The entire team is excellent. Dr. Tambar takes the time to explain a treatment plan, makes sure you are comfortable with the plan and executes the plan with great care and explanation including follow-up to cover questions and provide any other necessary information. The office is extremely organized and clean and nurses, P.A. and others make you feel cared for and at ease.

The Stem Cell procedure and follow up PRP have really helped. I am so very grateful that my pain level and mobility have both improved. Dr. Tambar is very experienced at the image guided injections and knows which areas to treat. So glad I found Chicago Arthritis!

Prior to me coming to doctor tambar at Chicago arthritis. I have been researching and studying stem cells. To know how to prepare my body to heal properly is as important as finding the right doctor. In the process of searching for the last 4 years, this was the first clinic I found that had all the factors I needed to make a better success rate for myself. 1- orthopedic surgeon 2-a clinic that can pull 1 million stem cells at one time. 3- a clinic with its own lab to process the stem cells. 4-a staff knowledgeable on how to work with the doctor in billing and nursing. 5-the ultrasound machine that can pinpoint directly where you need your treatments. Here in Illinois this is the only place I have found with recommendation of regenex technology. Don't take my word for it research your own studies and come to the conclusions of your own knowing that what I have gone through has been worth it for the results I'm receiving. Thank you Dr Tambar and staff for being there encouraging and helping me get through these injuries. My results are close to 100% recovery. My life is full again

I generally have a distrust of doctors. I was anxious and insecure with my first visit and couldn't describe my symptoms adequately. That's just me! However, Dr Tambar comes across as a caring doctor who can potentially help a complicated person like myself. He takes a lot of time to answer your questions. He was kind to my husband and answered his questions as well. Jasmine at the front desk was courteous and friendly the moment I walked in.

I have several joint issues that are results from wear and tear/injuries from my 25 years in the military. Although I’m retired from EOD now I still desire to maintain a very active lifestyle. Chicago Arthritis has helped me do this. I have seen Dr. Tambar and his staff multiple times for various issues. They have treated torn ACL and PCL, SLAP tear, degenerative arthritis in my thumb and elbow as well. I have done two Stem cell treatments that were about 4 years apart and in between those treatments were several PRP treatments that were spaced about 6 months apart. Trust me when I say that these procedures help ALOT and are worth it. The PRP and STEM cell treatments have pretty much cured my SLAP tear inflammation that lingered from a previous surgery and have also tightened up my lax PCL and ACL which surgery could not do. They also bring down the arthritis inflammation in my elbow and thumb for months if not years at a time. This is helping me enjoy a very active lifestyle and putting off any surgery for joint replacement. Dr. Tambar is a true professional and the Regenexx processes that he uses are superior to other facilities that seem to “dabble” in regenerative care as simply another menu item. His staff (Jackie, Jeff, Grace, Leah, and Devi)are always courteous, very professional and just very friendly to talk to. As long as I’m in Illinois, this is the place I will go for regenerative medicine.

I know I am in great hands with Dr. Tambar and his staff at Chicago Arthritis. They truly care about me as a patient and have been instrumental in treating my arthritis with diagnosis, treatment, and being a shoulder to lean on. My journey with arthritis has had its twists and turns so I’m glad to have switched rheumatologists to Chicago Arthritis because they have supported me throughout it. When I had a really bad flare up, everyone was sympathetic and worked diligently to get me back on a treatment plan. When I had some higher numbers in some blood work, they explained it to me and we ran further diagnosis to rule out any concerns. When I had some insurance billing issues, they helped me solve the issues and expedited getting my medicine. If you are just beginning your journey or are looking for new paths in dealing with your issues, Chicago Arthritis is the place I would send you, my friends, and my friend family.

