If you are looking for knee pain treatment in Fayetteville, GA, the nearest non-surgical clinic is a short drive up the road. Regenerative Joint Clinics sees patients at 483 Upper Riverdale Road SW, Suite F, in Riverdale, about 9 to 10 miles northeast of the Fayetteville square, roughly a 20 minute drive by way of GA-85 and GA-92. The clinic treats knees without surgery, using image-guided injections, custom-fitted bracing, on-site diagnostic imaging, and Hako-Med therapy.
Nothing offered here involves an operating room, and nothing involves stem cells. For a painful knee the options are hyaluronic acid gel, platelet-rich plasma, cortisone, and Sarapin, each placed with fluoroscopic or ultrasound guidance so the medication reaches the part of the joint actually causing the pain. Diagnostics and hyaluronic acid gel injections are covered by most major medical insurance and Medicare. Platelet-rich plasma is elective and self-pay. Coverage for the other options and for bracing is checked with your plan before anything is scheduled.

Non-surgical knee treatment options
Hyaluronic acid (gel) injections. A lubricating fluid injected into the knee to cushion a joint worn by osteoarthritis. It is given as a single shot or a short series, guided by imaging. In Georgia, Medicare has several requirements before it pays for knee gel injections, and one of them is an x-ray on file confirming osteoarthritis, so the clinic takes that image early and checks the rest of your benefits before the series starts.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP). A concentrate made from a small draw of your own blood, injected into the knee. It is elective and typically not covered by insurance, so it is a self-pay service here.
Cortisone injections. A fast-acting anti-inflammatory for a flaring knee, used on a clinically limited schedule.
Sarapin injections. A non-steroidal botanical injectable used for chronic joint pain when a steroid is not the right choice.
Custom-fitted knee bracing. An unloader brace shifts weight off the worn side of the knee. The clinic measures and fits medical-grade braces; whether a plan covers one is confirmed before anything is ordered.
Hako-Med horizontal therapy. An electrotherapy option used as part of a knee care plan.
Which knee problems does the clinic treat?
Knee osteoarthritis, bone-on-bone pain, meniscus and cartilage wear, patellar tendon pain, and general chronic knee pain that has not settled with rest or medication. Care is planned around the joint, and a plan can include physical therapy by referral.
How does diagnosis work?
A first visit combines an exam with on-site digital x-ray or fluoroscopy so treatment is aimed at what the images actually show, not a guess. That same x-ray is one of the things Medicare needs on file in Georgia before it will pay for gel injections.
Does insurance cover knee treatment?
The covered part of the program, including diagnostics and hyaluronic acid gel injections, is covered by most major medical insurance and Medicare. Platelet-rich plasma is the usual exception and is self-pay. Bracing coverage depends on your plan and is confirmed before anything is ordered. The front desk checks your specific plan before anything is scheduled.
