Synergy Cell Institute (SCI) was founded on a singular vision: to usher in a new era of medicine where personalized, science-driven regenerative care replaces the limitations of traditional approaches. Based in the Tampa Bay area (St. Petersburg, FL), we are dedicated to being the definitive authority in nonsurgical regenerative medicine.
Our work is rooted in clinical expertise, rigorous research, and an unwavering commitment to integrity. We do not chase fads; we advance the science. SCI integrates the most cutting-edge cellular and organobiologic therapies—including stem cells, exosomes, and advanced peptides—to restore not just function, but the full vitality, resilience, and confidence of every patient we serve.
We believe that medicine is most effective when it is highly specific, thoroughly investigated, and always patient-centered. This is the white-glove, whole-person approach that defines Synergy Cell Institute.

The strength of Synergy Cell Institute lies in the combined three decades of experience and expertise of our co-founders. They bring a rare synergy of board-certified functional medicine, orthopedic surgery, and clinical research to the practice of regenerative therapy.
Dr. Civelli is a double board-certified physician in Family Medicine (ABFM) and Functional & Regenerative Medicine (ABAARM). A respected entrepreneur, educator, and researcher, her career has always bridged the gap between conventional medical rigor and innovation.
Credentials and Authority:
Dr. Civelli’s clinical practice is driven by a mission to innovate, educate, and empower, ensuring every patient receives solutions that are both personalized and scientifically sound.

Tim Pace, PA-C, anchors our practice with 18 years of specialized experience in orthopedic surgery, sports medicine, and advanced regenerative injectables. Inspired by the limitations of surgery for chronic conditions, Tim is dedicated to helping patients achieve healing and transformation without invasive risk.
Credentials and Expertise:
Tim’s passion is rooted in seeing patients reclaim mobility and rediscover the active, fulfilling lives that pain and degenerative diseases had put on hold.

We believe education is the first step toward effective treatment. A critical part of our approach is clinical honesty: "A lot of what we do is say, 'no, do the normal things first.'" We guide patients through foundational health optimizations before proceeding to advanced cellular therapies, ensuring we select the right procedure for the right reason, every time.
In a rapidly evolving field, integrity and education are paramount. Our mission is two-fold:

To deliver results-driven care for chronic conditions like osteoarthritis, joint injuries, and pain management that keep you from the activities you love. We start by asking, "What is the root cause?"

To elevate the standard of regenerative care industry-wide. We actively teach masterclass courses in Orthopaedic Injectables and offer the SCI Mentorship Program, providing certification, research access, and direct guidance to providers committed to clinical excellence.
Whether you are a patient seeking to manage persistent pain and reclaim your mobility or a provider looking for a certification in advanced regenerative techniques, you have found a partner dedicated to clinical excellence and advancing the science. Contact us to get started today.
