DOL & OWCP Doctors in Irving for Injured Federal Workers
Irving sits next to DFW International Airport, a major federal workplace where TSA and CBP officers work around the clock, and near postal facilities across Irving, Coppell, and Grand Prairie. When federal employees are hurt on the job, they're covered by the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA), not Texas workers' comp. Under FECA you can choose your own initial treating physician, as long as the provider can be paid by OWCP.
Blue Star's federal workers' compensation doctors in Irving are OWCP-enrolled and know the paperwork that keeps a claim moving: the CA-16 treatment authorization, CA-17 duty status reports, CA-20 attending physician's reports, and the "rationalized medical opinion" OWCP needs to connect your injury to your job.
Irving-area federal employees we treat
- TSA officers at DFW International Airport and Dallas Love Field
- CBP officers at DFW Airport ports of entry
- USPS letter carriers, clerks, and mail handlers in Irving, Coppell, and Grand Prairie
- FAA and other federal aviation employees
- VA, IRS, SSA and federal office employees across Dallas County
- Every other FECA-covered federal agency

Car Accident Doctor & Car Wreck Clinic in Irving
Airport Freeway (SH-183), John Carpenter Freeway (SH-114), Loop 12, SH-161, and I-635 carry some of the heaviest traffic in North Texas, and crashes on them bring a steady stream of auto injury patients to our Irving clinic. Many feel fine at the scene and wake up a day or two later with neck pain, back pain, or headaches. That's when an evaluation matters most.
As a personal injury clinic, we treat your injuries and document them from the first visit: how the crash caused them, your treatment, and your progress. Insurers and attorneys rely on those records, and gaps in treatment are one of the first things insurers use to dispute a claim.
Auto accident injuries we treat in Irving
- Whiplash and neck sprain/strain
- Back and disc injuries, including herniated discs and sciatica
- Truck and 18-wheeler wreck injuries
- Shoulder, knee, and wrist injuries from bracing on impact
- Post-accident headaches and soft-tissue injuries
- Rideshare, motorcycle, pedestrian, and slip-and-fall injuries
Personal injury chiropractor + physicians + PT
Many Irving accident clinics offer chiropractic alone. Blue Star coordinates three disciplines in one plan:
- Physicians: diagnosis, medication management, imaging referrals
- Personal injury chiropractors: adjustments for neck and back injuries
- Physical therapists: rehab that restores strength and motion
Severe pain, numbness, a head injury, or trouble breathing? Go to the ER or call 911 first. See us for follow-up care.
Whiplash Treatment in Irving
Whiplash is the most common car accident injury. It happens when a collision, usually a rear-end crash, snaps the head forward and back and strains the muscles, ligaments, and tendons of the neck. Symptoms often appear 24 to 72 hours later.
Evaluate
Exam of the neck, spine, and nerve function, with X-rays or MRI referral when needed.
Adjust
Gentle chiropractic care to restore alignment and range of motion.
Rehabilitate
Physical therapy and soft-tissue work to rebuild neck strength.
Document
Re-evaluations that track your recovery for your claim.
Watch for: neck pain and stiffness, headaches at the base of the skull, shoulder or upper-back pain, reduced range of motion, and arm tingling or numbness.
