What Patients Say
"Dr. Tropea is a practical, no fluff chiropractic doctor who treated my cervical spine after a car accident. I felt significant improvement with each appointment, the decompression/traction machine for my neck particularly helped. He also helped me apply for state disability benefits and walked me through the process so I felt more at ease. He is experienced with personal injury accidents and made me feel comfortable asking questions since this was completely new to me."
Tiffany Chen
"Dr. Tropea is the best of the best! I was in 2 accidents within a year of each other and I was referred to him through my attorney. I was greeted from his front desk staff. They are very professional and courteous. Some light introductory paper work, then greeted by Dr. Tropea, followed with a short assessment. I was given an adjustment and some at home tips for help."
Angela Velez
"After my accident, I was completely broken both physically and emotionally. In that dark phase, Dr. l tony tropea,DC was nothing less than a blessing. Words truly cannot express my gratitude. They are incredibly friendly, deeply caring, and possess a healing touch. Their warm words alone could heal half the pain. Thanks to their exceptional treatment and emotional support, I am fully recovered today. A truly trustworthy doctor with a golden heart!"
Mahesh Amagain
"Dr. Tropea is very thorough. Nice, clean office. Easy to get an appointment. I just went in with the new diagnoses that my shoulder is frozen on top of just wanting some back work and he did some sort of a movement and I have so much more flexibility right now. I will be back every week"
Elana
"I was experiencing debilitating back pain for months after a car accident I was involved in. Then after a few months with Dr. Tropea I've noticed a huge difference. The adjustments have not only helped with the pain, but also with my overall posture. I highly recommend this chiropractor to anyone struggling with pain and suffering."
Samantha Rodriguez
"Dr. Tony has been my chiropractor for 24 years. He's the absolute best. I have scoliosis and chronic lower back pain. Every time he adjusts my back he provides the necessary follow up exercise and nutrition plan. No other chiropractor has provided me with a holistic well balanced plan for good health."
A. Lacy
"Dr. Tropea is nothing short of a lifesaver. He's not just a chiropractor; he's a true healer. After a traumatic car accident, I wasn't sure if I would ever fully recover, but thanks to Dr. Tropea's expertise and dedication, I'm well on the path to recovery."
Luisa Palacios Robledo
"For the last month and a half, I was seen by Dr. Tony Tropea. He was always very welcoming and friendly. He allowed me to make accommodations so that I wouldn't have trouble getting to my appointments, which I really appreciated. Thanks to him, I can confidently say that the back pain and tension I'd had from my car crash accident have disappeared and significantly lowered!"

How It Works
Call or send the quick form. Most accident patients are seen the same day. Starting early matters: insurers use gaps in treatment to reduce your settlement.
Dr. Tropea examines your injuries, starts treatment, and documents everything for your claim.
We coordinate with your auto insurance or attorney, often with no out-of-pocket cost, so you can focus on healing.
Paying For Your Care
If you were hurt in a car accident, your treatment is usually covered by an insurance claim, not by you. We verify your coverage up front and handle the billing so cost is never the reason you wait to get better.
Coverage like MedPay on your own policy pays for injury care regardless of who caused the crash, with no deductible, and we bill it directly.
If the accident wasn't your fault, the other driver's insurance is responsible for your care, and we help document it for your claim.
Working with an attorney? We can treat on a lien (letter of protection) so you pay nothing until your case settles, with no upfront cost.
Coverage varies by policy and case. We'll confirm exactly what applies to you before treatment begins. Just ask.

Common Questions
In most auto-accident cases you pay nothing out of pocket. Care is billed to your auto insurance (such as MedPay), the at-fault driver's insurance, or handled on a lien with your attorney and paid when your case settles. Call (408) 329-9604 and we will explain your options before your first visit.
As soon as possible, ideally within a few days. Injuries like whiplash often do not hurt until days later, and prompt care also builds the medical record your insurance or attorney will need. Most accident patients are seen the same day.
No. You do not need an attorney to start treatment. If you have one, we coordinate directly with them and provide the records they need. If you do not, we can point you in the right direction.
You can still be treated right away. Your care may be covered by the at-fault driver's insurance or your own auto coverage, and in many cases we treat on a lien so there is no cost to you until your case resolves.
Bring a photo ID, your auto insurance information, the accident or police report if you have it, and your attorney's information if you are working with one. If you do not have all of it, come in anyway and we will help you sort it out.
Yes. Along with auto-accident and injury care, Dr. Tropea treats back and neck pain, sciatica and nerve pain, headaches, and sports injuries with personalized, natural care. Call (408) 329-9604 or request an appointment.
Yes. Our office serves patients in both English and Spanish. Call (408) 329-9604 or request an appointment and we will take care of you in the language you are most comfortable with.
In most cases, yes. After an auto accident your chiropractic care is typically billed to your auto insurance (such as MedPay on your own policy), the at-fault driver's insurance, or handled on a lien with your attorney, so you usually pay nothing out of pocket. Call (408) 329-9604 and we will check your coverage before your first visit.
A lien (also called a letter of protection) lets you get the care you need now and pay for it later, out of your settlement, when your case resolves. If you are working with an attorney after an accident, we can treat on a lien so there is no upfront or out-of-pocket cost to you while your case is pending.
