Dr. Gentry treats various auto accidents and personal injuries, including:
After a traumatic injury, visit a qualified medical provider, even if you think you’re fine. A prompt and accurate diagnosis can identify problems early on and prevent them from worsening.
Dr. Gentry reviews your medical records and asks about your injury or accident, including when it occurred, what you were doing, and if you have any pain or other symptoms. Next, he completes a chiropractic exam, checking your skin and surrounding areas for bruising, redness, or swelling.
He gently presses your skin to pinpoint sensitive places and tests your reflexes, muscle strength, and flexibility. Then, Dr. Gentry orders diagnostic imaging, like X-rays or an ultrasound, to check for damage to your bones, joints, or soft tissues.
