Serving Illinois patients
Regenerative Medicine for Illinois Patients
Regen.MD is a St. Louis practice with a real Illinois presence. Dr. Gurpreet Singh Padda is licensed to practice in Illinois and holds full staff privileges at Anderson Hospital in Maryville, so patients across Madison and St. Clair counties are treated by a physician embedded in their region’s own hospital system.
A short drive, and a different answer
From Maryville, Edwardsville, Glen Carbon, Collinsville, Troy and the surrounding communities, the Woodson clinic is a straightforward drive across the river, directly next to Lambert Airport.
What Illinois patients find on arrival is a practice that refuses to treat a joint or a spine in isolation. The dual licensure and the Anderson Hospital appointment are what make that presence real rather than a marketing radius — the same standard applied to every community the practice serves.
What we treat for Illinois patients
Scope is identical on both sides of the river, and each condition has a page of its own: joint dysfunction, chronic back pain, neuropathic pain and metabolic inflammation.
From diagnosis to intervention
The terrain is measured, the true pain generator is confirmed, and then orthobiologics, neuromodulation, peptide therapy or metabolic optimization are delivered in whatever combination the evidence supports for that case.
One sequence, both states
Nothing about that sequence is state-specific. Chemistry is corrected and re-measured before structure is treated, everywhere, for the same reason: an unmeasured terrain is the most common explanation for a regenerative procedure that underdelivers. See our approach.
How the first visit works
The evaluation is structured so that each trip does real work — imaging review and physician assessment in one paid session, ending in a written roadmap. Apply for a Clinical Evaluation.
What Illinois patients should know
Dr. Padda holds active medical licenses in both Illinois and Missouri, so there is no cross-border barrier to becoming his patient. Regenerative procedures are performed at the Woodson office next to Lambert Airport — typically a thirty-to-forty-minute drive from the Metro East communities.
Illinois communities we serve
Regen.MD draws patients from Maryville, Edwardsville, Glen Carbon, Collinsville, Troy and the wider Madison and St. Clair counties. Maryville and Edwardsville have dedicated pages covering those communities in more detail.

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to travel to Missouri for treatment?
The regenerative procedures are performed at the Woodson office in St. Louis, directly beside Lambert Airport — generally a thirty-to-forty-minute drive from most Madison and St. Clair County communities. The Anderson Hospital appointment supports continuity of care closer to home.
Is spinal fusion something I can undo later if I change my mind?
No, and that asymmetry is the reason to evaluate alternatives before rather than after. Fusion also transfers load to the segments above and below it. More here: the adjacent segment trap.
Can cartilage actually heal, or is that marketing?
The honest answer is narrower than the marketing and wider than the flat no most patients are given, and it depends heavily on the metabolic terrain. Set out here: can you heal cartilage naturally.
