Now Open in West Hartford: Dr. Hans Knopp, DO

On June 17, 2026, Dr. Hans E. Knopp, DO, will open a new medical practice at 61 S Main St, Suite 308, in West Hartford, Connecticut. Dr. Knopp is an osteopathic physician, board certified in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Pain Medicine by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (ABPMR). He earned his medical degree from Rowan University School of Osteopathic Medicine. He then completed residency and advanced training at Tufts Medical Center and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. The practice focuses on musculoskeletal and sports-related conditions for patients across West Hartford and the greater Hartford region.

The practice is a direct-access concierge micropractice. It serves active adults, athletes, and people managing chronic or recurring musculoskeletal pain in West Hartford and the surrounding area. A limited patient panel lets the practice offer same-week appointments and direct phone and text contact with the physician. The goal is timely access and individual attention, without the administrative layers common in insurance-based settings.

What the Practice Offers

The practice offers regenerative medicine, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. The physician performs PRP under ultrasound guidance to target the specific structures involved in injury or degeneration. PRP may suit select patients with certain musculoskeletal or sports-related conditions. It is one part of a broader plan built around the individual's circumstances and goals. For a fuller explanation of how PRP works and who tends to be a candidate, see the guide to PRP injections for joint pain.

Dr. Knopp also provides osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT). OMT is a hands-on approach to evaluate and improve structural balance, mobility, and function in the musculoskeletal system. Care centers on musculoskeletal and sports-related conditions. Recommendations come from each patient's history, physical exam, and functional goals, with the physician directly involved in assessment and follow-up.

A Different Model: Direct-Access Concierge Care

The micropractice model keeps the patient panel small to protect appointment availability and continuity of care. Same-week appointments are standard, and patients reach Dr. Knopp directly by phone and text. There are no referral gatekeepers. You can contact the practice directly to arrange an evaluation, with no prior referral and no waiting on insurance authorization to start treatment. The post on direct access to your doctor explains what this looks like in practice.

The practice does not bill insurance. Payment is handled directly between the patient and the practice. That removes insurance pre-authorization delays, network referral requirements, and third-party processing. The result is fewer bureaucratic barriers, simpler scheduling and communication, and enough time for evaluation, discussion, and shared decisions at each visit.

Transparent Pricing

All services are direct-pay, with fees disclosed in advance. The initial visit is $450 for a 60-minute appointment. Follow-up visits are $250 for a 30-minute appointment. PRP procedures run between $1,250 and $3,000. The final cost depends on the structures treated and the specifics of the ultrasound-guided procedure.
