Auto Accident Injury Care for Wilmington Residents
After a car accident, the gap between ER discharge and proper follow-up care is where injuries get missed and cases get weakened. Many soft tissue injuries, whiplash presentations, and traumatic brain injuries don't show up on an ER scan — they emerge in the days and weeks that follow. We specialize exclusively in auto accident injury treatment and workers' compensation care, which means every protocol we use, and every report we generate, is designed for this exact situation.
We serve patients from Wilmington, Pike Creek, Greenville, Brandywine, and throughout northern New Castle County. If you were recently discharged from the ER after a collision and haven't yet established care with a specialist, the window for building a strong clinical record is open now — and it won't stay open indefinitely.
One Provider for Every Injury Your Case May Involve
Most accident victims end up bouncing between providers — a chiropractor here, a neurologist there, a physical therapist somewhere else. That fragmentation creates documentation gaps that reduce settlement value. At Optimus, chiropractic care, TBI evaluation, neuropsychological testing, functional rehabilitation, EMG and NCV electrodiagnostic testing, and advanced therapies including adaptive contrast oxygen therapy are all available under a single provider umbrella.
Our clinical team is led by Dr. Robert Buckley, D.C., DACRB, a Diplomate in Functional Rehabilitation with more than 35 years of injury-focused clinical experience — among the most credentialed personal injury chiropractors in Delaware. Dr. Anthony Doran, Psy.D., our nationally recognized neuropsychologist ranked in the 99th percentile of his field, is available via telehealth for neuropsychological evaluation and TBI documentation.
Services available to Wilmington-area patients include:
- Auto accident injury treatment, including whiplash, soft tissue injury, neck injury, and low back injury
- Traumatic brain injury diagnosis and evaluation, including post-concussion syndrome treatment
- Functional neurological rehabilitation and remote physical therapy
- EMG and NCV electrodiagnostic testing
- Adaptive contrast oxygen therapy for TBI recovery
- Dry needling and acupuncture as adjunct injury care

The Clinical Team Behind Your Care
Dr. Robert Buckley, D.C., DACRB
Dr. Buckley holds a Diplomate in Functional Rehabilitation — one of the most advanced post-doctoral credentials available in chiropractic medicine — and brings more than 35 years of clinical experience focused exclusively on personal injury and traumatic injury care. He is among the most credentialed injury-focused chiropractors practicing in Delaware.
Dr. Anthony Doran, Psy.D.
Dr. Doran is a nationally recognized neuropsychologist available to Optimus patients via telehealth, performing at the 99th percentile of his field. His involvement means neuropsychological testing and TBI evaluation happen within your care team — not through a separate referral that creates documentation gaps.
Why Accident Victims Choose Optimus Over General Chiropractic Practices
General chiropractic practices see a wide range of patients — maintenance care, wellness adjustments, sports injuries. When a personal injury case enters that environment, the clinical record often reflects it: treatment notes that weren't written with litigation in mind, missing objective findings, and providers who aren't experienced with the documentation standards attorneys require.
Optimus sees only personal injury and workers' compensation patients. Every clinical decision, every report format, and every diagnostic protocol is calibrated to this population. Patients who come to us after a car accident in Wilmington are treated by providers who have spent their careers in this specific clinical and legal context — not providers who see injury cases occasionally between wellness appointments.
Our 5-star Google rating across 59 reviews and our 2025 Best of Business award reflect what patients and referring attorneys consistently experience: thorough care, clear communication, and documentation that does what it needs to do.
Frequently Asked Questions — Wilmington Personal Injury Care
Do I need a referral from my doctor to be seen at Optimus?
No referral is required. You can contact us directly after your accident to schedule an evaluation. If you have an attorney, we're also happy to coordinate intake through their office.I was seen at the ER and told I was fine. Should I still come in?
Yes. Emergency rooms are equipped to rule out life-threatening injuries — fractures, bleeds, and structural damage. They are not set up to evaluate soft tissue injuries, whiplash, or traumatic brain injury, all of which can present days or weeks after a collision. A post-accident evaluation with an injury specialist is a critical step that the ER discharge process does not replace.Does Optimus accept patients on a lien basis?
Yes. We work with patients on medical liens, meaning treatment costs are resolved at the conclusion of your case. We encourage you to discuss the specifics with our intake team, who can walk you through how this works in the context of your situation.I'm a Wilmington attorney. How do I refer a client to Optimus?
