Even if you only have a minor injury after an auto accident, it’s important to seek medical care from a professional. At Duluth Chiropractic and Wellness Center, our chiropractor Dr. Steven Sommer offers same-day auto injury treatment in Duluth, GA. He will perform a comprehensive evaluation and diagnostic testing and screen you for common auto injuries. Without treatment, auto injuries can get worse over time and end up causing chronic health complications. Here’s a look at our process for evaluating auto injuries. 

Initial Consultation and Discussion

During your first visit with our team, we will discuss your symptoms and answer any questions you have. We want you to get to know our team and determine if we are a good fit for your needs and goals. We will go over our treatment philosophy with you, and outline our services and your auto injury treatment options. We will ask you questions about your auto accident, your health and medical history, and any past injuries or surgeries you have had. We can also refer you to a specialist if your case is not chiropractic. 

Comprehensive Examination and Screening

Next, we will conduct a comprehensive physical examination. We may ask you to complete simple physical movements in front of us so we can evaluate your flexibility, range of motion, reflexes, dexterity, gait, and posture. We will also conduct thorough screenings for common auto injuries, including whiplash, concussion, head trauma, and neurological conditions. 

Diagnostic Testing

Then we will recommend diagnostic testing and imaging. We have access to state-of-the-art equipment and will use diagnostic imaging tests to diagnose or rule out auto injuries. The results of your tests will help us design the most effective chiropractic and rehabilitation plan. We may take an x-ray, MRI, or CT scan. 

Treatment Plan and Continuing Care

We typically offer same-day treatment so you can get pain relief as quickly as possible. The sooner we begin treatment, the less likely you are to experience recurring or chronic pain, complications, dysfunction, or mobility issues. We offer personalized chiropractic care that is tailored to each patient’s individual needs, goals, health, and lifestyle. We will also draw up a continuing care plan that will provide ongoing treatment designed to get you back to your normal daily activities, pain-free.
