Auto Accident Chiropractor in Gaithersburg, MD

If you've been in an auto accident in Gaithersburg, Potomac, Rockville, Germantown, Poolesville, or anywhere in Montgomery County, get evaluated as soon as possible — even if you feel "mostly okay." Whiplash, soft tissue injuries, and post-collision muscle guarding often don't show up for days after the crash, and early evaluation makes a real difference in how quickly and completely you recover.

At Potomac Valley Chiropractic, our practice has 25+ years of experience treating auto accident injuries. Dr. Theodore can combine chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, dry needling, traction, cupping, and therapeutic exercise into a personalized recovery plan.

Auto accident injuries can be obvious or subtle. Even low-speed rear-end collisions cause significant whiplash and soft tissue injuries — and the symptoms often build up over days as inflammation sets in and guarded muscles tighten down.

We commonly treat:

Care starts with a personalized exam, an orthopedic and neurological screen, and a clear conversation about what we found and what your care plan looks like. We document everything carefully from day one — both because it's better medicine and because it's the information that any personal injury attorney will need later.

Your first visit takes about 45 minutes and includes intake, a thorough exam, a clear plain-language explanation of what we found, and a personalized care plan. Many patients receive their first treatment that same day.

We work with all major auto insurance carriers and accept PIP (Personal Injury Protection) and MedPay benefits in Maryland. If you're working with a personal injury attorney, we'll coordinate with their office for documentation and (when appropriate) Letter of Protection / lien-based billing arrangements.

Maryland auto insurance policies typically include Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and may also include MedPay coverage. These benefits are designed to cover medical care after a crash — including chiropractic care — regardless of fault, up to the policy's coverage limit.

Our office team will verify your auto insurance benefits, explain your coverage clearly before treatment begins, and coordinate directly with your auto insurance carrier (and your attorney, if you have one) for billing.

Potomac Valley Chiropractic has worked with personal injury cases for 25+ years and understands what your case needs from a treating medical provider. We're not a high-volume "PI mill" — we're a respected community chiropractic clinic with 5,000+ patients treated and a 5.0 / 189 Google review reputation, which means our documentation, treatment notes, and clinical opinions carry weight with adjusters, mediators, and juries.

We work professionally with personal injury attorneys representing clients injured in motor vehicle accidents in Montgomery County and across Maryland. Our goal is straightforward: deliver excellent care to your client and clear, well-documented medical records to support your case.

Documentation matters as much as the care itself in a PI case. Here's what we provide:

If you have a client who needs treatment after a motor vehicle accident, the easiest path is to call our office directly at (301) 869-0006 with the client on the line, or to email us at [the office] with the client's name, contact information, and a brief summary of the accident and current symptoms.

We'll schedule the initial evaluation (often same-day or next-day), confirm any PIP / MedPay / LOP arrangement, and keep your office in the loop with progress updates and timely documentation. We don't pay referral fees and don't engage in fee-splitting arrangements — but we will treat your client carefully, document thoroughly, and communicate clearly throughout the case.
