Where Excellence and Empathy Converge to Redefine Orthopaedic Care
We combine the highest level of surgical expertise with advanced, research-backed regenerative medicine options such as PRP and Stem Cells that may help you avoid surgeries such as joint replacements.
See what our patients have to say:
We prioritize the most advanced research-backed non-surgical treatments including PRP, A2M, stem cells, laser and shockwave to help patients avoid joint replacements and other surgeries whenever possible.
Excellence in Orthopaedic surgery led by Mark Ayzenberg, MD, FAAOS, a top-rated, double board-certified and fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon.
What sets us apart is not only our cutting-edge techniques, but also the way we care for our patients: with time, empathy, and a tailored approach.
Orthopaedic Care, Done Differently
At Iron Mountain Orthopaedic Institute, we do things differently. We know that your ability to engage in the activities you love is central to your quality of life — whether that’s keeping up with your grandchildren, golfing or competing at a high level.
In our clinic, every patient receives the time they deserve — longer, personalized visits designed to answer every question and ensure comfort with the plan of care.
We believe in a “less is more” approach, led by our founder Mark Ayzenberg, MD, FAAOS, who reminds his patients: “less pills, less shots, less surgery — whenever possible.” We offer the most effective, least invasive solutions available, and recommend surgery only when it is truly the best option.
Led by our founder, Dr. Mark Ayzenberg, our philosophy is simple:
“Less pills. Less shots. Less surgery—whenever possible.”
We prioritize the most effective, least invasive solutions available, recommending surgery only when it is truly the best option.
Advanced Treatment. Thoughtful Care.
We combine the highest level of surgical expertise with cutting-edge, research-backed regenerative medicine, including:
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
- Cellular Therapy
- MLS Laser Therapy
These options help many patients avoid major surgeries while accelerating recovery and improving outcomes.
Our mission is to return patients to the activities they love—as quickly, safely, and naturally as possible—using minimally invasive techniques, exceptional surgical care when needed, and a supportive bedside manner.
What truly sets us apart is not only our technology, but how we care: with empathy, time, and a fully tailored approach.
Areas of Regenerative Medicine Expertise
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a regenerative medicine injection made from your own blood after a simple in-office blood draw that has bioactive components that stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.
- Stem Cell Therapy (BMAC) is a regenerative medicine therapy made by taking some of your bone marrow and concentrating it to increase stem cells, growth factors and other components that contribute to tissue repair and regeneration.
- Alpha-2-Macroglobulin (A2M) is a large protein naturally found in your blood. Its main job is to trap and neutralize harmful enzymes that break down cartilage in your joints.
- MLS Laser Therapy is a painless treatment that can potentially enhance circulation, improve nerve function, and help reduce scar tissue, which can lead to better mobility and recovery.
- Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses targeted acoustic energy to stimulate your body’s natural healing response in chronically injured tendons, soft tissues and joints.
Conditions Treated With PRP Injections
- Why Patients Choose PRP Therapy
- Uses your body’s own healing properties
- Minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment
- May reduce pain and inflammation
- Helps support tissue repair and recovery
- Performed by a board-certified orthopaedic specialist
