If you were recently in an auto accident and are filing a personal injury claim, your attorney will recommend that you visit a chiropractor for auto injury treatment. In order to prove damages or injuries in a personal injury lawsuit, you need an official diagnosis and prognosis from a medical specialist. At Duluth Chiropractic and Wellness Center, our chiropractor Dr. Steven Sommer has decades of experience in auto injury treatment in Duluth, GA. Take a look at how he can help you with your personal injury claim after an auto accident. 

Official Diagnosis and Prognosis

Dr. Sommer will perform a comprehensive physical examination and screen you for common auto injuries. The most common auto injuries we see are whiplash, concussion, head trauma, muscle sprains and strains, broken bones and fractures, and neurological issues. We will take an x-ray, MRI, or CT scan to diagnose your auto injuries and rule out certain conditions. We can then provide an official report that includes your diagnosis and prognosis. Your prognosis is our educated estimation of how your condition will progress and how many treatments will be required before you are healed or rehabilitated. 

Medical Documentation and Records

Your personal injury attorney will need medical documentation and records to attach as exhibits to your personal injury claim. We will preserve all evidence in your case and maintain meticulous records regarding your injuries, treatment, and progression. We will also provide copies of all medical bills to your attorney so they can request compensation in your lawsuit. 

Coordination With Your Personal Injury Attorney

We have extensive experience working with personal injury attorneys on auto injury cases. We will coordinate with your attorney and work closely with them to make sure they are aware of all changes in your health, treatment plan, and prognosis. We can also act as an expert witness at a hearing or trial, or undergo a deposition regarding your case.
