To get treatment for your injuries it is not necessary to go to the ER. We see many patients who have not gone to the ER first. What we recommend, as well as all other doctors, is that you should go if you feel you have an emergency. Or, if you think you have a head injury or other injuries which might be serious and need immediate attention, definitely go. But going to the ER after an accident is not a requirement to receive care and treatment for your injuries.
After you are seen in the ER, you can come in and see our doctors, get evaluated and receive therapy if needed. If you need to see a specialist, your Accident and Injury doctor can refer you to one. Your Accident and Injury doctor will also request your medical records from the hospital to review and include in your Accident and Injury file.
The bottom line is this; you can go to the ER and also come to us for the rest of your care.
