First, make sure you and any passengers are safe, then call 911 to file a police report. Even if you feel fine at the scene, many car accident injuries like whiplash and soft tissue damage do not show symptoms until hours or days later. Seek a chiropractic evaluation as soon as possible to document any injuries. At Georgia Injury Network, we offer same-day appointments so you can get checked out right away. Call us at (470) 397-1527 or schedule online at [Request Appointment](/book-appointment).

You should see a chiropractor within 72 hours of a car accident, ideally sooner. Early treatment helps prevent acute injuries from becoming chronic conditions and creates the medical documentation you need if you file an insurance claim or personal injury case. Delaying treatment can also make it harder to link your symptoms to the accident. Contact Georgia Injury Network at (470) 397-1527 to schedule a same-day evaluation.

Yes, in most cases the at-fault driver’s auto insurance covers your chiropractic treatment in Georgia. If you have MedPay (Medical Payments Coverage) on your own policy, that can also cover treatment regardless of who was at fault. Georgia Injury Network works directly with auto insurance companies and personal injury attorneys to handle billing, so you typically pay nothing out of pocket while your case is open. Call (470) 397-1527 to learn more about your coverage options.

Most whiplash injuries improve significantly within 6 to 12 weeks with consistent chiropractic care, though some cases take longer depending on the severity of the impact and your overall health. Early intervention is key — patients who begin treatment soon after their accident tend to recover faster and more completely. Dr. Dierdorff will evaluate your specific condition and create a personalized treatment timeline. Book your first appointment at [Request Appointment](/book-appointment).

Yes. Numbness and tingling after a car accident are often caused by compressed or irritated nerves in the spine, which can result from whiplash or disc injuries. Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper spinal alignment and relieve pressure on the affected nerves. Dr. Dierdorff will perform a thorough examination to identify the source of your numbness and develop a targeted treatment plan. Call (470) 397-1527 if you are experiencing these symptoms.
