Chiropractor Serving Estero, FL
Novaré Injury Care and Rehab
Medically integrated injury care and chiropractic for Estero residents, delivered from our fully equipped Fort Myers clinic, 15 to 20 minutes north on US-41 or I-75. We don't have an office in Estero, and we won't pretend otherwise. What we do have is imaging, in-house medical oversight, and legal-grade documentation that a standard chiropractic office can't match. Dr. Ivan Bracic, DC has 30+ years of experience treating auto accident patients. Whiplash, herniated discs, and sciatica documented, treated, and restored.
Do You Have a Chiropractor Near Estero for Auto Accident Injuries?
We don't have a physical clinic in Estero, and we won't pretend otherwise. What we do have is a fully equipped, medically integrated injury care center in Fort Myers, 15 to 20 minutes from most Estero ZIP codes on US-41 or a quick run up I-75. Patients from Coconut Point, Miromar Outlets, and the FGCU corridor make that drive every week for care that isn't available in a standard chiropractic office.
If you've been in a crash, dealing with a herniated disc, or living with sciatica that a weekend at Koreshan State Park can't fix, this is where Estero patients come. Novaré Injury Care and Rehab handles whiplash, disc injuries, sciatica, and post-accident documentation that holds up when an insurance adjuster or attorney reviews it. Dr. Ivan Bracic, DC and Dr. Javier Sosa, MD provide care that most standalone chiropractic offices in Lee County can't match on equipment, credentials, or legal documentation depth.

Who Drives from Estero to See Us?
Estero is a growing community near Coconut Point, Miromar Outlets, and the FGCU corridor, and the people here want real answers when an injury disrupts their routine. The Estero patients we treat fall into a few consistent groups.
- Drivers hit on US-41, Corkscrew Road, or Estero Parkway who need same-week injury evaluation before Florida's 14-day PIP deadline closes
- Residents of the 33928, 33967, 34134, and 34135 ZIP codes dealing with disc pain, sciatica, or whiplash that hasn't cleared on its own
- Estero professionals and FGCU-area residents who want an imaging-backed diagnosis from a chiropractor before committing to a care plan
- Patients who've been to a chiropractor for a crash and got five minutes and no X-ray, and want to start over with a real workup
- Spanish-speaking families in Estero and the broader Lee County corridor who need a bilingual doctor
- Anyone whose attorney has advised them to document their injury thoroughly
If any of that sounds familiar, the drive north is worth it. We also treat patients from nearby Bonita Springs, San Carlos Park, and the southern Lee County corridor.
Services Estero Patients Come to Fort Myers For
Every treatment below is delivered in-house at our Summerlin Road clinic. There's no sending you across town for imaging or medical clearance. It all happens under one roof.

Why Drive to Fort Myers Instead of Staying in Estero?
That's a fair question, and here's the honest answer. Most chiropractic offices in and around Estero offer manual adjustments, maybe some electrical stimulation, and a brief visit. There's nothing wrong with that for minor muscle soreness. But if you've had a car accident, a real disc problem, or need documentation that will survive an insurance dispute, those tools aren't enough. Novaré operates as a licensed Medical Corporation, and that structure lets us do things a standalone chiropractor can't.
Medically Integrated — Not a Chiropractic-Only Clinic
We're a licensed Medical Corporation. Dr. Javier Sosa, MD, board-certified in Family Medicine with 38+ years of experience, provides medical integration for injury cases. That includes the Emergency Medical Condition (EMC) determination Florida requires to unlock the full $10,000 in PIP benefits. You won't have to visit a separate doctor for that.
MRI First, Then Treatment
We require an MRI before beginning spinal decompression. Dr. Bracic has specialized post-graduate training in reading MRI images and radiology reports. He personally reviews and marks up your imaging before your appointment, so your care plan targets the exact disc level causing your problem. No guessing.
Legal Documentation Depth
Dr. Bracic is IME Certified and holds a Masters Certification in the AMA Permanent Medical Impairment Examination. Our records capture mechanism of injury, seat position, angle of impact, neurological findings, and treatment progression. Attorneys across Southwest Florida refer patients here because our records hold up in court.
Equipment Most Offices Don't Have
$25,000 flexion-distraction spinal tables (most clinics use $1,000 models), AI-guided Class IV laser, in-house digital X-ray, and acoustic shockwave therapy. The drive from Estero is 15 to 20 minutes. The difference in equipment is considerably larger.
Bilingual Team, Same-Day Availability
Dr. Bracic and Dr. Sosa are both fluent in Spanish, and our front desk staff is bilingual. We offer same-day and next-day appointments for injury patients, so Estero drivers inside the 14-day PIP window can get seen before the deadline closes. After your first visit you have direct access to your doctor for urgent care decisions.

