- Who: QC Kinetix, Regenerative Health of Champaign, Med-Den Funding and Security First Bank face a class action lawsuit.

- Where: The QC Kinetix lawsuit was filed in federal court in Illinois.
QC Kinetix, Regenerative Health of Champaign, Med-Den Funding and Security First Bank face a class action lawsuit claiming they work together to falsely promote medical treatments and engage in fraudulent conduct when financing medical agreements.
QC Kinetix pressures potential patients seeking information on treatments into upsales of services and financing through Med-Den Funding and Security First Bank, the lawsuit claims.
Lead Plaintiff Dawn Robertson alleges she explored QC Kinetix treatments and, at her first appointment, the company pressured her into signing up for $20,000 in services that began immediately and which Med-Den Funding and Security First Bank financed. Robertson described the interaction as a high-pressure sales presentation from employee Tawny Dychet.
“Ms. Dyche told plaintiff that in order to get the ‘absolute best results’ she should treat both hips and both shoulders, even though she was not having pain on both sides,” the QC Kinetix class action says.
“Plaintiff was skeptical but Ms. Dyche kept telling Plaintiff how QC Kinetix was doing great things. Ms. Dyche stated that the cost for one joint was $8,000 but that any others agreed to on that date would be half price ($4,000); however, if plaintiff signed up for one joint and sought further treatments later she would have to pay full price for the latter.”
Patients don’t know QC Kinetix treatments aren’t FDA-approved, lawsuit says
After her first two treatments, Robertson reported severe shoulder pain that kept her up at night, claiming she never experienced shoulder pain before the treatments. QC Kinetix encouraged her to continue the treatments, according to the lawsuit.
QC Kenetix did not tell Robertson the treatments were not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and did not give proper loan cancellation procedure notice as prescribed by the Federal Trade Commission, the lawsuit claims.
Colgate, Taco Bell, Pacific Coast Producers, Tesla, A&W, Keurig Dr Pepper, Curaleaf, DreamCloud and Inventure Foods all faced false advertising class action lawsuits last year.

25 thoughts onQC Kinetix class action alleges company makes false, misleading statements about treatments
I went to QC Kinetics in Mount Pleasant SC. I was suffering from neck pain. They told me they could help and I paid them $5,000.00 cash for PRP treatments and stem cell injections. I was informed the stem cells were human stem cells. They make you sign an air tight contract. The procedures were very painful and did nothing for me and basically they said i was out of luck and none of my money was refundable. Now I hear they were injecting people with animal cells. I have no idea what they put in me. How do I become a part of this class action suit or start one in my state.

Seems as if the Attorney Campbell from MA should have a complaint filed against Q C Kinetix. It is amazing that it should start now. What a scam…
Started going to QC kinetics after I couldn’t lose weight for the orthopedic surgeon QC kinetics went and got my x-ray from my doctor that showed bone spurs and arthritis they said they could help I went four times stem cell injections the first three bone marrow the fourth one I believe which was leaving bruising the size of the golf ball to a softball called Dennis up at my local QC kinetics with no response I have all of this information on my phone he said he reached out several times and concern and I have not deleted anything so after the bruising started I never went back went to another orthopedic they took another x-ray and three quarters of my ball that fits into the socket on my hip was disintegrated
I went to QC Kinetix 2 years ago for an arthritic shoulderand they said I was a perfect candidate for this procedure, I asked if they would take an xray and they told me they didn’t need to because this stem cell procedure will work no problem! And I went for the bait ! 8000 dollars and I’m still paying , And I just had my shoulder replaced ! More money ! So I think I got ripped off !
They got me for 13k south bend Indiana!!
I am also a victim of QC Kinetix Atlanta Ga , one hour visit to their office in Norcross Ga about my pain in both knees turned my every day life into a nightmare, I was under high sales pressure for unnecessary procedure and had me sign up with a loan of $8500 just for one knee of treatment I owe for that one day . after several attempt to contact provider to discuss for balance to be refunded but they never respond back. truly I don’t know how they are allowed to preform such a thing by scamming individuals and try to get away with it.
(such a clinics should be shut down period)
I was pressured into buying into it.. 7,000 for 1 knee and they did a complentry injection into my right knee I only went once and I wanted to cancel all other appointments and they high pressured me again I don’t want to go and I’m willing to pay for the one injection how do I get out of this
Yes I would love to talk to an atty
My 19-year-old son, injured his knee and thought he would take care of it by himself. He went to QC kinetix in Atlanta and they had him finance about $4,000 in stem cell injections. They did nothing and when he told his mom and I about it we took him to the doctor and it turns out he had a completely torn ACL that required surgery. So now we have paid the deductible for our surgery and he’s still on the hook for the $4,000.
I went in with pain in one knee. They pressured me into both knees. On the spot financing. Of course the treatment didn’t help and I’m still paying on it. I get so angry when I hear their commercials on the radio.