Everyone at Chicago Arthritis were great - very professional and very friendly. The PA's interview was thorough. Dr. Tambar was very pleasant and approachable - easy to discuss my issue with. He was thorough too - asked pertinent questions, and made sure I understood that the tests he was ordering would help with diagnosing my issue. He did an Ultra Sound on my wrist in the examining room, and he took the time to explain to me what we were seeing. In the followup visit, he explained what the test results indicated, and recommended treatment for my condition. At no time did I feel that he was in a rush to see the next patient, like I often felt with the many specialists I saw for my condition. I am extremely impressed by the service I received on both my visits. I highly recommend Dr. Tambar.

I'm very hopeful now that Dr. Tambar will be providing me with his medical expertise🙏😊🙏

When I started to wake up with a stiff, painful lower left back/hip pain every morning for almost a year (and getting worse by the day), and shaky, unsteady knees walking 3-4 miles consistently for months. The MRI and ultrasound revealed that I had wear and tear to my knee joints and SI joints but since the pain was keeping me from my usual exercise activities (Pilates, walking and bicycling) I decided that i wanted to try PRP so I can remain active, alleviate the pain and hopefully, slow down further damage. I had seen Dr. Tambar for my AS in the past so I was aware of his expertise in PRP. The procedure was relatively quick. The injections to the knees was a quick unpleasant feeling but the injection to the SI joint and back was not fun!!! Within two weeks, my knees were stronger. I had no pain from walking or cycling. My lower back however took about 5 weeks. I woke up everyday stiff and sore. I was worried that the procedure did not work for my fact, but around the 5 week mark, I no longer work up with a stiff back. My Pilates exercise no longer aggravated my back, and walking long distance was fine too. I can tell that my left hip is stronger too when I do my yoga tree pose on my left leg (which used to be impossible). I am glad I decided to give PRP a try. The results were better than I had expected.

I had stem cell and PRP injections several years ago at Chicago Arthritis and a month ago had a "booster" injection of PRP in my knee and low back. Dr. Tambar and his staff have been wonderful to work with. Very professional yet welcoming and caring. I chose Dr. Tambar after a lot of research, because of his knowledge and passion for his work. He is genuinely concerned with his patients. I'm seeing good results in both my knee and my back! I'm glad I took the chance on this treatment.

Dr Tambar and NP Leah are very knowledgeable. Dr Tambar worked promptly in our first session to get the lab results and ultrasounds necessary to verify my RA. Regular follow ups were great to update my treatment and now my current treatment has eliminated my joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. It’s definitely scary to live with RA and I had to be patient to find the right treatment but they did their best to be your advocates and aggressively treat. The only negative is that the billing is archaic. Bills are sent via paper mail. Definitely need to track claims with your insurance for all charges…

I was diagnosed with a herniated disc by a doctor at IBJI. He recommended microdiscectomy surgery because he believed I had only a 20% chance of recovery by an epidural shot and physical therapy. I found out about Regenexx through my online research and was glad that they have a clinic in Chicago. I was pleased with the initial visit with Dr. Tambar and the graphics shown on his visit summary video gave me a clear understanding of the recommended procedure. Dr. Tambar also pointed out that I had several injured ligaments, which the IBJI doctor failed to inform me. It’s been three months since the first PRP treatment and I’m happy with the progress I have made so far. It’s not a quick fix, but I believe it’s the right treatment for my problem. The entire staff is very helpful. Highly recommended.

I had a wonderful experience with the Chicago Arthritis Regennex center. It was beyond wonderful!! I came in with terrible hip pain and in few short weeks I’m feeling so good I’m pinching myself and can’t believe how great I’m feeling!! From the initial telemedicine visit, Dr Tambar and Devi the practice manager seem to settle any of my anxieties. The entire team, Dr, Tambar, Devi, Leah, the PA and phlebotomists were so professional and perfectionists ensuring to get the procedures done correctly. I’m a Physical Therapist owning my own practice. The last 14 years we focused on patients with chronic pain. The regenerative medicine practiced at the Chicago Arthritis Regeneration Center is ‘state of the art’ and the missing link in the treatment of patients with chronic pain. God bless you all!!!

