Have you been in a car accident in Sarasota County?
If you’ve been in a car accident, Dr. Craig Barcomb—a trusted Sarasota chiropractic chiropractor and experienced Gonstead practitioner—has been helping auto accident injury patients recover for over 35 years. He has successfully treated hundreds of individuals suffering from whiplash, neck pain, back pain, shoulder and extremity pain, numbness, and loss of mobility.
At the Car Accident Injury Clinic at West Coast Spine Center in Sarasota, we understand exactly what you’re going through. Physical pain after an accident can be overwhelming on its own—but dealing with PIP (Personal Injury Protection) insurance claims at the same time adds even more stress. That’s why you should choose the best auto accident chiropractor in Sarasota to guide you through your recovery.
Your journey back to health starts with getting the right medical evaluation and treatment immediately after your car crash. Delaying care could not only worsen your condition but also risk losing your PIP coverage—in Florida, you only have 14 days to seek medical care after an accident.
Don’t Delay Care After an Auto Accident – Protect Your Health and PIP Coverage
After an auto accident, symptoms such as pain, numbness, and loss of mobility are not always immediate. Whiplash, neck pain, back pain, and other injuries may take days or even weeks to fully appear. Don’t let this delayed onset fool you—waiting too long can cause your condition to worsen and can also cost you valuable PIP (Personal Injury Protection) insurance coverage.
In Florida, you have only 14 days from the date of your accident to seek medical evaluation and treatment. Failing to do so means you will not be eligible for PIP coverage under your auto insurance policy. Unfortunately, many people call an attorney first after a crash, but attorneys cannot treat your injuries or protect your health.
Call West Coast Spine Center in Sarasota first. Our Sarasota chiropractic chiropractor, Dr. Craig Barcomb, specializes in Gonstead chiropractic care, auto accident therapy, and physical therapy to accurately diagnose and treat accident-related injuries. By getting the right medical attention within 14 days, you’ll protect your health, preserve your PIP coverage, and then have the option to consult an attorney if needed.

What to Expect at the Car Accident Injury Clinic – West Coast Spine Center Sarasota
At West Coast Spine Center in Sarasota, Dr. Craig Barcomb, head of the Car Accident Injury Clinic, is the only Gonstead chiropractic physician in this region of Florida. The Gonstead method is widely recognized as the gold standard for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of auto accident injuries, whiplash, neck pain, back pain, and other spinal conditions.
Here, we don’t just treat symptoms—we use them to identify the root cause of your problem. Then we address that cause directly, allowing you to return to the active lifestyle you deserve as quickly and safely as possible.
The Gonstead Evaluation Process
When you choose Dr. Craig Barcomb for your auto accident therapy, you will receive a thorough, targeted evaluation that may include:
-
Comprehensive physical examination
-
X-rays to assess spinal structure and injury
-
Motion palpation to evaluate joint mobility
-
Nervoscope and thermographic imaging to detect inflammation and pinpoint injured spinal areas
These tools allow Dr. Barcomb to locate the exact source of your injury. According to Dr. Barcomb:
“The most unique difference with Gonstead versus more conventional chiropractic methods lies in the adjustment technique itself. We work with the spine’s natural joint structure. For example, Gonstead cervical spine adjustments are performed posterior-to-anterior (back to front), avoiding the twisting motions used in other techniques. This precision makes Gonstead highly effective in diagnosing and treating auto accident injuries.”

-
Corrective Gonstead chiropractic therapy
