Patient Disclaimer
OmniStem facilitates connections between patients, doctors, and scientists with licensed medical professionals who offer umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell treatments outside the United States and Canada as part of their clinical practice.
Since stem cell therapy is not recognized as a standard of care in the U.S. or Canada, the following disclosures are essential for all individuals considering this therapy:
- The field of adult stem cell treatment is in its early stages.
- The U.S. FDA has not evaluated the treatments described on OmniStem.com, and they are not considered standard care for any condition or disease.
- Significant and unknown risks may be associated with adult stem cell treatments, as long-term studies have not yet been conducted.
- No prospective, randomized clinical trials for most diseases have been conducted using adult stem cells, so no guarantee of safety or effectiveness is implied or stated.
- Licensed doctors will only perform treatments after the patient has provided informed consent.
- If accepted for treatment, it will not take place in the USA or Canada, but in Colombia or Dominican Republic.
- Applications may take up to four working days to review from the date of submission.
Treatment Fees
- This is not a clinical trial.
- Health insurance does not cover treatment fees.
- OmniStem does not provide itemized bills.
- A fee will be quoted once your treatment protocol has been determined.
To proceed with the evaluation process, you must first acknowledge that you have read and understand the above statements.
