Care given with real warmth and professionalism. It's reassuring to place your trust in Dr. Hans's hands.
A clear diagnosis and a detailed treatment plan. Excellent command of his specialty.
Very professional. He went straight to the problem and gave us real confidence in the plan to improve my health.
Advanced umbilical cord stem cell therapies (UC-MSCs) cultured by GenNova in México, delivered to Tijuana or Cancún on the day of treatment.
Screened, donor-consented MSCs cultured in México and administered at our Tijuana and Cancún clinics for orthopedic, autoimmune, and neurological protocols.
View treatments →Pluripotent Muse cells that home to damaged tissue, paired with exosomes for complex cases. Available in Tijuana and Cancún.
Muse protocols →Systemic UC-MSC infusion, dosed to body weight, for chronic inflammation, autoimmune, and neurological indications. Available in Tijuana and Cancún.
IV protocols →Cell-free signaling vesicles delivered with a cell dose or as a standalone infusion, for joints, spine, systemic, and aesthetic protocols.
Exosome protocols →How stem cell treatment in México works, from first call to follow-up.
A board-certified physician reviews your imaging, labs, and history on a private video call and confirms whether stem cell therapy fits your case.
You receive a written protocol and quote: cell type, dose, delivery route, and dates. We then set your treatment window and travel plan.
A private driver and bilingual concierge meet you at San Diego or Cancún airport and handle every transfer between airport, hotel, and clinic.
Your UC-MSC or Muse cell dose arrives from the laboratory that day. The physician administers the protocol in a private suite, with one to three days of monitoring.
When your protocol is complete we see you off. The team stays reachable 24/7, with structured outcome check-ins after you return home.
Patients treated
Across 38 countries, every case reviewed by a board certified physician.
Front Med. 2021 ↗Median return to activity
Work, sport, sleep, daily routine after a single protocol visit.
Stem Cells Transl Med. 2018 ↗Sustained at 12 months
Patients reporting maintained or improved outcomes one year after treatment.
Stem Cell Res Ther. 2020 ↗Joint and orthopedic indications (knee, hip, shoulder, spine, small joints), autoimmune and metabolic conditions, neurological cases, and longevity / vitality protocols. A physician confirms candidacy after reviewing your imaging and labs.
We use Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) from screened, consented umbilical donations. No embryonic tissue. Cells are cultured and verified for viability in our ISO accredited laboratory.
UC-MSC therapy is regulated by Mexico's COFEPRIS and is not FDA approved in the United States. Our protocols are conducted under Mexican regulatory authority by board certified physicians. We explain the regulatory landscape clearly during consultation.
Most patients report initial changes within 4 to 6 weeks and meaningful improvement at 3 to 6 months. Outcomes vary by indication, severity, and protocol. Aftercare check ins at 2, 6, and 12 weeks track progress objectively.
Pricing depends on protocol, dose, and number of sites. Single joint UC-MSC protocols typically begin in the mid five figure range. High dose IV and multi joint packages are quoted on the consult call once a physician has confirmed your plan.
A fair concern. Both clinics sit in established medical districts, in Tijuana and in Cancún's hotel zone, and we handle all ground transportation through vetted private drivers, so your route is simply airport, hotel, clinic. The vast majority of our patients travel smoothly, start to finish.
For most patients, far less than expected. Joint injections are done under ultrasound guidance with local anesthetic and typically take 20 to 40 minutes. IV protocols are a 60 to 90 minute infusion in a quiet, private room. Discomfort is usually mild and short lived. You walk out the same day.
Often, no. Many orthopedic and aesthetic protocols are designed as a single visit. Autoimmune, neurological, and longevity cases sometimes benefit from a second round at 6 to 12 months. Your physician discusses this openly during your consultation, not after you have already booked.
Usually not, but a few categories matter. NSAIDs and corticosteroids are paused before and after most cell protocols because they blunt the regenerative response. Blood thinners may need a brief hold. Immunosuppressants are reviewed case by case. We send a clear, personalized medication plan with your pre-treatment instructions, in coordination with your prescribing physician.
Pack extra. Bring noticeably more of your routine medications than your trip length requires — ideally a few extra days’ worth in your carry-on, separate from checked luggage. Flight delays, an extended monitoring stay, or border-day timing can all push your return back a day or two, and a US prescription is simplest to refill at home, so pack your full course. Keep medications in their original labeled bottles when crossing the border.
Your case manager and the broader TrueCell team stay reachable 24/7 for up to three years after treatment. We send aftercare protocols, follow up on agreed timelines, and remain available for questions, concerns, or adjustments as your case evolves. You always have a real person to talk to.
Yes, and we encourage it. Companions ride in the same private vehicle at no extra charge, are welcome at consultations and visits where appropriate, and can book a room at our partner accommodations at a reduced rate. Most patients tell us the concierge support made all the difference.
An honest answer: stem cell therapy is not a guarantee, and any clinic promising one is a clinic to walk away from. Candidacy review exists precisely to filter out the cases where the science does not support a likely benefit. For patients who proceed, we track outcomes objectively, and if response is below expectation we discuss adjuncts, a second round, or honest referral elsewhere.
Yes. We work with medical financing partners that offer monthly installment plans for qualifying patients, often with same day approval. Wire transfer, major credit cards, and HSA / FSA where eligible are also accepted. Your concierge walks through options once a protocol is confirmed.
