NOTICE TO MY PATIENTS:
A Recent Discovery Reveals An Injury Is Being Missed 45% Of The Time In Auto Accidents That May Constitute Malpractice And Severely Damage The Injury Claim And Your Health.
I am a member of a select group of chiropractic doctors expertly trained and certified in cervical ligament injuries, concussions and vertebral fractures. I am a contributing author along with several of my peers as we gather at training and collaborate together to create educational material and research for our patients and legal representatives. Impact forces produce complex injury syndromes and our aim is help patients and plaintiff's attorneys to better understand the mechanism of the forces that cause injury to the cervical spine and head during impact.
I am proud to have studied to acquire a very high level of skill and confidence in accident related cases.
My staff and I are very Knowledgeable, friendly, dedicated and eager to help with your treatment and injury claim processing.
Our patients know that when they choose our office, they can feel good that they have made the right decision.
Our patient satisfaction rating has been consistently high and our patients realize that we care about them and we are thoroughly knowledgeable in auto accident related treatment & case representation. This is based not only on our successful treatment and resolve of a patient’s condition and claim representation, but also because people need to know their doctor cares about them as much as he is knowledgeable about their injuries.
We operate our clinic under a core set of values: Excellence, Integrity, leadership, Loyalty, Respect & Selfless Service. We practice with 3 basic principles: Make an accurate diagnosis by taking a thorough history, performing a comprehensive examination and ordering the proper diagnostics. We believe in the importance of patient education, doctors should teach their patients what is wrong with them so they understand so they can make decisions about their care. Discuss what options exist outside of our office, including self management, co-management with another healthcare provider or an outright referral if the patient is not a candidate or prefers a 2nd opinion.
