For over 65 years, Keith Clinic has helped Charlotte accident patients recover properly — not just quickly. Six locations. Same-day appointments. We work with your attorney and your insurer.
“…After my accident I could barely turn my neck. Six weeks later I can do everything I did prior to my accident. I highly recommend this clinic — they know their jobs, each and every one of them.”
“My daughter and I were extremely tired after the car accident, our bodies were in pain — but the team here put us at ease immediately. The treatments from Dr. Dean Estramonte have made a world of difference in my daily comfort.”
“I went there because I suffered injuries as a result of a car accident. The treatment and service were excellent. They helped me with my injuries and the accumulated stress. I would definitely go back and highly recommend them.”
Same-day or next-day intake
Our chiropractors have treated thousands of accident patients across Charlotte. They know how to read the injuries accidents cause, how to treat them progressively, and how to document them properly.
Dr. Estramonte is the owner and clinic director of Keith Clinic Estramonte Chiropractic, which he has led since taking over the practice founded by Dr. Fletcher in 1959. He has spent decades treating accident patients and injury cases across Charlotte.
Dr. Jayne brings a personalised, attentive approach to accident injury treatment. Patients consistently recognise her for thoroughness in evaluation and genuine care throughout recovery.
Dr. Dean Estramonte is among the most-reviewed doctors at Keith Clinic, with patients specifically citing him after car accident treatment. He is known for explaining injuries clearly and pushing patients through to full recovery.
Patients treated
“I was treated here for an accident and everyone was so friendly. They took great care of me and answered all my questions. Dr. Dean is great — I’ve never felt better. I’ll refer everyone in need of chiropractic care.”
“I attended this facility because of a horrible car accident. Dr. Lara and Dr. Dean listened to every issue and helped me to the best of their ability. If you have a car accident and need a place that feels like love with people that actually care — this is the place.”
“My vehicle was a total loss. Keith Clinic restored my motion, attitude, and function.”
The at-fault driver’s liability insurance typically covers your medical treatment, including chiropractic care. If you have MedPay or PIP (Personal Injury Protection) on your own policy, that may also apply regardless of fault. We verify coverage before your first visit — no surprises.
Many accident patients come to us through a referral from their attorney — and many more leave here and then connect with one. We work with personal injury attorneys regularly and understand how the process works.
If you need to defer payment until your case settles, ask us about medical lien arrangements. You receive treatment now. We are paid when your claim resolves.
“This is my second go-round — two separate accidents — and I told my lawyer the second time: I’m going back to Keith. Periodt. I come in after work and after an 8-hour shift I leave feeling 23. Ready to do flips in the parking lot.”
“Everyone in this place is so nice and caring. I came in with upper back pain from an accident and feel great — thanks to everyone, especially Dr. Arnold. I would recommend this place every time.”
“I was in a car accident and decided to come to Keith Clinic. When I say my body healed in a short time — I felt at home as well. She really cares for her patients and tries her best to make you smile when you are worried and in pain.”
No. You can book directly — no referral from a physician or attorney is required. Many of our patients call us the same day as their accident.
As soon as possible — ideally within 24 to 72 hours. Whiplash and soft tissue injuries often don’t cause pain immediately, but they worsen without treatment. Early documentation also matters if you pursue a legal claim. Same-day appointments are available at all six locations.
The most common are whiplash, neck pain, lower back pain, headaches, shoulder injuries, herniated discs, and nerve pain or numbness. Many of these don’t appear on emergency room imaging but are very real and very treatable.
Yes. We work with personal injury attorneys regularly. We document all treatment in a way that supports your case, and we offer medical lien arrangements for patients who need to defer payment until their claim settles.
Often yes. The at-fault driver’s liability coverage typically applies to your medical treatment. MedPay or PIP coverage on your own policy may cover you regardless of fault. We verify your coverage before your first visit at no charge.
The emergency room is the right first stop for acute emergencies — broken bones, head trauma, internal injuries. But ERs are not set up to diagnose or treat soft tissue injuries, spinal misalignment, or whiplash. Chiropractic care addresses the injuries accident patients are typically sent home with, untreated.
Yes — and this is important. Adrenaline after a collision masks pain. Whiplash and soft tissue injuries frequently don’t become symptomatic until 24 to 72 hours later, sometimes longer. Coming in while you feel okay lets us get ahead of the pain rather than chase it.
It depends on the severity of your injuries. Many patients see significant improvement within 4 to 8 weeks of consistent treatment. Your chiropractor will give you a specific timeline after your initial assessment.
Yes. Fault doesn’t determine your eligibility for care. What matters is that you were in an accident and your body needs treatment. We’ll work with whatever insurance situation you have.
