Truck accident · Brooklyn

Truck accident injury doctor in Brooklyn

A collision with a truck, tractor-trailer, delivery van or bus can injure the neck, back and joints, even if you felt fine at the scene. That holds whether you were in a car, on foot or on a bike. We see patients at our Brooklyn office, 2781 Shell Rd, Suite 101, Brooklyn, NY 11223.

Injuries we commonly treat

  • Whiplash and neck injuries
  • Low back pain and disc injuries
  • Shoulder, hip and knee injuries
  • Headaches after the impact
  • Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs

Your care in Brooklyn

For neck and back injuries after a truck crash, Brooklyn offers the doctor visit, physical therapy and cervical and lumbar traction in one place. Ashley Marcus, MD, practices physical medicine and rehabilitation and interventional pain management.

Everyone is different. Treatment options and results vary from person to person.

Heavier impact, a fuller plan

A collision with a heavier vehicle can mean several injuries at once: the neck, the low back and a shoulder or knee. In Brooklyn the plan can combine physical therapy, traction, occupational therapy for an arm or hand and, when needed, a pain procedure, without sending you to different practices. The same applies if you were walking or cycling in Gravesend, Bensonhurst or anywhere else in the borough.
