Specialty Injury Care Services in Utah

Concussion Management & Treatment

Evidence-Based Care for Every Stage of Concussion Recovery.

Concussions are one of the most under diagnosed and untreated injuries of an auto accident. We screen every patient that has been in an auto accident for symptoms and signs. From pre-season baseline testing to post-injury treatment and rehabilitation, our team works closely with primary care physicians to help patients safely return to their day-to-day lives. Using proven strategies—including exertional testing, neurocognitive assessments, and customized rehabilitation—we ensure safe, individualized recovery plans guided by the latest research and international best practices.

Stress-Free Billing & Insurance Support

We Work With Your Auto Insurance

We can handle the billing process by directly working with all car insurance companies, whether it’s the auto insurance of the person at-fault or your personal insurance under the PIP (Personal Injury Protection) policy. This means that you won’t have to worry about paying out of your pocket for your medical care. We take care of the paperwork and negotiations with the insurance companies, so you can focus on your recovery without the financial stress. Our commitment is to ensure that you receive the necessary treatment and care, and we’ll work with insurance to make it happen.
