How to Find Medical Treatment After an Arizona Commercial Truck AccidentA good starting point after you have been injured in an Arizona 18-wheeler accident is to connect with your primary care provider. You already have an established relationship with your primary care doctor so you can more easily see them and obtain their trusted advice and recommendations on what course of care you should engage in to heal or what other specialists you should be seen by.
