Even a minor automobile accident can be traumatic for those involved. The amount of damage to the vehicle does not necessarily correlate to the automobile accident injuries received. In some cases, serious injuries may not be apparent for several days. Common car accident injuries include:

  • Brain injury and neurological damage
  • Spine injury
  • Neck injury and whiplash
  • Lacerations and abrasions

Get Medical Attention Immediately After Your Car Accident

Don’t assume that because you don’t feel hurt, you aren’t hurt. Our bodies can ignore symptoms of injury or we simply want to believe we are okay. Other injuries do not present themselves immediately and can grow worse with time.

In addition to the medical benefits of seeing a doctor immediately after an auto accident, there are also many issues surrounding insurance and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) benefits.

  • Coverage is voided if you do not seek treatment within 14 days of the accident
  • Authorized treatment options include the ER, a primary care physician, or Florida Physical Medicine
  • Active auto coverage can be yours, your spouse, or your blood relative
  • Injured passengers may be eligible under the host vehicle’s coverage

Auto accident injuries are what our doctors specialize in. Our medical professionals are dedicated to diagnosing, treating, and rehabilitating any injuries you may have experienced.

Time is of the essence. In order to ensure the best possible recovery, seek medical care immediately following an accident.
