Autoimmune conditions we evaluate in Dallas
Autoimmune conditions look different from one person to the next, but they share one feature: the immune system attacks the body’s own tissue and drives ongoing inflammation. Each guide below explains how our treatment approach applies to that condition and what to expect.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
Joint inflammation, pain and morning stiffness, often in the hands, wrists and knees.

How stem cell therapy for autoimmune conditions works
Fat tissue contains mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Research suggests these cells release signals that can influence immune activity and inflammation, which is why they are being studied for autoimmune conditions. That research is ongoing, and responses differ from person to person.
We use autologous adipose-derived stem cells: cells taken from your own fat, processed in our Dallas office and returned to you the same day.
Consultation and records review
Dr. Johnson reviews your diagnosis, current medications, past treatments and goals, and explains other options. If he does not think you are a good candidate, he will tell you.
A small harvest under local anesthesia
A small amount of fat is collected through a mini-liposuction under local anesthesia, without general anesthesia.
Counted, tested cells
Your tissue is processed in our office. Our process yields about 100 million cells, and each patient’s cells receive a viability and count test before treatment.
Delivery and follow-up
Cells are given by IV, with local injections into affected joints when clinically indicated. The whole visit takes about 4 hours, and our team follows up afterward to see how you are doing.
IRB-reviewed protocols
Our protocols were reviewed by an IRB (Institutional Review Board), an independent committee that reviews research to protect patients’ rights and safety.
Recovery and response differ from person to person. Individual results vary.
