Dr. Shelly McPhatter, DC, has spent over 16 years treating patients recovering from car accidents, workplace injuries, and everyday pain that will not go away on its own. Dr. McPhatter completed a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Physiology at The Ohio State University, and later completed her Doctorate at Parker University in Dallas, Texas. Based in Newark, her practice was built around a simple observation: accident victims need more than a quick adjustment. They need a clinician who understands both the physical recovery and the paperwork trail that often decides whether a claim succeeds.
Schedule Consultation with Dr. McPhatter
Dr. McPhatter's approach centers on chiropractic care for soft tissue, spinal, and joint injuries most commonly seen after car accidents, slip and falls, and work related incidents. Her patients often arrive within days of an accident, sometimes before pain has fully set in, and leave with both a treatment plan and documentation they can rely on later if a claim moves forward.
Patients do not need a referral to schedule a visit. Many come in without an attorney yet retained, still deciding how to handle their claim, and the clinic treats them the same way it treats patients who arrive with legal representation already in place: with a full exam and a plan focused on getting them well.
