    Need advice, would like to get my neck and pain checked out after a car accident.
    What would people recommend - spinologist ? acupuncturist? chiropractor?
    not sure if these can be included in the doctors report/claim

    A registered physiotherapist is the best bet, some are better than others but all are qualified to assess and treat you.

    I have a friend who is a “physical therapist” and I thought it interesting recently he had a knee injury himself and he went to a registered physiotherapist for his treatment.

    At least a registered physiotherapist can supply a proper credible report afterwards.

    your GP should be able to recommend a professional.

    Don’t forget homeopathy and psychic on your list of things that don’t work that you can waste money on, OP.

    Chiropractors are quacks, a butcher or builder has as much right to call themselves a doctor.

    One left me with two injuries ten years ago when I visited him about one.

    Would you go to a toothiologist for a filling?

    Don’t waste your money on madeyuppyology.
