Legal Question in Workers Comp in California
doctors with criminal backgrounds
I was injured on the job and started seeing a doctor in sacramento california,this doctor told me on my first visit that i needed surgery,then he ended up telling labor and industries i did not need surgery,he has lied about every visit i had with him,i recieved no treatment at all.
I ended up looking him up on the medical board of california to find out he has an extensive criminal background,lots of malpractice suits ,lots of everything.
He just resentley got his license suspended,he has a 6 felony count against him for workmans comp insurance fraud,and other things.
My question is my labor and industries has been closed due to this doctor lying,what can i do about this? do i have a case?

Re: doctors with criminal backgrounds
If you are not permanent and stationary (P&S)you could change your doctor. You could request the insurance company for a QME or AME by an impartial medical examinor. Feel free to call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.
