Medically Integrated Chiropractor
in Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres
Chronic pain, disc injuries, and post-accident conditions don't always respond to adjustments alone. Novaré Injury Care and Rehab pairs a Medical Director with a Trauma Team Certified chiropractor across two Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres clinics, giving you diagnostic imaging, medical oversight, and advanced treatment technology in a single visit.
Medically integrated chiropractic care at Novaré Injury Care and Rehab in Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres, FL, under the direction of Dr. Ivan Bracic, DC.
What Is a Medically Integrated Chiropractic Practice?
A medically integrated chiropractic practice combines chiropractic care with physician-level medical oversight. Instead of a standalone DC office where adjustments are the only tool, a medically integrated clinic has multiple doctors available to assist with patient care.
What this means for your care:
- MD and DC collaborate on diagnosis and treatment planning
- On-site digital x-rays with MRI coordination
- EMC determinations for full PIP benefits (up to $10,000)
- Prescription coordination when needed
- Neurosurgery referral network for complex cases
- Legal-grade documentation for accident cases
- Licensed Medical Corporation, not a chiropractic-only office
How Is This Different from a Regular Chiropractor?
Most chiropractic offices have one doctor, one adjustment table, and limited diagnostic tools. Here's how Novaré compares:
Diagnostic Depth
Regular chiropractors often adjust based on physical exam alone. We image every patient first with digital x-rays, coordinate MRI when needed, and Dr. Bracic reads every scan himself.
Medical Oversight
Dr. Javier Sosa, MD, provides physician oversight for complex cases. This allows EMC determinations, prescription coordination, and management of cases that chiropractic licensure alone can't cover.
Advanced Equipment
$25,000 flexion-distraction tables. DRX9000 and AccuSPINA decompression. AI-guided Class IV lasers. Knee-On-Trac. Shockwave therapy.
Legal Documentation
We record seat position at impact, collision angle, neurological findings, and treatment progression with objective measurements. Dr. Bracic has supported over 10,000 legal cases.
