If you are already under care in Iowa City
Iowa City has some of the best medical care in the state, and nothing on this page is a suggestion that you leave it. If a neurologist is managing your condition, if an endocrinologist is handling your diabetes, if you are on medication that helps, all of that continues. We want to know about it, and we would rather see your recent bloodwork than repeat it unnecessarily.
What we add is a different focus. Much of medical management for neuropathy is aimed at controlling pain and slowing the underlying disease, which matters enormously. What often does not get done is systematic measurement of sensation, balance and circulation over time, and a non surgical plan built around moving those numbers. That is the gap this clinic works in.
What we do not do
We do not tell people to stop taking prescribed medication. We do not offer a cure for nerve damage, because nobody honestly can. We do not treat conditions that need urgent medical assessment, and if your symptoms point that way we will send you back rather than book you in.
What we do
A full baseline assessment of sensation, vibration, reflexes, strength, balance and circulation. A plan aimed at the cause where one is treatable. Regular retesting against your baseline. And a straight answer at the review point about whether it is working.
Bring anything you already have: recent labs, a medication list, any nerve testing that has been done. It saves time and it makes the assessment more useful.
Your doctor
Mohamed Karim, D.C.
Dr. Karim earned his bachelor's degree at the University of Iowa, which is where he worked out that natural healthcare was what he actually wanted to do. That took him to Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, where he was nominated for the Clinical Excellence Award for his technique work and his interaction with patients.
He is board certified in Chronic Intractable Pain and Neuropathy through the American College of Physical Medicine, and board certified in Functional Neurology through the American Functional Neurology Institute. He is originally from Coralville and served fourteen years as a volunteer firefighter there before opening his practice in North Liberty.
What the assessment involves
The drive
Iowa City to North Liberty
From most of Iowa City the simplest route is north through Coralville on Highway 965, which takes about fifteen minutes and avoids the interstate entirely. From the east side, I-380 north to the North Liberty exit is usually quicker. Either way you finish at 1395 Jordan St Unit C, with free parking directly outside and a level entrance from the lot.
Evening appointments on Monday and Wednesday run until 7pm, which is deliberate. A neuropathy plan means coming in repeatedly over a stretch of weeks, and for people working in Iowa City that is far easier after hours than in the middle of the afternoon.
Questions
Iowa City patient questions
I am already seeing a neurologist. Is this a conflict?
No. We work alongside medical management rather than replacing it, and we will not advise you to stop anything a physician has prescribed. Tell us who is treating you and what for, and bring recent labs if you have them.
Can you cure my neuropathy?
No, and be wary of anyone who says they can. Where the cause is treatable and nerves are irritated rather than destroyed, real improvement happens. Where axons have already been lost, that part does not come back. What often improves is pain, balance and the rate of decline.
Why drive to North Liberty when I live in Iowa City?
Because of what the appointment contains. Board certification in Chronic Intractable Pain and Neuropathy, a full baseline assessment, and retesting so you can see whether anything is changing. Fifteen minutes is a short trip for that.
What if my neuropathy is from chemotherapy?
Chemotherapy induced neuropathy is common and we see it. The assessment is the same, the plan works around your oncology treatment, and coordination with your oncologist matters. Mention it when you call.
Do you take students and university staff?
Of course. There is no referral required and the first consultation is free, so it costs you nothing but the drive to find out whether we can help.
What else do you offer?
All seven clinic services, including hormone therapy, IV therapy, medical weight loss, gut health, ozone therapy and infrared sauna.