What Novaré Patients Say
Real reviews from patients treated at our Fort Myers clinic, including the Estero-area residents who make the short drive north.
Trusted by 30,000+ patients across a 30-year career.
“Excellent experience, Dr Ivan and his team went above and beyond my expectations. I was nervous about going to a chiropractor but I was forced to schedule an apt due to increasing back and neck pain. The staff from the front desk, to the clinical side it’s amazing and they will make sure you feel comfortable and welcomed. Dr Ivan it’s very knowledgeable and addressed problem areas spot on. I was very impressed and grateful for the great relieve I felt right after the first appointment. I scheduled the recommended appointments in order to finish the recommended treatment. Thank you Dr Ivan and team for a great experience!”
“I was scared of going to the chiro before, but had whiplash form a car accident that needed to be addressed. Dr. Ivan was very patient, helpful, and informative. I started feeling better and more informed every single appointment. Their massages therapist is also the best I have ever experienced, and mind you I have been to several before. Between the two I have felt much better. Reasonable prices and great results!!!”
“I was apprehensive about changing my chiropractor but so happy I did. Dr. Ivan Bracic has the newest types of equipment to treat a variety of modalities. He is very knowlegable and thorough with a super kind attitude. He performed manual adjustments that made me feel like a new person. In addition, I received soft tissue work (massage) for my tight areas. I highly recommend Dr Bracic”
“Walked into the office after multiple Drs and multiple medications that weren’t helping me with my severely herniated disks, and was met by someone who was willing to hear me out and actually asked about my history. Dr.Ivan and the other girls fort Myers office are awesome and very friendly. I’m only halfway through my original treatment and I look forward to seeing them every time I have to go in. Highly recommend if you need anything done it’s worth the visit.”
“Dr. Ivan & his staff are hands down the best chiropractic services ever!!! His care, attention, knowledge, concern & wisdom for his patients can’t be beat & truly can’t be found anywhere else!”
Florida's 14-Day PIP Rule: What Estero Drivers Must Know
$10,000 in benefits. 14 days to act.
- Florida requires anyone injured in a car accident to see a qualifying medical provider within 14 days to access their full $10,000 in PIP benefits
- Miss that window and your coverage may drop to $2,500 or disappear entirely
- Florida also requires an Emergency Medical Condition (EMC) determination to unlock the full $10,000. We provide that in-house through Dr. Sosa, so Estero patients don't need to visit a second facility
- Whiplash and soft tissue injuries often worsen over the first 48 to 72 hours. If you were in a crash on Corkscrew Road, near Miromar Outlets, or heading into Bonita Springs, call us the same day

What Estero Patients Should Expect on Their First Visit
Your first appointment is $200. You'll be here 60 to 90 minutes, and that's intentional.
If You Don't Have an MRI
Dr. Bracic evaluates you, takes a digital X-ray in-house, and reviews the findings with you on the spot. He'll determine if an MRI is needed and coordinate it through our Southwest Florida imaging network. You'll receive up to two therapy services during this visit to ease acute pain, and you leave with your imaging on a flash drive.
If You Already Have an MRI
Coordinate with our staff beforehand so we can access your images through the hospital or imaging network, or bring a disc to your appointment. Dr. Bracic spends 15 to 30 minutes reviewing and marking up your images before you arrive, walks you through what he sees, performs a physical exam, and builds your care plan. You'll also receive therapy or a decompression trial at the same visit.
Either Way, You Leave With Proof
You leave with a documented diagnosis, a clear plan, and imaging you own. That's what Estero patients drive to Fort Myers to get. We accept Personal Injury Protection (PIP) auto insurance and self-pay.
