Re: workman's compensation

I guess you were examined by either a panel QME examiner or an Agreed Medical Examiner. In your case there may be a need for some reasonable period for recovery and additional therapy after your surgery. However, you need to be evaluated again after your surgery by the same AME or Panel doctor to determine your periods of disability, permanent disability and future medicals. You need to retain an experienced worker's compensation attorney. If you need representation, please call us at 213.388.7070
