Heritage Regenerative Medicine: John Stavrakos, MS, MD

I’ve been seeing Dr. John for about five years, and I can’t say enough good things about his practice. It’s incredibly refreshing to have access to truly cutting edge treatment options paired with a doctor who takes the time to understand the root cause of an issue, not just the symptoms. Dr. John consistently presents thoughtful treatment options without immediately pushing prescriptions as the first line of defense. This practice is my first call for any injury, illness, or health concern for both me and my family. Over the years, he has supported me through double pneumonia, long COVID symptoms, and various injuries, always with care, attention, and expertise. If you’re looking for a physician who genuinely listens and offers meaningful solutions, especially when you feel like you’ve hit a dead end with modern medicine then I highly recommend Heritage Regenerative Medicine.

Dr. John has been amazing. I have been sick for over 2 years with meds pushed at me as the fix. So many side effects and a friend told me about Dr. John. Dr. John has taken the time with me to get to the core of the problem , answering all my questions and concerns . Looking at a more natural way in what our body needs for treatment options. I am finally getting back to feeling more like myself. I highly recommend Heritage Regenerative Medicine.

Dr John is AMAZING! He really listens to you as an individual. He customizes your treatment just for YOU! Joanna & Susan are both so sweet & accommodating. I feel great since I started my treatments with Dr John. I would recommend him to everyone

Best experience I have ever had with a medical practice. The entire team is top notch in every aspect (especially Dr. John and Susan) I highly recommend them!

The assistant he has is amazing! She takes her time and make you feel so comfortable! This office is amazing! The Doctor really get to to bottom of things! I feel so good. This is a great place to go! I'm going to continue my health goals with this outstanding office!

Since the beginning of my initial visit to Heritage Regenerative Medicine, Dr.John and staff have been the single most kind and courteous Dr.s office I've ever been too. Dr.John takes the time to hear my concerns, then makes it a point to give you multiple choices in how your treated. He will give the best recommendations to fit your medical situation/need and how long before you'll see results. All the while monitoring each protocol that he's recommended for the best out come possible. Taking an approach to personal health care is a journey that requires discipline and self control and Dr. John and staff are prime at encouraging each patient individually. Dr. John seeks fair compensation for all the services he has provided and explains the cost breakdown in depth letting you choose how you'd like to proceed, knowing that his office is purely self pay and patients budgets vary. Thank-you Dr. John and staff

I told the woman administering a treatment that I had rolling veins. When the needle slipped as she fully inserted it, she said “oops it did roll.” 🤦🏼‍♀️ She also said she didn’t like the way the needle looked as it sat lodged in my arm, but that she was afraid to remove it. She took it out, and rubbed the area with a dry piece of scratchy gauze. I have never felt pain from a needle like that. I was in office following an outpatient procedure at a different establishment, so the woman who missed the vein entirely asked if there were issues that morning with the needle. I said no, I had told the earlier practitioner that I had rolling veins so she held it in place and inserted the needle on the first attempt. Again, that was at a separate establishment. Then another nurse (the receptionist) came by to help. She told me that she was the better choice because she had 47 years experience and implied her coworker was not competent. It was a painful start to the treatment, and while I was waiting for them to get a new needle I began questioning the quality of care I would receive. I realized I didn’t trust either practitioner, and didn’t want the treatment anymore. Instead of giving me a bill, the second lady told me I owed almost $300. I said I would not pay since I did not receive a treatment, and asked to speak to the doctor. I was immediately told he was busy, but that if I didn’t pay he would send the bill to collections. They then agreed to charge me $250 for the consultation only, but I had asked about prices twice, and this amount was never mentioned. At this point I had lost trust in the individuals implementing the treatment and would not be going back for any type of treatment at all. I said I would wait to speak to the doctor, but I was now told he wouldn’t see me because he was upset and because she had already told me everything he would say. This may have been true, but I suspect it was more the woman speaking than the doctor who was upset. Then she asked me why I was still there, so I left. I didn’t realize until late that night when the insertion point began aching again that neither staff member had ever cleaned the area where the needle had been inserted. At best this was lack of transparency and communication. At worst, there are ethical and competency issues. In either case, I recommend proceeding with caution.

After two years of being at an office where I wasn’t making progress with HRT I finally went to see Dr. John after being in the hospital. He and his staff have helped me recover from being over medicated from traditional western medicine modalities. Now I’m on the right dose of thyroid medication and the right dose of HRT…. It has been a long recovery for me but all of the services Dr. John offers has brought me back to feeling better than I have in my adult life. I send all of my clients to him as well that’s how much I trust Dr. John!!!
