Accessibility Statement

Effective: May 27, 2026. Last reviewed: May 27, 2026.

Our Commitment

Dr. Joseph Krzemien, D.C. is committed to digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We design, build, and maintain drjoekrzemien.com so that everyone, including people who use assistive technology, can access our information and services with dignity and independence.

Conformance Target

This site targets conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 at Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium. drjoekrzemien.com is currently partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the standard. We do not claim full conformance because no large website is ever genuinely fully conformant. We list known limitations below.

Measures We Take

Dr. Joe Krzemien and the Georgia Spine and Sports Rehab team take the following measures to support accessibility:

• We treat accessibility as a requirement for all new digital content, not as a remediation step.
• We use semantic HTML, WAI-ARIA where appropriate, and patterns from the W3C WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices Guide.
• We review designs and code for keyboard operability, focus management, color contrast, target size, and text alternatives.
• We test with screen readers including VoiceOver and NVDA on current versions of major browsers.
• We run automated tests with axe-core and Lighthouse on every release.
• We honor the user's reduced-motion preference. Background video, scroll-triggered animations, and motion-rich UI are reduced or removed when the system preference is set.
• We maintain a remediation backlog and track accessibility defects with the same priority as functional defects.

AI and AI-Assisted Content

Portions of drjoekrzemien.com use AI-assisted authoring for selected hero imagery and supplemental visual b-roll. AI-generated assets are reviewed by a person before publication. We do not rely on AI as the sole source of accessibility for primary content. Editorial copy, athlete testimonial transcripts, and pedigree information are human-authored.

If you encounter AI-generated content that is inaccurate, misleading, or inaccessible, contact us through the feedback channels below. We treat AI-output corrections with the same priority as other accessibility defects.

Third-Party Content

Some content on drjoekrzemien.com is provided by third parties, including self-hosted athlete testimonial videos, Google Fonts, and content from The Long Game sister site. We do not control the accessibility of third-party content or services. Where third-party content does not meet our accessibility goals, we offer alternative ways to access the same information or function. Contact us if you encounter a third-party barrier and we will assist or provide an alternative.

No Accessibility Overlay

drjoekrzemien.com does not use an accessibility overlay, widget, or plug-in (sometimes marketed as a one-line-of-code accessibility solution). Independent accessibility experts, the W3C, and federal regulators have raised concerns that overlays do not remediate underlying code, can interfere with assistive technology, and may not protect against accessibility claims. We invest in accessibility at the source instead.

Compatibility

drjoekrzemien.com is designed to be compatible with current versions of major browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari) and with the following assistive technologies tested in the last 12 months: VoiceOver on macOS and iOS, NVDA on Windows, and keyboard-only navigation.

Technologies

Accessibility of drjoekrzemien.com relies on the following technologies in combination with a web browser and any assistive technology installed on your device: HTML, CSS, WAI-ARIA, JavaScript.

Assessment Approach

We assess the accessibility of drjoekrzemien.com by:

• Self-evaluation using axe-core, Lighthouse, and manual review against WCAG 2.2 AA success criteria.
• Assistive technology testing with VoiceOver and NVDA at each major release.
• Quarterly review of the published statement and the underlying code.

Known Limitations

Despite our best efforts, some areas of drjoekrzemien.com may not yet fully conform to WCAG 2.2 AA. Known limitations include:

• Athlete testimonial videos (Dominique Wilkins, Warrick Dunn, Caleb Downs) do not yet have synchronized captions or transcripts published on the page. Transcripts are available on request from the contact above. Synchronized captions are tracked in the remediation backlog.
• The custom wordmark for The Long Game uses CSS-positioned text. It is read in order by screen readers but the visual styling does not transfer.
• Some scroll-driven section reveals may not fully suppress when the user has reduced-motion enabled in legacy browsers. We are tracking this in the remediation backlog.

If you encounter a barrier not listed here, please contact us so we can work on it.
