Have you or someone you know been involved in a car accident in Flower Mound TX?  Deciding where to receive the most effective and appropriate care following a car accident can be difficult and confusing.  However, this is a very important decision because of the vast number of injuries that often follow collisions, many of them not immediately noticeable.   

Hidden Damage:

The types of injuries following car accidents varies greatly and depends on a number of things including; the speed of both cars involved in the collision, the size of the cars, the position of the headrests, bracing for impact etc.  It is important to remember that the magnitude of the collision doesn’t always determine the severity of the ensuing injury.  Even minor accidents have caused severe damage to the spine, nervous, and other bodily systems. 

Medical Attention:
