About the clinic
Stem cell therapy for back pain at Immunotherapy Regenerative Medicine in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, typically runs between $10,000 and $25,000. This non-surgical treatment uses fresh mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with a high viability of 97–99% to target damaged spinal discs. The clinic is led by Dr. Ernesto Romero Lopez, a pioneer in the field with over 20 years of clinical research experience.
Advanced Stem Cell Protocol
The clinic uses an intradiscal injection method to treat conditions like herniated discs and degenerative disc disease. Specialists use fluoroscopy, a type of live X-ray, to guide the injection directly into the affected area. This precision helps repair disc thinning and relieves chronic lower back pain or sciatica. Patients receive local anesthesia, so there is no need for general anesthesia or invasive surgery.
The treatment uses fresh, never-frozen MSCs produced in an in-house laboratory. This lab holds a COFEPRIS license from the Mexican government, which regulates health and safety. The cells are verified for quality before every procedure. Patients may also receive support therapies like platelet-rich plasma (PRP), ozone therapy, or exosomes to help the healing process.
Expert Medical Team
The medical team includes specialists in regenerative medicine, orthopedics, and sports medicine. Dr. Ernesto Romero Lopez leads the protocols with his extensive background in integrative medicine. He is joined by orthopedic experts Dr. Edgar Jesús Partida De Haro and Dr. Francisco Rafael Hernández Pérez. Together, they review MRI or CT scans before starting any treatment to create a specific plan for each patient.
Recovery and Patient Experience
Recovery is usually fast because the procedure is minimally invasive. Most patients go back to their daily activities within 24 to 48 hours. Light activity is often possible within a few days. While pain relief can start in the first few weeks, the spine continues to improve over two to six months. The clinic has a 4.7-star rating and has treated patients from over 10 countries.
- Medical Review: A detailed consultation and imaging review are required before the injection.
- Travel: The facility is located only 10 minutes from Puerto Vallarta International Airport.
- Safety: Protocols are reviewed by the UNAM Ethics Committee and follow FDA-compliant lab processes.
- Support: Follow-up care includes structured rehabilitation to help maintain long-term results.

I went here last week, had a wonderful experience everyone is super nice and speaks english. The doctor is very knowledgeable and does everything they can to help your situation. The facilities are extremely clean and comfortable. Every nurse I had an interaction with helped me feel comfortable and at home. I had IV, Facial, and Intrathecal. Was worried about potential side effects but suffered no negative effects. I have 0 complaints or regrets, I hope to return someday. Truly a world class experience, highly recommended.

I was dismissed and misdiagnosed by conventional medicine for years until I found this clinic.
From my first virtual consultation with Dr. Alejandra Rojas, I knew I was in the right place. She listened with care, explained everything clearly, and created a protocol tailored to my condition. Throughout treatment, she remained fully present, always responsive, precise, and supportive. Her depth of knowledge, empathy, and commitment makes her truly exceptional.
The medical team, Dr. Luis Padilla, Dr. Jose Rosas, and Dr. Karla Castolo, were equally professional, kind, and focused. Their collaborative approach gave me confidence and stability at every stage. I felt safe and closely monitored the entire time.
The nursing staff was outstanding. Torres and Miriam were my main nurses. Their skill and kindness made a real difference daily. Andrea and Pamela also cared for me with professionalism and warmth.
Sarah, at reception, went far beyond her role. In the heat of the day, she picked up lunch for me every day just to help. She even made me a handmade necklace that deeply touched me. And on my birthday, the team surprised me with a cake. Every gesture, large or small, meant something and none of it went unnoticed.
Abel, the patient coordinator, deserves special thanks. From the very first contact, his warmth and efficiency set the tone. He guided me through every detail, stayed in constant contact, and helped far beyond expectation. His presence made a lasting difference. We became true friends through the process, and I will always be grateful for his support.
Lorena Shira, the clinic director, personally explained their lab protocols, ethics, and research collaboration. I was impressed by the transparency and integrity throughout.
Their mesenchymal stem cells are ethically sourced and never frozen, produced in-house at their Puerto Vallarta lab under strict protocols. They operate independently and collaborate with UNAM in a national regenerative medicine initiative.
I am now continuing my protocol at home with their support and follow-up. They remain fully engaged in my care, and I am hopeful for the results.
This clinic is not just a medical provider. It is a place of real care, professionalism, and humanity.
I received more than treatment. I will always be grateful.

I am very afraid of needles to a point that I pass out when someone takes my blood so naturally I was really afraid of the procedure. From the beginning of my healing journey I felt I was in the very best hands. Mariana was always by my side and explained everything to me before and after the treatment. The nurse who took my blood laid me flat in a comfortable chair and I did not even feel anything while she took my blood. The same with the procedure itself I did not feel a thing and it was over before I knew it. Thanks to the whole team and especially Mariana for this amazing journey. I can not thank them enough and I am very grateful and excited for what is to come.

I came to Immunotherapy Regenerative Medicine April 24/25 for stem cell injections in both knee's. the experience was professional and positive, from the first contact to the completion everyone I had contact with was extremely helpful. Cesar Romero my Patient Coordinator was there for me every step of the way, answering questions and arranging contact with the Dr. All of the nurses and staff at the clinic were professional and helpful. The Dr. explained all the procedures before and answered all of my questions. Dr. Luis Francisco Padilla also explained the entire procedure and what to do after treatment, he did a fantastic job. Thank You, I would recommend this clinic to anyone.

Stay Away — This Clinic Made My Injury Worse
I rarely leave reviews, but I feel obligated to warn others. I came to this clinic seeking help for my left knee. Not only did they fail to improve anything — they made my condition worse.
Instead of delivering competent care, they marked up and injected my knee in a way that led to increased inflammation, numbness, and ongoing complications I’m still dealing with. It’s clear they either didn’t understand the underlying issue or didn’t care enough to get it right.
What’s worse is the lack of follow-up or accountability. I voiced my concerns and got nothing but vague reassurances. No concrete plan, no responsibility taken for the damage they caused. I’ve since seen more qualified providers who were shocked by how poorly things were handled here.
This clinic did more harm than good. If you’re dealing with a joint issue or any injury, do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. Don’t risk your health at a place that doesn’t take your pain seriously and clearly lacks the skill to help.
