Choosing the right stem cell clinic is a decision that can significantly impact your health and treatment outcomes. Unfortunately, not all clinics operate with the same standards of quality, transparency, and ethics. This makes it crucial to carefully evaluate potential clinics based on key factors like expertise, safety, treatment approaches, and outcomes. When choosing any medical facility, it is critical to do your due diligence on the doctors, lab, treatment protocol, and location where you’re being treated.
Unfortunately, not all clinics follow this approach. Some purchase cells from third-party providers, leaving them with little control over the quality and viability of the cells they administer. Without proper oversight, patients may receive substandard treatments that fail to deliver the desired results. In contrast, our controlled process ensures every cell meets rigorous safety and efficacy standards.
At Stem Cell Institute in Panama, we pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality stem cells and adhering to key safety and ethical standards. This has led to decades of positive patient outcomes and a reputation as the world’s leading stem cell therapy, research center, and source of Golden Cells™.
Here’s what sets us apart:
- Patient-centered experience
- Proprietary science and rigorous cell process
- Quality over quantity of stem cells
- 70+ published articles and clinical trials
- 55,000+ procedures
- Treatment of specific health conditions using Golden Cells™
1. Patient-Centered Experience
When selecting a medical facility, trust is paramount, particularly when traveling abroad. It’s essential to feel confident that you are choosing a clinic that prioritizes a patient-centered experience—one that is credible, honest, and ethical. The facility should facilitate efficient communication and provide a transparent process, equipping you with the necessary education and resources regarding stem cell therapy.
At Stem Cell Institute, our doctors meticulously evaluate each patient’s case to determine the appropriateness of stem cell treatment. This dedication to personalized care guarantees that every treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs and medical history.
Stem Cell Institute’s team of patient coordinators also prioritizes transparent, thorough communication during your entire treatment journey. They are here to answer any questions you may have about stem cell therapy, help you with the application process, coordinate your treatment upon application approval, and provide follow-up support.

2. Proprietary Science and Rigorous Cell Process
Choosing a clinic like Stem Cell Institute with proprietary ownership of Golden Cells™, a leading partner laboratory, and a rigorous stem cell process offers significant advantages. By overseeing every step, from stem cell collection to processing and administration, we can maintain strict control over the entire treatment protocol and ensure the highest quality and safety standards from start to finish.
This comprehensive approach allows for:
- Consistent quality control
- Tailored treatments based on your needs
- Cutting-edge research integration
- Enhanced safety measures
Dr. Neil Riordan, PA, PhD, is the founder of Medistem Panama as well as Stem Cell Institute. This allows us to work closely with their state-of-the-art lab that isolates, processes, grows, and stores stem cells under the most optimized conditions. Their team of over 100 lab professionals has extensive experience, supporting the most recent developments in patient care.
Medistem Panama is an 11,000 sq. ft. ISO 9001-certified facility dedicated to stem cell research and production. Their local complex features advanced equipment, including multiple ISO 7 and ISO 5 cleanrooms, laminar flow hoods, and incubators, ensuring the highest standards in stem cell quality and safety for patients.
By owning this process and conducting retrospective analysis of our highly successful cases, we have developed proprietary Golden Cells™ to provide patients with the best opportunities for optimal outcomes. Among many other things, these cells are known to help:
- Reduce inflammation
- Modulate the immune system
- Secrete factors that may help various tissues throughout the body to regenerate
Due to this exceptional therapeutic potential, Golden Cells™ are used for all treatments at Stem Cell Institute. This level of innovation is crucial for achieving the best possible outcomes in stem cell therapy.
Unfortunately, not all clinics follow this approach. Some purchase cells from third-party providers, leaving them with little control over the quality and viability of the cells they administer. Without proper oversight, patients may receive substandard treatments that fail to deliver the desired results. In contrast, our controlled process ensures every cell meets rigorous safety and efficacy standards.
3. Quality over Quantity of Stem Cells
This means placing a strong emphasis on the type, quality, and viability of the stem cells used for treatment at Stem Cell Institute. While some clinics focus on quantity and offer large numbers of cells, our lab has a successful protocol for each condition, proven by years of experience. More stem cells do not mean a better outcome.
Stem cell clinics that use high-quality mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), particularly allogeneic MSCs from umbilical cords, offer several unique advantages. Allogeneic MSCs have the benefit of:
- Low immunogenicity, reducing the risk of rejection
- Immediate availability without invasive harvesting procedures
- Consistency in quality and potency
- Reduced risk of contamination
- Suitability for a wide range of patients and conditions
Allogeneic MSCs from umbilical cords are particularly potent due to their young age, offering enhanced therapeutic potential.
The Golden Cells™ used at Stem Cell Institute Panama are specially-selected allogeneic MSCs discovered after a years-long retrospective analysis of our highly successful cases. They offer a range of benefits, which makes them ideal for regenerative medicine. These cells are carefully screened, processed, and tested in controlled environments, ensuring high purity and potency.
4. 70+ Published Articles and Clinical Trials
As pioneers in stem cell therapy, Stem Cell Institute has a strong commitment to advancing the field through research and clinical trials. Dr. Riordan has published 70+ scientific articles in peer-reviewed journals, contributing to the growing body of evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of stem cell treatments. By participating in cutting-edge research, we not only stay at the forefront of medical advancements but also ensure our patients receive the most effective, science-backed care available.
It’s important for patients to be weary of clinics that offer treatments without ever testing their cells in a clinical trial setting or publishing results to validate their methods. This lack of accountability can pose significant risks to patients. At Stem Cell Institute, we believe in full transparency and scientific validation, ensuring stem cell treatment is as safe and effective as possible.
5. Treatment of Specific Health Conditions
Choosing a stem cell clinic that focuses on specific health conditions is important for several reasons. By choosing to specialize rather than claiming to use stem cells as a cure-all, clinics are able to develop deep expertise and tailored protocols for treating particular ailments effectively.
Stem Cell Institute concentrates on the following treatment protocols:
This focused approach has also enabled us to:
- Refine our treatment protocols
- Build more extensive experience
- Collaborate with leading research institutions
By targeting specific conditions, we focus on treating patients who have the best opportunities for optimal outcomes. For instance, the vast majority of patients with autoimmune diseases respond well to treatment at Stem Cell Institute, such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Deciding where to pursue stem cell therapy is more than just a medical choice—it’s a commitment to your health and future well-being. At Stem Cell Institute, we stand apart by putting science, ethics, and patient care above all else. Every step of the patient experience is designed to prioritize safety, transparency, and effectiveness.
