You can generally see a chiropractor right away after a car accident, but it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider first. A "good" chiropractor will prioritize your safety and perform a thorough exam to determine what treatments are appropriate for your condition. Make sure to avoid chiropractors who do not conduct an exam before treatment, as this can lead to inappropriate care.
I would as soon as possible, especially if you have discomforts that you
didn't have before the accident or if they are persistent. It's always
better to seek care immediately when you are injured, so that the
chiropractor can take care of things before they become a chronic issue.

Immediately. Sooner the better!
Depending on type of injuries you can go and should go immediately for at least an evaluation.
You should see your Chiropractor immediately or as soon as you can after a motor vehicle accident. You would not want to wait weeks before being seen as you need to be corrected prior to scar tissue formation.
I am so sorry to hear that you were in a car accident. It is ideal to start receiving chiropractic care within one week of an accident, however the sooner the better.
Depending on the extent of your injuries, you could be seen the same day.
Seeking help in the way of at least an evaluation right away is preferred due to the fact that symptoms may present some time after the incident and later medical needs/treatment may be questioned by yours or the at-fault insurance agency.
Every accident is different. Every "Body" is different. Unless there is not a life threatening condition or need for emergency care, it is appropriate to see a chiropractor as early as the day of the accident to help assist with evaluating the extent of the injuries. If there is a condition that needs emergency care, the chiropractor will let you know and refer you out.
It best to see a chiropractor right away after an accident
As soon as possible. Just find one that doesn't suck and that works with auto accidents. If they don't do X-rays, walk away
Hello! You can see a chiropractor ANY time after an auto accident. What you don't want to do is wait for a prolonged period of time. Over time, the body will put its healing abilities to act in the injured areas, but can do so without regard to keeping full function and mobility of the spine and/or extremities. A chiropractor can work with the body while it is healing to ensure the maintenance of an area's mobility and functions.
As soon as you can. I would recommend getting into the chiropractor within a few days of a car accident if you are able.
The sooner, the better.
