Dr. Ignatios Papas, DO

Dr. Pappas was wonderful! He and his staff were there to walk me through it every step of the way!I feel so much better!

I was evaluated and my condition was described in detail. I engaged in one treatment. My results were terrific. I no longer feel discomfort.

Very thorough consultation to address all major areas of concerns as well as a very comprehensive approach clearly explained. Provider spent ample time listening to and evaluating in order to come up with best possible treatment plan to ultimately bring relief for my specific areas of chronic pain. Superb knowledge and explanations!

Dr. Papas and Regenexx staff are first class in all respects; notwithstanding Regenexx PT as well. Having had debilitating/chronic injuries to the right hip soft tissues and subsequent biomechanical related issues to both knees/feet; Dr. Papas, performed an initial thorough physical exam by means of a “hands on” approach, ultrasound, and explaining the findings of my injuries. Dr. Papas sat down and explained the findings and his recommendations to proceed. Dr. Papas patiently joined in with full discussion; talking with me, and not “at me.” There never was any rush in these discussions. Enough can not be said about ultrasound in the hands of a true physician such as Dr. Papas. My injuries were severe, chronic, & multifaceted, consequently, requiring 4 visits of SCP/PRP to the right hip structures. After one year of interval SCP/PRP procedures/recommended PT work, I now have my life back. Thanks to Regenexx and Dr. Papas. Where possible, avoid surgery, seek regenerative medicine!

My experience today was great. I received excellent and quality service as usual. Regenexx's care is second to none and I will recommend their services to everyone.

My visit was awesome. Dr.Papas was very indept about my injuries and how the procedure can help.

Did comprehensive and exam. Spent a lot of time with me and answered all questions.

I recently had knee and hip procedures done by Dr. Papas. He took special time and care to walk me through every step of the process before during the procedures. He and his staff are absolutely first class. I will be returning to resolve other issues in the future. I will highly recommend he and Regenexx to everyone i know.

They meet all my expectations. Highly recomend this service.

amazing doctor!!! you will not find a doctor like DR. PAPAS!!!

I had stem cell and prp for a torn rotator cuff 2 months ago. When I saw Dr Papas for the initial consultation I was very impressed. I was given a very thorough orthopedic exam. I had seen two orthopedic surgeons before this visit, all they did was look at my MRI and said surgery was my only option. I am a nurse so I knew there were other options, it was just finding the right one. I work with a doctor who does stem cell occasionally but I still felt more comfortable with Dr. Papas. If I had the surgery I would just now be getting out of a sling. I have been able to do almost everything after about the 2 week mark. I am now able to lift weights and I am very happy with my progress and lack of pain. I would highly recommend Dr. Papas.

Dr. Papas was extremely helpful in reviewing my shoulders. My goal was just to get a extensive understanding of my situation so that I could make the best decision for myself. I may actually not do the procedure as my situation is severe enough that it may not help. Nonetheless he was HONEST with me not trying to sell me on a procedure, rather helped me by making me understand my situation. Thank you again

The complete process and experience beginning to end was excellent! office staff and PT staff were courteous and helpful. I never felt rushed or that I wouldn't get their undivided time and attention...

Honest and dertailed explanation of every procedure and what to expect. I feel so well taken care of. So glad I did not do the total knee relacement.

everyone was very nice and understood my concerns. Not pushy at all about getting the procedure. answered all my questions and reassured me with the quality of care I"ll be getting. Albe, Ana, Cynthia, Karen and Eric are all very nice and accommodating. Dr.Papas is so nice, made me comfortable with all my needs and gave me as much time as I needed to ask him questions and there was alot!!!

When my other orthopedic said scraping surgery (& yeah, we can do stem cell but will still have to do surgery) I went home and went on Dr Mercola's website and there was a link to Regenexx! Dr Papas gave a thorough evaluation and spent time with me to make sure i understood the whole procedure. I couldn't be more pleased with the turn out!

I was a little leary about having this procedure, but after consulting with Dr. Papas and then having the stem cell procedure, I am extremely happy with the results.

We did our research and came here specifically because of the reputation of Dr. Centeno and the physicians here in Tampa. There is no question that a center with MDs and an on-site lab is the safest and most successful way to approach stem cell therapy. We felt we have definitely found this with the Tampa Regenexx group. Looking forward to scheduling our procedures.

I came to see Dr Pappas today & was given the most thorough orthopedic exam I have ever had. He identified my complex injuries with sincere concern as well as answered all my questions. A truly magnificent doctor & staff here!! I am looking forward to feeling better with help from this clinic

I am a physical therapist and I highly recommend Dr. Papas to my patients, and to anyone else who is considering natural healing for their joint pain. He performs the most thorough orthopedic exam I have ever seen from a physician. Through this exam, he develops a clear understanding of the severity of the condition and the impact on your life and daily function. He is extremely informative, communicative, and professional. He thoroughly discusses what options are available, including pros and cons, and is very straightforward about the stem cell  procedures, and the expected results. He truly has a passion for improving lives. It is definitely worth a visit to see him.
