Question:
Should I see a doctor after a personal injury?
Answer:
If you’ve sustained a serious personal injury here in Texas, the first thing I’m going to say to you is I hope you went to the emergency room.
I hope you called a doctor, for no other reason than you need to make sure you’re okay. This isn’t a guessing game. Don’t worry about your legal rights first; worry about your health. We always say at our firm there’s two paths you’re going down right now: one is your health, dealing with your injuries, and the other is your legal rights. Hire an experienced personal injury lawyer to take care of all the legal action, and you focus on your health. Go see your primary care doctor. Go to the emergency room. Maybe they’re going to refer you to an orthopedic doctor for orthopedic injuries or a neurologist because you’ve got something going on there. All of these things need to be dealt with by appropriate medical professionals.
