Bryn Renda PA-C
Nationally Board Certified Physician Assistant specializing in Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Therapy
As a retired professional athlete, I have a deep appreciation for the impact that sports-related injury can have on a patient’s overall quality of life. As a result, my career in regenerative medicine began by working with professional athletes to help them regain pain-free mobility and function. From there, my passion for regenerative medicine spread to helping others invest in their health and get back to living life to the fullest. I believe that every patient deserves a personalized experience on their journey to health and healing, and I am passionate about helping each patient achieve whole-body wellness through a naturalistic, holistic approach at Axis Stem Cell Institute.
