Dr. Bharara Earns 2019 Top Doctor Recognition

Dr. Niteesh Bharara earns Washingtonian Top Doctor honors in five consecutive years.

Niteesh Bharara, MD – Director of Regenerative Medicine, Virginia Spine Institute

As Director of Regenerative Medicine, Dr. Bharara has redefined non-surgical treatment options for active individuals suffering with spine or orthopaedic joint, tendon, and ligament conditions. He is leading the Mid-Atlantic region in performing effective, natural regenerative therapies such as stem cell therapy, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), prolotherapy, and the Lipogems procedures.

Dr. Bharara’s distinguished expertise within this innovative field earned him 2019 Face of Regenerative Medicine. This prestigious title is presented to only one individual, cementing Dr. Bharara as a leader in the field. Additionally, he travels internationally to lecture, teach and train fellow physicians on the most advanced alternatives to surgery. Dr. Bharara performs modern surgical alternatives for athletes and weekend warriors. He carefully pinpoints and treats the underlying source of pain without relying on medication or surgery, which leads to increased function and mobility with a far shorter recovery time than traditional treatments. His sought-after medical expertise is rooted in physical medicine and rehabilitation and balanced by his passion for patient care. After a sports injury during a high school soccer game, Dr. Bharara realized he wanted to become a physician to help others recover from ailments and get back to doing the things they love — just like his doctors did for him back then.

Today, he carries that commitment to each of his patients so that they too can regain an active lifestyle and improve their quality of life! Dr. Bharara listens intently to understand his patients’ goals, and bridges the treatment gap by utilizing the body’s natural healing process to alleviate pain and support the patient’s goals for recovery. His philosophy promotes the practice of innovative and safe treatment options.
