Personal Injury Doctors on Long Island
Injured in a car accident, at work, or a fall on Long Island? Our board-certified pain management, spine, and orthopedic team treats accident injuries across Nassau and Suffolk County — and documents them thoroughly for your no-fault or workers’ compensation claim.
Treatment and Documentation for Your Injury
A personal-injury case depends on two things going right: getting the injured person the care they need, and creating a clear medical record of what happened. We do both. Our specialists evaluate and treat your injury with a minimally invasive approach, and we document your diagnosis, treatment, and progress thoroughly — the record your no-fault carrier, workers’ compensation, or attorney relies on.
Who We Help
A personal injury doctor is the physician who diagnoses, treats, and documents injuries after an accident. On Long Island we regularly care for people hurt in:
- Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents — treated under New York no-fault (PIP) coverage.
- Work injuries — treated and documented for workers’ compensation.
- Slip, trip, and fall injuries — on sidewalks, stairs, at stores, or at work.
- Pedestrian and bicycle injuries.
You do not need to wait weeks to be checked. After an accident, an early evaluation supports your recovery and starts a clear medical record from day one.
Accident Injuries We Treat
Accidents most often injure the spine, joints, and soft tissue. We commonly treat:
- Neck pain and whiplash
- Back pain, herniated and bulging discs, and sciatica
- Shoulder, knee, and hip injuries
- Sprains, strains, and other soft-tissue injuries
- Nerve pain and pinched nerves
How We Treat Accident Injuries
We use a step-and-ladder approach: start with the least invasive option that can solve the problem and only move up if needed. That usually means physical therapy and targeted medication first, then image-guided injections such as epidural steroid injections or radiofrequency ablation when appropriate, and minimally invasive spine or orthopedic procedures only when conservative care is not enough. Because interventional pain management, orthopedics, and spine surgery are all under one roof, you do not need a separate referral to move between them.
Where We Serve on Long Island
Our Long Island offices make it easy to see an injury specialist close to home in both counties:

What to Expect
Your first visit starts with a full evaluation of your injury and, when needed, imaging to confirm the diagnosis. From there we build a treatment plan aimed at getting you back to your normal activities, and we document each step for your claim. Most people are seen quickly after an accident so care and paperwork start without delay.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept no-fault and workers’ compensation?
Yes. We treat and document motor-vehicle injuries under New York no-fault (PIP) and work injuries under workers’ compensation. Our team can help verify your coverage before your visit.
How soon should I see a doctor after an accident?
As soon as you can. Early evaluation supports your recovery and starts a clear medical record. Some injuries, like whiplash and disc problems, may not feel their worst until days later.
Do I need a lawyer to be treated?
No. You can come to us directly for evaluation and treatment. If you already have an attorney, we can coordinate the medical documentation they need.
What injuries do you treat?
Neck and back injuries, herniated discs, sciatica, shoulder, knee, and hip injuries, nerve pain, and soft-tissue injuries — the injuries most common after car accidents, work injuries, and falls.
