Symptoms can take 24 to 72 hours to surface after a Monroe-area collision. Dr. Gregory Mayfield — a former police officer who responded to wrecks on these same roads, 31+ years in practice — evaluates and treats cervical injuries same-day from our Royal Ave office with no upfront cost in most auto cases.

Our Monroe office sits on Royal Ave, minutes from West Monroe, ULM, and the medical district — with a second Mayfield location in Shreveport if you're ever out west.

A former police officer who responded to wrecks on these same Twin Cities roads, Dr. Mayfield has spent 31+ years helping Northeast Louisiana move without pain — and is qualified as an expert witness in motor-vehicle-accident cases.
Whiplash is a cervical spine injury caused by rapid forward-backward acceleration of the head — common in rear-end collisions on I-20 and US-165. The resulting micro-tears, disc irritation, and cervical misalignment don't respond to rest alone. Dr. Mayfield's approach locates the specific segments under stress and restores their motion before scar tissue limits your range.

From ULM students and Warhawk athletes to Graphic Packaging and hospital shift workers to anyone rear-ended on I-20 or US-165 — we know the loads, the hours, and the injuries Northeast Louisiana lives with.
Desk strain, backpack shoulders, and athletic injuries from a campus full of bodies in motion — care that works around class and practice.
Graphic Packaging, the hospitals, oilfield, and the trades wear on a spine. We schedule around real Monroe and West Monroe shifts.
Two of the busiest roads in NELA cross right here. We treat whiplash & disc injuries and handle the insurance and attorney side.

Whiplash symptoms commonly appear 24 to 72 hours after a collision — sometimes longer. The adrenaline response immediately following a crash can mask cervical pain and stiffness. This is why getting evaluated at our Monroe office promptly after any accident is critical: early documentation protects your insurance claim and early care prevents the injury from becoming chronic.
