Auto Accident Injury Care
Car accidents can cause symptoms that appear immediately or develop over the next 24 to 72 hours.

Our multidisciplinary team coordinates care based on each patient's individual needs.
Q. Can attorneys refer clients directly to Aptiva Health?
A. Yes. Attorneys are welcome to recommend Aptiva Health to clients seeking evaluation and treatment after an injury. Most patients can schedule directly without a physician referral, allowing them to begin treatment as quickly as possible.
Q. How quickly can my client be seen?
A. Same-day appointments and walk-in injury evaluations are available for many patients. Aptiva Health also provides expedited access to orthopedic surgeons, spine specialists, physical therapy, advanced imaging, pain management, concussion care, and other specialties within one coordinated system.
Q. What makes Aptiva Health different from other injury clinics?
A. Rather than referring patients between multiple unrelated providers, Aptiva Health offers an integrated care model that brings together orthopedic surgery, spine care, physical therapy, advanced imaging, pain management, behavioral health, and rehabilitation under one organization. This coordinated approach helps reduce delays and simplifies communication throughout treatment.
Q. Does Aptiva Health provide documentation for legal and insurance claims?
A. Yes. Medical documentation is maintained throughout the patient's course of care. For workers' compensation cases, Aptiva Health also provides required documentation, reporting, return-to-work planning, functional capacity evaluations (FCEs), impairment ratings (PPI), independent medical examinations (IMEs), and narrative reports when appropriate.
Q. Does Aptiva Health treat both auto accident and workers' compensation injuries?
A. Yes. Aptiva Health treats patients injured in motor vehicle accidents as well as those injured on the job. Care is coordinated across multiple specialties depending on the patient's injuries and treatment needs.

Q. What should someone do after a car accident?

Early evaluation can help identify injuries and begin appropriate treatment.
