Our accident doctors have extensive experience treating injuries caused by Uber and Lyft accidents. Dean Hasse and his team provide comprehensive injury care, including chiropractic treatment, physical therapy, diagnostic imaging, medical doctors and orthopedic specialist.
Rideshare services such as Uber and Lyft are widely used throughout Lakewood. You may be injured as a rideshare passenger, or you may be involved in a collision with an Uber or Lyft driver while driving your own vehicle.
Some of the major roadways around Lakewood include:
These roads experience heavy traffic during rush hours, weekends, and holidays. An Uber or Lyft accident can occur whether you are a rideshare passenger, another driver, a cyclist, or a pedestrian.
Rideshare accidents can cause whiplash, back and neck pain, soft‑tissue injuries, and joint damage. Uber and Lyft accident claims are often more complex than standard accidents because multiple insurance policies may be involved. Coverage depends on whether the rideshare driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride request, or actively transporting a passenger at the time of the crash.
Getting evaluated by an experienced accident‑injury provider is one of the most important steps you can take after a rideshare accident. It helps identify injuries that may not be immediately noticeable and creates the medical documentation needed for your claim. Our team can also coordinate referrals to orthopedic specialists, neurologists, and pain‑management physicians.
Uber and Lyft treatment is based on what you injuries are. You may not need specialized care, but we offer it at our location. You will start out with an injury evaluation with Doctor Rafer Leach, MD. After your first appointment, doctor he will sit down and explain the treatment process and provide a plan. This is often called a treatment plan. This plan will include how many office visits you may need to recover from your injury. However, plans change based on your recovery. You may need 6 weeks of care or 3 months. This depends on your injuries and how you heal from them.
Rideshare accidents can cause a lot of confusion with the claims process. We understand that process and know how to help you get the treatment and the services you need after one. Keep in mind that some injuries do not cause pain the day of your rideshare accident. We recommend you come see us immediately. In some, not all cases, pain may not start until hours or days after the collision. This is due to adrenaline. After the adrenaline wears off, that’s when the pain and imflamation start.

You may experience lower back pain, mid-back pain, herniated discs, muscle strains, or nerve compression that can lead to numbness or tingling in the arms or legs.
The force of the crash can cause the spinal discs to shift or become damaged. This leads to pain, stiffness, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or legs.
The jolt of the accident can cause the brain and neck to move rapidly. This may lead to a concussion, or whiplash-related headaches. Symptoms may include persistent headaches, dizziness, nausea, sensitivity to light, confusion, or difficulty concentrating.
These injuries may include muscle strains, sprains, and ligament injuries that may require an MRI to diagnose. It can cause pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
