Car Accident Care in Lakewood

Every Mountain View Pain Center chiropractor is trained in whiplash and auto-injury care. That is where it starts, not where it ends. Your care is delivered by a team — board-certified Pain Management physicians, the advanced-practice providers they supervise, chiropractors and physical therapists — all working from one chart, so the record your adjuster or attorney receives is complete and consistent. Medical transportation is available for accident patients, and it can be billed to the lien, so getting to appointments is not the thing that ends your treatment early.

Translation is available in any language at every visit, so a language barrier does not sit between you and your own treatment plan. We coordinate with your attorney where one is involved, and send records directly rather than making you collect them.

The roads

Where Crashes Happen in Lakewood

Lakewood collisions concentrate on US-6 through the 6th Avenue freeway corridor, C-470 at the southwest edge, and the long signalled runs of Wadsworth Boulevard, Colfax Avenue, Union Boulevard and Alameda through Belmar.

Wadsworth and Colfax produce a steady stream of rear-end impacts at lights, which is the classic whiplash mechanism. The 6th Avenue and C-470 merges produce the faster collisions, where nerve symptoms into an arm or leg are more common.

The first 72 hours

What to Do in the First Three Days

Soft tissue injuries typically peak two to three days after impact rather than on the day, which is why so many people leave a collision feeling fine and wake up on the third morning unable to turn their head.

  • Get assessed even if you feel alright. An early examination documents your condition at the start, which matters if symptoms appear later.
  • Keep moving gently. Complete rest stiffens a soft tissue injury; early controlled movement generally does better.
  • Write down what changes and when — what hurts, how much, and what you cannot do that you could before.
  • Go to an emergency department instead for loss of consciousness, confusion, a worsening headache, numbness or weakness that is getting worse, loss of bladder or bowel control, severe abdominal pain, chest pain or shortness of breath, or changes to your vision or speech.
Where you will be seen

The Lakewood clinic

The Lakewood clinic on South Union Boulevard serves Lakewood, Belmar, Green Mountain, Applewood and the western metro.

Pain Management, Physical Therapy, Chiropractic and Acupuncture are in the same building and on the same chart, so if a hands-on course is not enough the physician is down the corridor rather than a referral away. Interventional procedures are coordinated to the clinic equipped for them.

Paying for it

Billing After a Collision in Lakewood

Care after a crash is normally billed to med-pay, to a health plan, or against the claim itself on a lien. Which one applies is checked before treatment starts, so you know where you stand rather than finding out on a statement.

No referral is needed. If you are unsure whether you have med-pay, tell us your carrier and we will check it for you.

FAQs

Where can I get car accident injury treatment in Lakewood without a referral?

At our Lakewood clinic. No referral is needed to start treatment after a collision, and appointments are usually available within the same week.

How soon after a crash should I be seen in Lakewood?

Within the first few days where you can. Symptoms often peak two to three days after impact rather than on the day, and treatment is simpler before stiffness and guarding build on top of the original injury.

Do you bill med-pay in CO?

Yes. Care after a crash is normally billed to med-pay, to a health plan, or against the claim on a lien. We check which applies before treatment starts.

Is it too late if my Lakewood accident was months ago?

No. There is no clinical cut-off, and people begin treatment months afterwards and still improve.

Do I need to have an attorney to be treated?

No. We treat people with and without one. Where an attorney is involved we coordinate with them and send records directly.

Can I get transportation to appointments?

Medical transportation is available for accident patients and can be billed to the lien, so getting to appointments is not what ends a course of treatment early.

What if I do not speak English?

Translation is available in any language at every visit, so a language barrier does not sit between you and your treatment plan.

What injuries do you treat after a Lakewood collision?

Whiplash and neck strain, mid and low back injury, shoulder pain from the seatbelt, headaches, and nerve pain or numbness into an arm or leg. Every chiropractor here is trained in whiplash and auto-injury care.

A crash injury is easier to treat in the first week than in the second month.

Mountain View Pain Center treats crash injuries in Lakewood at our Lakewood clinic. No referral is needed, care is billed to med-pay, a health plan or against the claim, and appointments are usually available within the same week.