If I could give more than five stars, I would! I have been a patient of Dr. Tambar for many years. I have always been impressed with the care that he and his team have provided from day one. From diagnosis to ongoing treatment, the personalized care that I have received is above and beyond any practitioner that I have ever experienced. From the front desk, the practice administrator, the nursing staff, PA Leah Brown, and Dr. Tambar, all have been exceptional. Dr. Tambar goes out of his way to make sure all your questions are answered and that you understand your treatment and options. His personal touch and bedside manner are stellar. In addition to the care and treatment that Dr. Tambar provides, I have been impressed with his ongoing outreach and education through his social media presence on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram.

I have sought medical expertise three times now at Chicago Arthritis & Regenerative Medicine, the first time to address an arthritic and swollen ankle, the second time to address a spreading swollen calf, and the third time to seek blood test results for a potential cause. In all instances , not only was the desk staff, technicians and therapists very warm, welcoming and professional but the founding Rheumatologist Dr. Siddharth Tambar proved attentive, caring, discerning, and ultimately helpful in healing my ailment. That is why I am rating this medical practice the highest stars.

I couldn't be more pleased with the experience I had at Chicago Arthritis. Not only was the care team very attentive to my needs, but my experience with Dr. Tambar was one of the best I've ever had. Dr. Tambar took the time to fully understand and assess my condition, very candidly explained my treatment options, and very transparent about my expected outcomes with treatment and short/ long term implications of abstaining from treatment. I was assessed for problems with both of my hands and, after evaluating the conditions of the nerves in both of my hands, Dr. Tambar empathetically informed me that my right hand would likely require surgical intervention but that my left hand was a great candidate for a Regenexx procedure. I opted to have both hands treated and I'm delighted to say that my left hand (the one that was given a decent candidacy rating) responded very well to treatment, and my right hand resulted in almost exactly what Dr. Tambar advised me of before treatment. Unfortunately, my right hand had digressed to the point that surgical intervention was necessary (just as Dr. Tambar informed me), but I couldn't be happier with the results I experienced in my left hand. Thanks to Dr. Tambar, I was able to avoid a second surgery and got back to weight lifting and typing far faster than I could have and with considerably less pain and downtime than surgery would have yielded. I strongly advise that anyone looking for non-surgical options for treatment of orthopedic conditions see Dr. Tambar; I can personally attest that he will give you a straightforward assessment of your condition and treatment options and may help you avoid surgery!

The entire experience was great from start to finish Dr. Tambar is extremely professional , friendly well educated and number one in the nation and the staff is friendly/ accommodating and went above & beyond my expectations . I’ve researched for over a year before I had my treatment done (lower lumbar ) the treatment they offer at Chicago Arthritis is truly one of a kind & custom per situation. There are many scams out there so please be careful & follow the science, results of patients and remember there treatment is a natural cure not a band-Aid epidural injection. I obtained some of the information from Regenexx company the original creature of the generative treatments , they started in 2005 in Phoenix Arizona. As the company perfected it’s treatment and started to grow, they certified other physicians throughout the nation. In the Chicago land area there’s only one certified Regenexx trained location (Chicago Arthritis). My first round of treatment had wonderful results & no longer taking my Vicodin/ naprosyn or any other pain meds , my pain level is currently around a 3-4 out of ten , so I’m probably going in for one more procedure which should put me at a zero . I would definitely recommend the Regenexx treatment depending on were your located the treatment isn’t typically covered by the insurance , so I guess it’s a personal decision although what’s the Value of living pain free ?

Two enthusiastic thumbs up!! Recently went to Chicago Arthritis and seen Dr Tambar for PRP therapy. The injections were a god send, they helped strengthen the muscles, ligaments, tissue around my lower back. This allowed the pressure to be taken off my spine. Within 2 weeks I was pleasantly surprised with the ability to sleep thru the night without waking up every 45 min to a burning back pain. I highly recommend this procedure and clinic.

(Listening can be a rare quality for some physicians and specialists.) I could not be more satisified with the entire process, from start to finish. I can recommend Dr. Tambar without reservation.
