The patient you refer to surgery has an option you could be offering

01

You already inject. Corticosteroid, hyaluronic acid, maybe platelet-rich plasma. The patient improves for a while, comes back, and eventually the conversation turns to surgery.

02

Between the injection you know and the operation you refer to, there is a layer of biological options that most orthopaedic training never covered: which product for which structure, at what dose, guided how, and what the realistic recovery looks like over the months after.

The part almost nobody teaches is the other half of the sentence. What the complications are, how to recognise them early, and what to do about them. A protocol without that is not a protocol.

Three structures, taught the same way each time

  1. Dr. Richard Silva on the ISSCA stagePhase 01

    The framework

    Regenerative medicine inside an orthopaedic practice: patient selection, what biologics can and cannot be expected to do, and how to set the conversation with the patient.

  2. A lumbar procedure at the clinicPhase 02

    Spine

    Cervical and lumbar conditions: the regenerative approaches available, the structures being targeted, dosing, and the complications to plan for.

  3. A knee procedure, two surgeons at the tablePhase 03

    Knee and shoulder

    Advanced protocols and clinical management for both joints, each block closing on complications and their management.

  4. A shoulder procedure recorded end to endPhase 04

    Three live procedures

    Lumbar, shoulder and knee, each recorded end to end by a different surgeon, with the planning and the discussion kept in the cut.

This certification is for you if

  • You are an orthopaedic surgeon, physiatrist, sports or pain physician who already injects and wants to move to biologics.
  • You want the complications taught alongside the protocol rather than left out of it.
  • You see chronic joint pain in general practice and want a defensible option before referral.
  • You want to watch three procedures performed by three different surgeons rather than one house technique.

It is a different programme if

  • You do not yet inject joints. This programme assumes the needle and the anatomy, and teaches the biological layer above them.
  • You are looking for systemic or aesthetic applications. Advanced Exosomes, MSCs & NK Cell Immunotherapy covers five routes across the body.

Before you enrol

Questions, answered

I already use platelet-rich plasma in joints. What is new here?
Cells, exosomes and peptides as separate decisions by structure, the dosing behind each, and the complications and their management taught as part of every block.
Do the procedures use ultrasound guidance?
The live cases are recorded with the guidance method the surgeon used on the day, with a dedicated camera on the field and the screen in the cut.
How long does it take?
About five hours of recorded content plus the exam. Self-paced; most physicians finish in one to two weeks.
In which language is the certification?
English master with Spanish subtitles. It is sold as a bilingual product.
When do I get access?
November 20, 2026. Access does not expire.
How is the certification issued?
An exam in Kajabi, 80% to pass, two attempts. It issues the ISSCA International Certification with a unique serial.
How is this different from the in-person certification at the Summit?
Same faculty, same programme, same day, recorded. The online edition lets you watch every block as many times as you need.
Is there a refund policy?
A refund is available as long as the first unit has not been completed. Once the first unit is completed, no refund applies, as this is an online content offer.
Can I pay in instalments?
Enrolment is a single payment. The pre-sale price is the discount.

Spine, knee, shoulder. Three live procedures, complications included.
