In most cases, your auto accident insurance will pay 100% for the cost of your chiropractic care. Our Office can assist you in obtaining this information. Using your medical coverage should not raise your premiums.

Documented studies done by Charles Carroll, M.D., Paul McAtee, M.D. and Lee Riley, M.D. revealed that: “The amount of damage to the automobile bears little relation to the force applied to the cervical spine (neck) of the occupants.” In other words, the damage to the passengers is not necessarily directly related to the damage to the vehicle. Thus all auto accident injuries need to be immediately evaluated by a qualified chiropractor like Dr. Joel Dickson, D.C.

You need a doctor who is skilled in providing the necessary care and diagnosis of auto accident injuries. Usually hospitals will check vital signs, make sure there are no life-threatening conditions or broken bones and release the patient with pain relief medication and muscle relaxers. They normally do not provide healthcare for the underlying injuries that can often lead to future pain. Thus, after your hospital visit you need to make an immediate appointment with a chiropractor like Dr. Joel Dickson, D.C.

Yes. The care is safe and gentle. In fact, we have patients that range from newborn infants, children, to the elderly who receive effective relief of pain and other types of symptoms.

The care is relaxing and very gentle. Dr. Dickson uses a gentle type of chiropractic technique, which is very gentle and can be used with the elderly and babies.

Do not sign or settle anything until you have consulted with an auto accident injury chiropractor. If you settle before your injury is fully resolved, you will risk having to pay out of pocket for your care.

A Doctors lien is an agreement between the doctor and the patient. The doctor agrees to not be reimbursed for his services until the case is settled or until the insurance company pays the doctor directly.
