a Compassionate Team.
We Are Regenirex
At Regenirex, we’ve been providing patients with innovative and effective care for pain management in Kearney, across Nebraska, and the Great Plains since 2013. We’re proud of our reputation for advancing minimally-invasive, non-opioid solutions for chronic pain, resulting in positive outcomes and better quality of life for our patients. In the last few years we have added hormone optimization to our services and in the very near future we will be offering custom, individualized, precision health and wellness care.
