Shoulder & rotator cuff injuries
Hip pain & joint degeneration
Back, neck & spine conditions
Sports & overuse injuries
Tendonitis & ligament damage
Elbow, wrist & hand pain
Ankle & foot conditions
Surgical & Non-Surgical Treatments
Every option, explained honestly.
Every option below is offered only after a physician evaluation. Which one is right for you depends on your condition, your goals, and your physician's assessment.
01
Birth-tissue-derived biologics
Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy
Ethically sourced, birth-tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells — obtained only from facilities that meet Florida's requirements under s. 458.3245, F.S.: registered with the FDA, accredited by a recognized tissue or blood banking organization, and verified to contain viable cells after thawing. Offered under Florida law for orthopedic and pain-management conditions, following a physician evaluation and signed informed consent.
May be discussed forDegenerative joint conditions, arthritis, and orthopedic injuries where natural healing has stalled.
02
Extracellular vesicles
Exosome & Extracellular Vesicle Therapy
Stem cell–derived exosomes are microscopic extracellular vesicles that carry proteins, enzymes, and microRNA between cells. Research into their role in inflammation and tissue repair is ongoing, and their clinical benefit has not been established. Your physician will review the current evidence, risks, and alternatives with you before any decision.
May be discussed forSoft-tissue and joint conditions, evaluated case by case.
03
Umbilical cord connective tissue
Wharton's Jelly
Wharton's Jelly is the gelatinous connective tissue of the umbilical cord, rich in collagen and hyaluronic acid. It is used in select orthopedic applications as a connective-tissue allograft; your physician will explain the product, its regulatory status, and what the evidence does and does not show for your condition.
May be discussed forSelect joint and connective-tissue conditions, evaluated case by case.
04
Made from your own blood
Patient Pure X (PPX)
An autologous preparation made from a small sample of your own blood, processed to concentrate platelet-derived components. Because it comes from your own body, there is no donor tissue involved. Its clinical benefit for specific conditions is still being studied, and your physician will discuss the evidence, risks, and alternatives with you.
May be discussed forPatients who prefer an option made from their own blood.
05
Surgical & conservative care
Orthopedic Surgery & Care
Complete orthopedic care from a board-certified orthopedic surgeon — from conservative management of arthritis, sports injuries, and degenerative conditions to surgery when it's the right answer, performed by Dr. Magee himself at Orlando Ambulatory Surgery Center, next door to our main office. Because the same surgeon weighs every option, your recommendation is based on your condition, not on a single treatment.
May be discussed forJoint, tendon, and sports injuries that need a full orthopedic evaluation, including surgical options.
06
Medicine the way it should feel
Concierge Medical Services
Direct access to your physician. Unhurried visits. A care plan built around your life, not a billing schedule. Our concierge model means you're never a number in a waiting room — you're a patient with a name, a story, and a doctor who knows both.
May be discussed forPatients who want ongoing, personalized care with direct access to their physician.
Regulatory status.None of the biologic therapies listed above (mesenchymal stem cells, exosomes and extracellular vesicles, Wharton's Jelly, or Patient Pure X) has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat any orthopedic or musculoskeletal condition. The FDA has stated that there are currently no FDA-approved exosome products. These therapies are not a substitute for FDA-approved treatments, results vary, and no outcome is guaranteed. Before any treatment, your physician will review the nature of the therapy, its regulatory status, anticipated results, risks, benefits, and alternatives, and you will be asked to sign a written informed consent.

Michael Magee, MDBoard Certified, American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery
Our Founding Physician
One surgeon. Every option — including surgery.
Michael Magee, MD · Founding Physician
Dr. Magee is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon who founded ROMI to bring the full range of orthopedic care under one roof — conservative, regenerative, and surgical. When surgery is the right answer, he performs it himself at Orlando Ambulatory Surgery Center, right next door to our main office — and when another path makes more sense, he'll tell you that too.
The best surgeons know when not to operate. My job is to give every patient an honest map of their options — and walk the least invasive path that actually works.
Every treatment plan at ROMI is developed and directed by licensed physicians, so your care carries surgical-level judgment from the very first visit.

Your First Visit
Three steps from "living with it" to a plan.
1
Tell us your story
A thorough history and hands-on orthopedic examination. Bring your imaging and records if you have them — we'll review everything together, without rushing.
2
Get honest answers
A clear discussion of every path: regenerative therapy, conservative care, or surgery when it's the right answer. No sales pitch, ever.
3
Start your plan
A personalized treatment plan with defined goals and follow-up. New-patient intake forms are ready at your visit, so your time goes to care — not paperwork.
Insurance & Self-Pay
Clear about costs, before your visit.
Two kinds of care, paid for differently — here's how it works.
Insurance
Orthopedic evaluation & care
We accept the following plans for orthopedic evaluations and orthopedic care. Coverage varies by plan, so we verify your benefits before your visit.
Referrals preferredFrom your PCP or referring physician
Same-week appointmentsOften available — just call
Mon–Fri, 9:00 AM – 4:30 PMSix clinics across Central Florida
How soon can I be seen?
Same-week appointments are often available. Call (321) 999-7335, Monday–Friday 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM, and we'll find the soonest opening at the location most convenient for you.
Do I need a referral?
We prefer that new patients be referred by their primary care physician or referring doctor. A referral helps us coordinate your care with your other providers, and many insurance plans require one for coverage. If you don't yet have a referral, please call our office — we'll review your plan's requirements and help you get started. Please bring any imaging (X-rays, MRI) and records from other providers to your first visit.
Do you take insurance?
Yes. We accept Florida Blue, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, TRICARE, and Medicare for orthopedic evaluations and orthopedic care; coverage varies by plan and we verify it before your visit. Regenerative biologic therapies are not FDA-approved, are generally not covered by insurance or Medicare, and are offered on a self-pay basis with a written cost estimate up front.
Am I a candidate for stem cell or biologic therapy?
It depends on your condition, its severity, and your overall health. That's exactly what your first visit determines: a physician evaluates you and tells you honestly whether a regenerative biologic therapy is worth considering — or whether another path makes more sense.
Are these therapies FDA-approved?
No. The biologic therapies we offer have not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat orthopedic conditions. Stem cell therapy is offered under Florida law (s. 458.3245, F.S.). We encourage you to consult with your primary care provider before undergoing any stem cell therapy, and you'll sign a written informed consent before any treatment. Review the consent form (PDF).
Will I be pushed toward a treatment?
No. Our founding physician is an orthopedic surgeon, and our philosophy is simple: every option on the table, explained plainly, including the option to do nothing. You decide — we advise.
Does Dr. Magee perform surgery?
Yes. When surgery is the right answer, Dr. Magee performs it himself at Orlando Ambulatory Surgery Center, 1736 33rd St, Orlando, FL 32839 — next door to our main office.
Which location should I go to?
Whichever is closest. Our physicians rotate across six locations in Orlando, Lake Mary, Davenport, Metro West, and Deltona. Call and we'll match you to the nearest clinic day.
