  • What should I do after being injured in a car accident?

    Seeking immediate medical evaluation is critical after any car crash, even if you do not feel pain right away. We specialize in accident and injury recovery, focusing on identifying underlying spinal misalignments, whiplash, and soft tissue damage that may worsen over time. Our team creates personalized chiropractic treatment plans to relieve pain, restore range of motion, and prevent chronic issues. We also document your injuries thoroughly to support any necessary documentation. Do not delay your recovery; reach out to us today to schedule an evaluation and start your journey back to pain-free living.

  • How does a DOT physical exam work and who needs one?

    A DOT physical is a mandatory health exam required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to ensure commercial motor vehicle drivers are physically fit to operate safely. During the exam, we review your medical history, check your vision and hearing, measure blood pressure, and conduct a physical examination. We also offer required DOT drug and alcohol testing to help drivers and employers remain compliant with federal regulations. Our process is quick, efficient, and designed to get you back on the road safely. Contact our team today to book your certified DOT physical exam.

  • What are Maximum Medical Improvement and Impairment Ratings?

    Maximum Medical Improvement, or MMI, is a clinical determination indicating that a patient's injury has healed as much as it expectedly will with treatment. Once we determine you have reached MMI, we can perform an Impairment Rating to assess any lasting physical limitations. As a Designated Doctor in Texas and licensed professional in New Mexico, we specialize in conducting these precise evaluations for workers' compensation and injury cases. We ensure all documentation is handled with the utmost professional excellence and accuracy. Contact us today to schedule your specialized MMI evaluation with our expert team.
