OUR MISSION

For almost a decade our Chicago based team of double board – certified interventional pain physicians have been developing innovative ways to treat pain, osteoarthritis and chronic pain. In their multiple clinics throughout Chicago, witnessed far too many patients become dependent on opioids after surgery. They decided to create the most effective regenerative therapy treatment options for patients that did not rely on surgery and addictive opioids.

OUR STORY

For more than a decade Dr. Darrel Saldanha, and his Chicago based team of double board – certified interventional pain physicians have been developing innovative ways to treat joint pain, osteoarthritis and chronic pain. In their multiple clinics throughout Chicago, they saw far too many patients become dependent on opioids after surgery. In many cases these patients were coming to their clinics, not to find a solution to their pain, but to shop for pain medications. They knew something had to be done.

If they could work to lessen the number of unnecessary surgeries and encourage more non-invasive treatments for painful joint conditions, the problem of dependence on prescription medications could be reduced. By working to develop truly effective non-surgical protocols, they could give patients a real choice, and a real alternative to surgery.

They decided to change the paradigm.

Their vision and years of research have come together under one name. OrthoGen.
