to serve as an educational resource for physicians, scientists, and the public in diseases that can be caused by physiological dysfunction that ameliorate medical treatment.
