Auto Accidents

What You Should Know If You Have Been

Involved In An Auto Accident

Did you know that one of the most stressful aspects of living in modern life is dealing with the problems that arise after an accident?  Were you also aware that some auto accident injuries are hidden and are seldom noticed for months or even years?  As a result, your injury is not taken care of properly, and the accident victims settle their case with the insurance companies before getting evaluated from a Doctor trained in soft tissue injuries. 

This could be a big mistake because once you settle your case, you lose the right to have your insurance company pay for treatment if you need it.  A good rule of thumb is to be informed of your rights and then make a decision.  It is our position that if you were injured, you should get the care you need to get back to the way you felt before the accident.  It is not the responsibility of the insurance company to pay for anything more than that.  They are not responsible for pre-existing injuries; ony the injuries sustained from the accident.  Even if you are just sore, you should get checked out immediately because you may experience pain, headaches, muscle stiffness, fatigue, and other problems months down the road.  Remember, nothing is more important than your health, especially when you start to lose it.

Most doctors are not trained in the dectection of these hidden injuries.  If you have been in an auto accident, you need a doctor who is trained in the biomechanics of the human body.  Someone who treats injuries, just like yours, every day.  In addition, x-rays can be taken to find out if there is any structual damage.  In our office, we evaluate auto accident victims and make any appropriate referrals to other health care providers as needed.

Our primary responsibilities are giving you the right care, if you need it, and submitting the required medical reports to the insurance company so your rights are protected.
