The work comp doctor works and gets paid by work comp. His best interests are their best interests. You have the right to seek your own physician if you do not like or agree with his assessment. Like I said it can be spun both ways!
Best of luck!

Hi Gatorhead,,,Thanks for your information. My goal is to find my own Doctor.The workmans comp Doc acted like my MRI had no serious findings.His attitude was like it is customery for me to see a Neuro-Surgeon and for my age I am in pretty good shape. I kept reading the MRI and thinking to myself that it seems alot more serious than the Dr was acting like. I am happy to find this website,,,Thanks again for your reply. Annie
