The doctors who treated me were regular doctors. The WC doctors are doctors paid for by my city. I believe that Drs 1 and 3, fall under this category, but maybe not Dr. 2. Although all 3 are affiliated with the same hospital.

Dr.1 insisted on multiple occasions that I had a metabolic syndrome and on our last visit he said that I should take a leave of absence and use all my vacation time to take care of my health. LOL, as if. The nurse practitioner in my PCPs office laughed her head off when I told her. As it turns out I do not have a metabolic disorder. Every blood test is normal and every test run by the endocrinologist was normal.

I suspect dr. 1 knew I had CRPS from the beginning. He's been doing this job for a long time and he probably has seen CRPS more than an average doctor would.
You would think they would suggest it as a possibility for early treatment.

Every doctor I have seen has groaned when they see this is a work related case.
