LORA L. BROWN, M.D. TruWell Regenerative Health Specialties: Functional Regenerative Medicine and Anti-Aging

Regenerative Medicine is a rapidly evolving specialty of medicine that employs the use of your body’s own stem cells and tissue to accelerate healing and treatment of pain, injuries, and disease. Lora L. Brown, M.D., is the area’s leading specialist in functional regenerative medicine and anti-aging. Fellowship-trained at the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic, Dr. Brown is a double board-certified physician and the founder of TruWell, a comprehensive practice based in downtown St. Petersburg. Adult stem cells, the most clinically relevant type of stem cells, are responsible for naturally repairing

and maintaining tissues in response to injury or disease. These multi-potent cells can become (or support) nerve cells, cartilage cells, muscle cells, bone, and blood vessel cells, which makes them extremely valuable for use in the treatment of many degenerative arthritis conditions. Dr. Lora Brown is one of very few physicians who practice a combination of functional and regenerative medicine, combining stem cell therapy with nutritional analysis, hormone replacement and even genetic testing, when necessary. Patients from across the country travel to St. Petersburg to take

advantage of Dr. Brown’s technique. She currently uses these therapies to treat patients with rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s, diabetes and COPD. Dr. Brown believes that balance and wellness are crucial in the prevention of the negative side effects of aging. She works side-by-side with TruWell staff to personally oversee every aspect of the patient’s clinical diagnosis, treatment and education. Dr. Brown is a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging and has trained at The Buck Institute for Research on Aging.
