I'm Dr. Ron Losiewicz. Most people call me Dr. Ron. I'm a chiropractic physician in Denver, and I only treat injuries from car crashes. That isn't a marketing angle, it's the actual practice. Every patient who walks into my office has been in a collision, and most of them have an attorney before they ever meet me.
I built it this way on purpose. After enough years of treating crash victims alongside general chiropractic patients, the difference became obvious. People hurt in a car wreck need a slower hand, a longer look, and a doctor who knows how to coordinate care with neurologists, orthopedists, pain management physicians, mental health providers, and personal injury attorneys. They don't need a wellness package or a discount adjustment plan. So I stopped offering everything else.
A car crash injury is its own category. The forces involved are different. The patterns of damage are different. The diagnostic questions are different, especially around concussion and soft tissue injuries that don't show up on a standard X-ray. And the patient is usually walking into my office under stress: pain they didn't have last week, an insurance adjuster calling them, sometimes an attorney they've just met, sometimes a job they can't get back to.
That stress is part of what I treat. I built the practice around it. I take time. I explain what I see before I touch anybody. I tell people what I don't know yet and what we need to find out. The first appointment is about understanding what happened to your body, not selling you a treatment plan.
If you've been told by another office that you "need" a specific number of visits before they've examined you, or you've been put on a drop table the first day, or you've been adjusted with a tool clicking on your spine, you already know why my practice exists.
Manual chiropractic, only. Hands on your spine, with intention, after we've talked. I do not use drop tables, flexion-distraction tables, or instrument-assisted adjustments. No "grip it and rip it."
Alongside manual adjustments, I use:
When a concussion is on the table, I run VITAL CNS neurocognitive testing. It's the same platform used by neurologists, and it gives us real data instead of a five-minute bedside screen. That data is what I use to decide whether you need a referral to a concussion center, a neurologist, or further imaging.
A few things I say to almost every new patient:
You're the boss. It's your body.
We take baby steps and build trust first.
Your file is second. You come first.
I mean those literally. If you don't want to be adjusted on day one, you won't be. If you tell me to stop, I stop. The treatment plan is yours to approve, change, or walk away from.
A car crash injury rarely sits inside one specialty. Part of my job is figuring out who else needs to see you, and getting you in front of them.
The network I refer into includes:
I've worked with most of these providers for years. The point of the network is that you don't have to figure out who to call. I make the call.
The post-doctoral work at the Spine Research Institute of San Diego matters here. It's the program that trains chiropractors specifically in crash biomechanics and the soft tissue injuries that come out of low and high-speed collisions. It's a relatively small group of doctors nationally who complete it.
We talk first. I want to hear about the crash, what hurts now, what hurt in the first 48 hours, what's getting worse, what's getting better, what you've already been told, and what scares you about it. Then I examine you.
If I think we need imaging or a referral before I treat you, I'll tell you. If I think we can start, I'll walk you through what I'm going to do and why, and you decide whether to start that day or wait. You're not on a clock. I don't book back-to-back patients, so the first visit takes as long as it needs to.
You should call if:
You should probably look elsewhere if you're seeking general wellness care, maintenance adjustments, weight loss services, or cash-pay chiropractic. I don't offer any of those, and I'll be honest about that on the phone instead of wasting your visit.
I see patients at three locations across the Denver metro:
Call (720) 328-9033 and ask for me directly. If I'm with a patient, the front desk will take a message and I'll call you back myself.
